VL Freeman asks:
What is the Minneapolis plan to help those that are not fortunate enough to
buy the necessary things needed for just in case? I am concerned for the
homeless, and those of lower income, that cannot afford to buy some of the
basic things needed to provide themselves and
A few thoughts after a quick look: This response demonstrates an outcome

I went to the anti-war protest today too---and it was also
the biggest crowd I've seen in a long time. I arrived at Lagoon and
Hennepin around 1: 15 and people were already densely packed on the
