During the moment of silence, a chant of "ICE OUT NOW" roared through the crowd about 50 times.

Usually the hall around the arena is bustling, full of positive, excited energy. Today it is quiet, subdued, and about as exciting as the airport terminal near the end of the day.
We are a fanbase in mourning.

If you’ve read the StarTribune over the years, you’ve seen the photojournalism of Richard Tsong-Taatarii. Most recently the viral photo of the Federal thug who pepper-sprayed an already subdued man, in the face, at point blank range.
My personal brush with Tsong-Taatarii was in 1999, and was much more peaceful. Skating with my daughter.
I hope for peace again. And accountability for the violent thugs, those giving the orders, & those enabling them. #MNastodon #ice #journalism #Minnesota
