This was but one city.

Arson damage occurred in Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and the Twin Cities suburb of Apple Valley between May 27 and May 30, 2020. Reports by government officials and the news media varied as to the number of property locations in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area that were damaged by fire, as some structure fires affected multiple businesses or adjacent structures. The FBI and ATF tracked 164 structure fires due to arson during the unrest. The federal government's number reflected buildings affected by arson and not individual acts of arson.^[2] Reporters for Bring Me The News,^[23] The Pioneer Press,^[24] and Star Tribune^[1] separately compiled lists of property damage with the help of reader submissions. Other news media reported on arson damage to specific property locations and businesses. In Minneapolis, the city's assessor published a database of damage to parcels, but it did not account for affected parcels with multiple buildings or for multi-use buildings.^[25] In Saint Paul, the city's fire department responded to 55 fires, but not all fires were to buildings.^[26]
Most properties affected by arson were commercial in nature, but the impact was felt beyond businesses. Arson fires damaged buildings containing schools, non-profit organizations, government services, and private residences.^[7] Many property locations owned and operated by ethnic minorities and immigrants were among those damaged by fire,^[27] as were several locations of national chain stores. In Minneapolis, 35 families were displaced by structure fires.^[14]^[15] During the riots, some business owners posted signs that the establishment was Black, minority, or independently owned, but the signs had varying success at dissuading damage. Some residents that lived in multi-buildings or above store fronts resorted to posting signs that people lived above or inside to persuade against arson.^[28]^[29]^[30]^[31] In the immediate aftermath of the riots, local officials estimated that rebuilding damaged commercial corridors in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area could take 10 years.^[15]
This list is of property locations that were damaged by arson fires during George Floyd protests in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan region of the U.S. state of Minnesota. To be included on the list, the fire damage must be reported in a reliable source as occurring during the period of civil disorder in the five days after Floyd's murder on May 25, 2020. This list excludes freestanding objects that were set on fire during the riots, such as vehicles, bus shelters, trees, or piles of objects in the street. It also excludes intentional building fires that occurred during subsequent events of the 2020-2023 Minneapolis–Saint Paul racial unrest after May 2020.

the discussion is about martial law ---- which has been used over ?? 60 times in American history from memory

the discussion is not about riots or unrest - it is about threats to use martial law

having a potential president who promises

- to be a dictator, if only for one day
- who told a group to vote for him this once - they wouldn't have to vote again
- who has now spoken of promising to use martial law
- who has promised vengeance on political enemies

do you need some kiddies with crayons to read the messages for you????
