Set to do some last minute Christmas shopping? Not if the Black Lives Matter protesters have their way. The group vowed to disrupt shoppers at Minnesota’s Mall of America tomorrow, even if a judge grants the mall’s request to bar them from doing so.
Miski Noor, one of the organizers, said after a hearing Monday about the mall’s request for a temporary restraining order that the protest would take place Wednesday, no matter what.
“We’re not going to be canceling the protest,” she told reporters after the hearing in Hennepin County District Court. “Us not showing up and us not speaking would be the mall winning.”
The mall wants to avoid the type of disruption caused by a Christmas-time demonstration last year, when thousands of protesters angry over the absence of charges involving police killings of unarmed black men in Ferguson, Missouri, and New York City forced the temporary closure of mall stores.
Judge Karen Janisch indicated that she could rule on the restraining order request within hours, giving police the power to detain anyone seen associated with the movement on mall property.
Beyond barring the protest, the mall’s request would also require organizers to remove posts with plans of the demonstration from social media and to send out notifications that the event has been canceled. The mall, which is privately owned and doesn’t allow protests, contends that another demonstration would mean more lost sales for its vendors.
After attempting to directly dissuade Black Lives Matter from following through last week, mall attorney Susan Gaertner said a restraining order would make it clear that the mall – privately owned property – prohibits demonstrations.
“The Mall of America is no more an appropriate place for a demonstration than it would be around my dinner table,” she said.

Blacks are about 12% of the population and Black Lives matter are about zilch of the population. They should be dealt with rather handily. That’s if Law Enforcement have the balls to take care of Business.
Black Lives Matter is a newly emerged supremacist group. Like other supremacist groups in America they are based in hatred and nonsense. We must stop them from becoming influential. All lives matter rules America. Expect people who deal and spread violence to become jailed for hate crimes.
that would be nice ex cept Obummer would block any attempt to stop them. Race card continues to stop common discourse in America. We must be politically correct. Go Trump/Cruz!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cruz and Romio are ilegal and voted for ilegals to become citizens..there is a information law where you can read what they did,,,wake up …even on the debate when they got into a fight, exposed them. our top people admit they either lied them or now.. we know it is now and then.. TRUMP 2016 the only one who speaks the truth, the rest need to go…Trump might pick his daughter to be vice.. good idea
Your a missed informed mamma bear
No The Donald and his daughter is to much he must choose one of the next three runners up! I have heard practically nothing about his daughter,,,,,,,,,just saying,,,,
Find a legal way to put all the protesters in jail for an extended period of time….and enforce the death sentence for anyone who kills an officer of the law.
batons to the head. ram a few women into a concrete wall and see how long they are out. No, it’s time to deal with terrorists like they are terrorists. they are anti america in every way. I hope I don’t see any with something in my hands like a steel pipe, They will go down.
What happened to protecting the store owners and the shopping public. get some guts and do what you have to do to break up these THUGS
PC!! It’s killing us
That’s exactly what it’s designed to do.
That & multi-culture BS. I am not a hyphen AMERICAN, I am an AMERICAN second generation, and I do like my roots BUTTT I am an AMERICAN!!!
We’re proud to have you!
Black lives matter only if the soul is not darkened by hate.
I agree, just like the campus riot of the 60’s that happened every week until May 4th 1970 when the Ohio national guard shot a few of them at Kent State and like magic campus riots stopped over night and we have not had another one since. These people are being financed from foreign countries and the far left inside the US. This is yet another Marxist front like ACORN and the Wall Street 1% crowd from a few years back. They are thugs and should be dealt with as such.
One word: ABSOLUTELY!
If I do any last minute shopping, I’ll have a little friend with me – my Taurus 145. If any ‘we-be’ messes with me, they might just “Say hello to my little friend!” Catch my drift?
and don’t be afraid to have your “little friend” speak loud and clear. Surej wish I had one of the .380 variety.
I agree, if they were to put all that energy into education our black communities, to me we wouldn’t have these problem. Let start at home!
Sal: Why would any one in law enforcement do anything when it involves black criminals Officer Wilson was proven to have done nothing wrong when dealing with Michael Brown, but even after being put through legal hell he lost his job and is in hiding due to the media and the thug in the black community. If I were a police officer I would let the thugs have the streets. That is what the public wants.
Hey Black Lives Matter protesters, what about the 150,000+ black babies killed by planned parenthood?
I,m sure the progessive Marxist are very happy about that. Margaret Sanger founder of that abortion mill is now burning in hell for her demented thinking.
the silence is deafening isn’t it? how about all the blacks killed in Baltimore and Chicago by other blacks? Silence.
The lives of Black thugs do not matter; no more than the lives of Black Panthers or Black Muslims.
I LONG FOR THE DAYS WHEN THE POLICE HAD BILLY CLUBS AND WERE NOT AFRAID TO USE THEM.
me too!
black LIVES DON’T MATTER TO THE blacks; WHY THE HELL SHOULD THEY MATTER TO ME?
Sad commentary, but accurate enough, eh?
They only want the Agenda Blacks Gone Wild producing black deaths.
Paul we have the same name and same thoughts. My black community should start at home cleaning our house first before we start telling others how to clean theirs!
These blacks are illiterate. Most are on welfare. They will riot for thugs, but when a black boy is murdered by other blacks they do nothing. Black boy trying to protect 3 young girls was murdered by blacks and nothing said. They are racist!
If they really,truly believed that black ;lives mattered, they would be in the black neighborhoods, protesting their black brothers and sisters, stop killing each other ! How do they expect to be taken seriously when they don’t start at the core of the problem.Oh, maybe black lives only matter when police officers kill a law breaking thug. poor fellow, Now we got an excuse to riot !!
taze them and or gas. then take to a remote area and leave.,,in a cage.
Bring in the National Guard & arrest all of these m-fers. If they fight back, shoot their azz.
They should be put in jail, kept there and their welfare checks cut off. Black lives do not matter any more then any other life. These people need to go back to the zoo they escaped from.
I agree with Paul before Black Lives Matter can run around condemning everyone else, you need to straighten out your own segment of society then and only then can you be taken seriously, killing is killing no matter who has the gun.
Any lives matter. Color is not the deciding factor. Breaking the law is. If you would like to receive better treatment then go back to the traditional family. A mother, a father and as many children as you can afford with no help from the government. The legislation Congress just passed to add another trillion dollars to the national debt should have included a method to help thugs decide if they are ready to destroy property and lives and to ransack and burn property. Arrest ten of the worst troublemakers; jail them, read them their rights , fingerprint them, remove giveaways , such as food stamps. tax rebates, residences, and all their freebies, and tell them to go back to the crowd and use their free speach to relate what just happened. That should convence them what freedom is all about; otherwise you are inviting anarchey. Have a good day! Dave Sanders
sounds like a plan that Trump and Cruz will implement!
please explain something to me, do black lives matter in the city of Chicago when 95percent of the killings are blacks killing blacks, not to mention the women and children that are violently murdered by their own people
It’s called a double standard. In my eyes “all lives matter”.
Water Cannons, tear gas and billy clubs. That’s what they understand. So use them.
Water cannons? What’s wrong with real cannons?
Black Lives Matter?
Call it what it is:
Blacks Gone Wild.
We can thank our militant Marxist president for the civil unrest in the u.s. The psychological warfare being perpetrated on America is many fold. Class warfare, racial warfare, ecomonic warfare. The asshole traitor, tyrant known as barrack hussan Obama is tearing the very fabric of America. And Americas are now allowing it. We all know who he is.
Correct! Exactly as he and his handlers planned–and announced–right from the start.
Tell’m mama bear.
Let them spend Christmas in a jail, maybe one of the jail’s chaplain’s will celebrate ChristMass for them–they all need to hear the Gospel of Christ Jesus!
These blackies don’t want to work, they are only interested in causing trouble for the rest of us, by us I mean, asians, arab, caucasions, Islanders and any other color than black…These people are truly a joke and I guess that means the president and his crony’s. They better enjoy the ride now cause once this administration leaves the oval office things are going to change and they will be held accountable for all the damage they are doing.
I bet al and jessie will be there. Two low life idiots who get rich off of ignorant people in the black community who listen to their race baiting bull
Law enforcement needs to bring in the paddy wagons and haul them all out to the “farm”, and let them work off their frustrations over the holidays. I’m surprised Obama isn’t stumping for them.
This is not a good day to be a police officer, the majority of our American police officer’s want to do a good job inspite of what the public thinks, I know I was cop for 37 years. Fortunately for me I was able to retire on good terms.The problem is the politicians and the public will not let the police do there job.
that’s what liberal give us.
I just commented absolutely, and your comment management stated that I had already made that comment. Bull Shit, you frigging idiots. I have commented before on other things, but pertinent to this article, THAT WAS THE FIRST COMMENT. IS THIS A SIGN OF YOUR EQUITY? I scrolled back up, and it appears that you did print my comment so that is much more reasonable. I do not lie, but I do always say the same thing, it is the truth, so WHY WOULD I CHANGE IT, NO NEW EVIDENCE HAS BEEN WITNESSED TO PROVE THAT I AM WRONG. THANKS
These A-hole Black people need the EFFECT OF AN IRON FIST, without the benefit of a velvet glove.
Iron man II, maybe the hammer of Thor?
Oren suggested use of water cannons. I agree, I have seen how the Germans can disburse a rowdy crowd in a matter of minutes using this method. It really works, with less probability of bodily injury too.
The Black Lives Matter movement is a black version of the KKK but, instead of burning crosses on selected lawns: they riot, loot and burn selected city blocks. The BLM does not care about helping blacks just how much they can loot and burn.
This is a real shame that you have to call people monkeys. This is exactly what Obama wants is a race riot to call martial law so that he can stay into office. Grow up already with the name calling. Not everyone is in the black lives movement. God wishes that none should perish! All lives matters! Don’t fall for the bait! He is trying to put us against each other, unless you felt that way about blacks aside from the black lives matters movement! If so, I’ll pray that you would look at the heart of a person and not the color of their skin! You can’t lump everyone into the same category. God help us all!
If this were the Kkk all of America would be upset. Black lives matter need to crawl back under the rock they crawled out of…we,re sick of your racial tirades and you all are nothing but a pathetic bunch of losers!!!! Go Trump!!!!!!!
This organization is filled with a bunch of IDIOTS that have no brains and can’t think for themselves. They should be ashamed for taking family FUN time away from FAMILIES who are off work and kids out of school and spending time together! How can this organization claim they stand for rights when they are in everyone’s face to try and voice an opinion that doesn’t hold water. What about the 2 black cops that killed a 4 yr old, wounded his dad by unloading 18 bullets into their truck? How about the black guy that shot up 17 people in a Louisiana park on Nov, 28, and nothing in the press was even mentioned? It seems they want everything HANDED to them, while everyone else has worked for what they have. These white people that are there beside them should show that whites are not as bigoted as they are. We have a BOZO in the white house that caused this riff between the races and they are being USED!!! This is CHRISTMAS, we have a JEWISH MESSIA that was born to save everyone, but it seems everybody has forgotten that too. Hopefully, and I’m praying that Obama will not SCREW AMERICA or AMERICANS for the remainder of the time he’s in the PEOPLES HOUSE. This has just been a sad time, but one thing that hits home, especially now is GENESIS 6:5-7. If HE felt that way then, how much more so NOW!!!!
It’s becoming increasingly clear that Black Lives Matter is nothing more than a group of thugs. I thought this group had a great name. Unfortunately they’ve soiled it by moving from seeking justice to causing mayhem.
This would be an act of terror and should be treated as so and gives police the right to arrest or shoot if necessary and if more riots start then clean house people are tired of the bull s–t and this crap has to be stopped before it gets any worse.
What ever happened to police protecting the general public? I go back to the use of rubber bullets , fire hoses being sprayed on ‘unhappy protesters, and the use of mace being sprayed into unruly crowds! Lets revisit those methods as this situation has become ridiculous now1
