this is what we folks here in the twin cities metro & across MN would really like you to understand —
1. they’re still here harming & destabilizing our communities
2. the reverberations will be felt for a very long time

Wow.

Sign for a lost parrot, with a green head and white around his little bird eyes, named Bam Bam, with information about how to contact owner if found, and what to do. Bam Bam lst seen at 23rd and Overton in northwest Portland, and owner can be reached at 626-550-5782.
