When I heard Black Lives Matter was planning to disrupt the MN State Fair, I could only wonder how that was going to gain public sympathy. In fact, I imagined that such a plan could have been hatched by a preschool child in order to gain attention—without considering the consequences. Apparently the "largely peaceful" protest included marchers chanting, "Pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon." That may have police upset, but this also sounds like a very immature person created it—so maybe we can chalk the whole thing up to a group that is run by people who have not yet matured emotionally.
