If they have to replace cars, the money needed could have been used for another program or anything else the city needs that may not be able to fund now.

The mayors of St Paul and Minneapolis have noted that the arson was "professional," which points to Black Block, Proud Boys, Boogaloo, and other white supremacist groups. Are they sticking it to The Man, or are they sowing chaos and hurting the POC even more?
