SOME PARTING WORDS
Newt Gingrich, the former House Speaker joined Sean Hannity on “Hannity” Monday night and gave his reactions to the unrest in Minnesota and warned against taking resources away from law enforcement.
“The danger we’ve got,” Gingrich said, “which we’ve had before – the Black Panther movement we had in the late 1960s, for example – engaged in fairly large-scale rioting, 2,500 bombs, that went off in 1969 and 1970, there were riots in an amazing number of cities in the 1960s and part of what you seem to have here is society can’t yet decide whether or not it favors law and order in the classic sense.”
