Mpls resident, a black man, had compassion for the Nazi Lange in Mpls a week ago.
Please go the link and watch the 2 min video, all the way to the end.

A black man saves the Nazi in Minneapolis from angry crowd.
This video is exquisite!
UPDATE: This just keeps getting better! Found an article that a black trans woman and black woman picked up Lang after he fled the hotel with a mob after him.
They had no idea who he was! This part of the story is very amazing too!
Unexpected getaway drivers
Lang retreated into a hotel lobby four blocks from City Hall, and then came outside about 10 minutes later.
Daye Gottsche, 22, and Aleigha Henderson, 25, were driving by the hotel, heading to a bar when a bloodied man approached their car at a red light. They had no idea the man was Lang.
"All of a sudden there's a bloody man running up to our car and begging for help. We let him in," Gottsche told the Star Tribune. "We're surrounded by a crowd of people that is clearly angry because they are like beating on the car door, trying to bust open the windows. It was insane."
Protesters opened the back door and tried pulling Lang out of the car and kicking him as he pleaded with Henderson to drive. She peeled off once the light turned green.
"Who did they just pick up?" the two friends thought.
"I looked directly back at him, and I was like, ‘What the (expletive) did you do?'" Gottsche said.

Lang wouldn't tell them who he was or what was going on, Gottsche said, only that Trump had saved his life. (Trump pardoned Lang, who spent four years in prison after beating a U.S. Capitol police officer with a bat on Jan. 6, 2021.)
"... because the fear and urgency you felt trying to escape that crowd is what people here feel every day," she said.
The article continues and is a must read.
