Mini - Riots in Trenton, NJ Sunday -> Monday

So Trenton,  our state Capitol and nearest "City with a Ghetto" to the Farm,  had some peaceful protest Sunday,  with a minor Riot and sprinkle of Looting in the wee hours.  Just one cop car was set ablaze and various stores were broken into.  Pretty mellow compared to NYC and PHL.  I can be in Trenton (with no traffic) in about 20-25 minutes at the outskirts,  but State Street is a little bit further.

That's where the Demonstration happened and where all the State Worker buildings are located.

^^ THat's the aerial view of Trenton from across the Delaware in Morrisville PA.  The oldest bridge on the left is the famous "Trenton Makes The World Takes" bridge.

Below from the Trentonian,  our local tabloid with 'Police Blotter'  4-5 days per week.  Usually when I read that at Vincent's Pizzeria,  it's a shooting or two,  and some youngsters selling crack and dope.
