Editor's Note: The embedded video shows a "protester" using extremely offensive language.
So-called "protesters" in Minneapolis have detained a city official, apparently involuntarily, demanding a signature on a promise that charges against rioters will be dropped in order to obtain the official's freedom.
Fox News reported Andrea Jenkins, the vice president of the Minneapolis city council, reported being "held hostage" during a homosexual celebration recently.
"Video shows a large group of protesters blocked her vehicle until she agreed to sign a list of their demands that included dropping criminal charges against rioters," the report said.
Fox reported, "The incident happened Sunday afternoon while Jenkins was attending the Taking Back Pride event in Loring Park, as video shows her sitting in the front passenger seat of a white vehicle being blocked by a group of extreme Black Lives Matter demonstrators, many with their cellphones out recording."
The incident was posted on Facebook, and in a video, Jenkins is heard saying, "It might be three days before I get out of here."
One "protester" hasda list of demands to which Jenkins must agree to "before she's free to leave," the report said.
The handwritten note includes outlandish requests such as "reopen all the cases of murderers."
"We are not asking no more, White lady. We are demanding," a female voice in the crowd shouts.
Jenkins ultimately signed the demands, so those engaged in the incident then demand she print her name and date it.
What the protesters planned for the signed document is unclear, but even entry-level law students know that a document signed under duress, or by coercion, is not valid.
Jenkins said on Facebook, "On Sunday afternoon, while attending a Pride event in Loring Park, something Ive done on the last weekend in June for the past 20 plus years, I was verbally attacked, berated and held hostage against my will by a large group of angry protesters."
Jenkins continued, "I cant tell people how to express their anger, their fears or their pain, but I do know that when your pain impacts others then that becomes problematic."
Jenkins opinion is that "no citizen has the right to detain and coerce anyone to do anything, that includes elected officials."

Bingo on the signed under duress.
So Miss Jenkins has attended a (Gay) Pride event for the last 20 years?
Are we to infer any motive other than simple support for the movement, or is she a carpet muncher?
Melissa Etheridge was a Lesbian. She wanted to have a baby so she was artificially inseminated. She didn't want any dick.
We worked her concert in Chicago. I was standing on front row of stage right. I had a woman partner to my right. Those bitches were pushy and would go past me and hit on her trying to get into the front row. I would tap them on the shoulder and say, "Go back to your seat." ;)

BTW, back in late 70s I was doing cosmetics deliveries for this woman in the old neighborhood. She had this purple fluid that would take the kinks out of black's hair. I would deliver it by the gallon to beauty shops on south side.
She told me, "Don't take any checks from those people." So I collected CASH. By the time I was done I had $500 to $800 on me. I ALWAYS carried a pistol and I stayed off of side streets.
But one time I was making right turn at 95th and Stony Island on SE side. There was a KABOOM off to my left. I floored it and got out of there. I looked at driver door later on and there were little ding marks on it like maybe they shot a .410 at me. Some of those people just did not like whites. ;)
