Burned down & rebuilt Target store bears a mural celebrating arson
The Target store that was burned down last year during the Floyd riots now sports a mural celebrating the arson. It was looted and burned out at the time.
In late May 2020, rioters damaged over 1,500 Minneapolis buildings, burning 150 of them, including the Minneapolis Police Department’s Third Precinct.
One of the first under assault was the Target store.
Target rebuilt the store.
Michael Tracey noticed something rather odd about the new Target. It features a mural that appears to celebrate burning buildings.
One panel of the mural reading “we stand together,” shows four protesters standing in celebratory fashion before a blaze.

A Minnesota man who helped start a fire at a police station in Minneapolis during a protest following the death of George Floyd has been sentenced to four years in jail and fined $12 million.
Dylan Shakespeare Robinson, 23, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit arson last year after admitting to lighting a Molotov cocktail that another individual tossed into the Third Precinct building, which is where the officers involved in the death of Floyd worked. No officers or protesters were injured in the blaze, but the building suffered heavy damage.
“On the night of May 28, 2020, Mr. Robinson chose to depart from lawful protest and instead engaged in violence and destruction. The arson at the Minneapolis Police Department’s Third Precinct put lives at risk and contributed to widespread lawlessness in Minneapolis,” said Acting U.S. Attorney
