‘Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers’: Minneapolis mayor speaks on shooting at Catholic school

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey spoke to his community in a news conference.

“Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school, they were in a church,” he said.

“These are kids that should be learning with their friends. They should be playing on the . They should be able to go to school or church in peace without the fear or risk of violence, and their parents should have the same kind of assurance. These are the sort of basic assurances that every family should have.”
