“In Minneapolis, just look at what we’ve been seeing. It’s so fantastic!” Harris exclaimed. “People coming out with their whistles, their smart phones and videotaping, and, you know, with perfect strangers and aiding perfect strangers! It’s been so beautiful to see!”

Harris then rambled about the importance of “power in numbers.”
