A sticker on a Minneapolis signpost references long-running allegations surrounding deputy “gangs” within the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD). Civil rights groups, journalists, and county oversight bodies have documented concerns for decades about informal deputy subgroups—some using matching tattoos or symbols—that critics say foster misconduct, retaliation, and internal loyalty structures.

Seeing a reference to those controversies on a street sign in Minneapolis reflects how national policing debates and accountability issues often circulate far beyond their place of origin, with artists and activists using stickers, posters, and small-scale street graphics to raise awareness or prompt online searches.

A dedicated red bus-only lane runs along Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis, part of the city’s recent investments in transit priority corridors. These painted lanes are designed to give buses consistent travel times through dense urban segments, especially during peak hours, and they align with regional plans to improve service reliability on key north–south routes. Late at night the corridor is quiet, with the reflective pavement markings and overhead lighting emphasizing the straight line of the transit path through the Midtown area.
