Halfway into the year, Milwaukee is still on pace to double last year's numbers...

Through 7/1, 2015: 75 homicides
Through 7/1, 2014: 39 homicides

I believe in punishing murderers. I feel there is no excuse for murdering people.

That said, what is going on in Milwaukee? Why is the murder rate going back up??

Yeah the real tragedy about the Freddie Gray case and about Baltimore in general is that the ****in liberals aren't letting cops kill and assault black folk whenever they want anymore.

They don't need to since the black folks... Some black folks are doing that themselves and doing a good job... Look at the murder rates in B'more since the Freddy Gray incident... And it is not like Gray was an innocent working man going to work or a child like in Cleaveland...

Nasty week in Milwaukee, WI

There were 75 homicides as of the end of June. Now, July 7th, there are 84.
One of them was a 15 year old that murdered a 14 year old over a Facebook post.

At this rate, Milwaukee might end the year at around 130-140 murders.

It was basically 80 at the beginning of the 2nd half of the year... And summers are bad up there. I'm guessing 160 range.

The population there is only 600k... Very bad.
