According to one Chicago cop who blogs, the Milwaukee cops told him that there was a peaceful protest until some people from Chicago showed up and incited the whole thing.

Hmmmmm....now I wonder why anyone from Chicago would want to go start trouble like this in Milwaukee.

Drug dealers from Chicago have been setting up in Milwaukee since the 1980s. It would not surprise me if stuff like that happened.

I think they were sent up there to incite this kind of thing. I don't think they arrived and suddenly got it in their heads to incite it in Milwaukee - they could have stayed home and done that here.

Not sure why you're so defensive, but whatever. Chalk it up to typical of that area
Lol, yeah, ok. Sounds like you don't fit in wherever you are.

In the aftermath of the recession, African Americans have been hit the hardest in terms of unemployment, which is still affecting them. Manufacture jobs are leaving the country and 15-20 years ago, one nice union job is enough to support a whole family. Now, middle class is shrinking.. People are working harder.. Think about it. It is not white people's fault, nor is it white cops' fault.

Poverty and crime have a very “intimate” relationship.
Poverty & crime have always gone hand in hand, this is not a new revelation.

The people who live here know about the dealers & gangs coming here from Chicago. Maybe you should listen to those who actually live here rather than just wrongfully speculating.

I will argue that opinion is not necessarily fact, for example, many can see war on drugs is a failed domestic policy, many say war on drugs is absolutely necessary. Where do you draw the line? Who really makes the rule?

Let's not make police officers and their family members the scapegoat, shall we?

shooting to wound doesn't make sense scientifically, or tactically. It is a simple fact.
I've not argued any of that. Stick to the argument. Your attempt to throw in family members is pretty lame.

People in Milwaukee are getting sick of THAT too.
I don't support anyone harming anyone for any reason outside of direct self defense.

The white Indianapolis woman killed by some poor misguided misjudged young men-nary a peep-yet she was actually doing some good

I'll never get when true criminals meet their fate-the ghetto trash worships them as if they walked on water

Speaks volumes about them when you see who they "idolize" pretty sad really,
We had people defend the officer that shot a man lying on his back with his hands in the air while trying to assist a mentally incompetent individual.

Those we entrust with upholding the law must be held to a higher standard than the ones they are policing over. Because some criminal lies, does not make it O.K. for the police to lie. Because some criminal shoots an innocent person does not make it any more excusable when a police officer does it.

Nothing lame about it. I think you are trying to argue for the sake of arguing. I think your taking everything so personally is rather lame. Pretty funny that you are the one lecturing others to stick to the argument.

but it is always convenient for politicians to create race war in order to hide the real problems.

Never a solution.
