I doubt it is all of Milwaukee but add another city to the list that good decent people should avoid..
I watched the attached video and read the text.. so here we go again another outstanding citizen with a long history of violent crimes and his latest pointing a gun at innocent people in a bar, gets pulled over defies repeated orders by armed Police goes to his car, opens the door, reaches in for what, the gun? and the Police open fire.
Of course there will be riots, burning, looting and since the mob is now carrying guns there is bound to be shootings of innocent people including cops.
When will this madness end? Are people really as stupid as that guy that was shot down?
In the name of Black Lives Matter, rioters shut down the streets in Kenosha, Wisc., setting trucks on fire, patrolling the streets with semi-automatic rifles, and ransacking nearby businesses. The riot followed the release of a viral video showing Kenosha police repeatedly shooting a black man who resisted arrest and reached into his truck.
A statement from the governor of Wisconsin, Tony Evers:
Quote:
“Tonight, Jacob Blake was shot in the back multiple times, in broad daylight, in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Kathy and I join his family, friends, and neighbors in hoping earnestly that he will not succumb to his injuries. While we do not have all of the details yet, what we know for certain is that he is not the first Black man or person to have been shot or injured or mercilessly killed at the hands of individuals in law enforcement in our state or our country.
We stand with all those who have and continue to demand justice, equity, and accountability for Black lives in our country—lives like those of George Floyd, of Breonna Taylor, Tony Robinson, Dontre Hamilton, Ernest Lacy, and Sylville Smith. And we stand against excessive use of force and immediate escalation when engaging with Black Wisconsinites.
I have said all along that although we must offer our empathy, equally important is our action. In the coming days, we will demand just that of elected officials in our state who have failed to recognize the racism in our state and our country for far too long.” [WKOW]
It won't be the first time. Milwaukee got hit back in 2016. I think some people forgot about the riot that occurred after Sylville Smith got killed. And some people forgot about the riot in 1967.
