Although Kenosha leaders had unanimously greenlighted a plan in 2017 to purchase body cameras for law enforcement officers, police were still not equipped with them.

Where did the money go? Oh. Right. Salary and benefit increases for government "workers".

Thank you for waiting for three days to release this information Wisconsin Department of Justice.

Just an observation, as the media and liberals are shocked, so shocked, about allegedly racist shootings and police brutality and all that, is that nobody ever talks about how these guys were criminal suspects in the first place.

Being a criminal suspect doesn’t justify being shot in most cases. If anyone wanted to have a calm discussion on that point, we could discuss that with the liberals.

However, to listen to these liberals, you would swear that police just shoot people without provocation.

And they are like pit bulls and never let it go. As in the Michael Brown case, for example, the liberal view has morphed into him being a murder victim and a martyr, even though the policeman in that case was exonerated after the investigation.

Nowadays, it seems like we don’t even want to wait for any investigations of the circumstances anymore. Instead, these liberals and radicals just want to cut to the chase and get a lynch mob going. Or in the absence of a lynch mob, getting a riot started is their substitute.

The cops are innocent and justified in the shooting.

As another freeper brilliantly pointed out, one day the police will shoot an upstanding, law abiding citizen- but it hasn’t happened yet.

Every one of these shootings has been of a criminal thug, resisting arrest.

How freakin’ stupid can the press be? He had that knife before he got in the car, in fact he likely was trying to hide the knife in the car and that was why he resisted.

So? He had a knife, in the car, so?

It was wasnt a imminent threat, like in his hand threatening the officer, that justified 7 shots to his back.I

Shot for opening his car door is not a good defense, keep trying.

According to the Wisconsin Department of Justice, police recovered a knife from the floorboard, but the agency did not say whether Blake, a 29-year-old black man, was holding the weapon when Sheskey shot him

Why is it so damn difficult to get accurate and timely facts, important facts out to the public BEFORE the media incites violence. This Morning on CBS Gayle King said it was no big deal that the kid was lunging for the knife in the car because it was UNDER the floor mat, so because it was not in his hand and was under the mat then the cop shouldn't have shot him. This is the crazy stuff the media comes up with and could be avoided if we were given pertinent accurate descriptive FACTS earlier.

Doesn’t matter. All the hate-America blm crowd needs is a black shot by cops, and they burn a few thousand more stores.

Just supposin’. Trump gave millions of Blacks jobs. That kept many off the streets and out of trouble. He would have created thousands more jobs when the dems artificially inflated the effects of a virus and met with anarchists to plan the riots. Result: blacks out of jobs and poor and miserable again, just like dems want them.

They will just say the police planted it there. Remember, facts are racist.

So, the cops are dealing with a lunatic who apparently has his own kids in the car, is at his wife’s where he’s not allowed to be, has already resisted arrest, and is now trying to either get in his car to get away or grab something to help him even the odds in the fight.

Say the cop drops the hold on his shirt and the guy takes off in the car with the kids along with him. Say he then runs over a cop and cripples him for life, takes out two pedestrians down the block, then crashes the car and two of his three kids die in the wreck.

Was the cop right in letting go of him and not doing all he could to stop him from taking control of the car given all that had gone before, even if the cop was unaware of his history before that, and even if he never saw the knife?

Anyone else thinking about the kids in the car? Maybe that’s exactly who the cop was thinking about. And maybe, just maybe, he saved the life of one or more of them. We’ll never know, of course, but I dare say that if it was anyone else’s kids in the back of that car, they’d now be running a gofundme campaign for that cop.
