But Milwaukee Police Chief Edward A Flynn insists the footage makes it clear that the shooting was lawful.

He said that Smith was shot after he turned toward an officer and raised his gun.

Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett, speaking at a press conference on Monday, added that a still from the cop's body camera shows 'without question' Smith had a gun in his hand.

Wasn’t the cop black?

Not that it matters to the looters.

It doesn’t matter to the MSMLSD crowd - it’s the seriousness of the charge rather than the evidence against.

Now...the city needs to do the REAL right thing and go directly after the "Revolutionary Communist Party" of Chicago who caused all the rioting, injuries, damage and expenses to the city with civil lawsuits AND criminal charges.

They should make an example of them, prosecute and litigate them right out of existence.

an Uncle Tom, no doubt. :-)

Since the obozo, Holder and Lynch running the government, a justified shooting of an armed black thug by a cop does not matter. It is all about social justice for the black Americans. In the eyes of obozo, Holder and Lynch, black people can do no wrong, even murdering cops is okay with these three.

Well, that narrative worked until it became known the police officer was black.
All they want is to rage, loot, hate, and lash out. Nothing more.

There would have been riots video or no video.

There is video of the thug’s sister screeching for people to stop burning their shit down because they need their shit, they need their weaves (yes, she actually said this). Go burn down shit in the white suburbs, instead!

You would think it’s a skit on SNL or something from the onion, but it’s real! These people are caricatures of caricatures and they’re too stupid to realize it! MLK would be so proud- from ‘I have a dream’ to ‘We need our weaves!’

I know many cops don't like the idea.. but I'm adamant all cops should wear body cams..

Face it all sides will assume anyway what happen.. you need to have something that shows some of the truth no matter what its is

[BraveMan]

I’d wear that on a t-shirt . . .

[BraveMan]

Well, they did torch a salon . . .

[vpintheak]

Yep. Sad. Very very sad.
And this woman should be prosecuted for inciting a riot and terroristic threats.

In the pic of 2nd Place....

Note that in that photo, a round is chambered and his finger is on the trigger. That shiny circle you see is the tip of a full metal jacket. I’m guessing .45 though the depth in the photo could be deceiving.

cop is black. they cannot exploit that angle.
