The 25-year-old son of newly elected congresswoman Gwen Moore was arrested Friday by Milwaukee police and later released in connection with the election day slashing of tires on 20 vans and cars rented by the Republican Party, according to police records.

Sowande Ajumoke Omokunde, also known as Supreme Solar Allah, arrived at the Milwaukee police administration building Friday morning with his attorney, was arrested at 9 a.m. and held in the police holding facility for several hours before being released, according to records.
Omokunde is one of three suspects who had been arrested as of late Friday.
Opel E. Simmons III, 33, a veteran Democratic Party activist from Virginia, was arrested Tuesday and released Thursday without being charged. A 24-year-old man was arrested Friday afternoon in the same case, a police source said.
Investigators want to talk to Michael Pratt, son of former acting Mayor Marvin Pratt, who led Sen. John Kerry's Milwaukee campaign, but have not summoned him yet, police sources said. Michael Pratt could not be reached for comment.
David Feiss, the Milwaukee County assistant district attorney who is handling the case, said he had not received any reports yet and the investigation is continuing.
"There are a number of individuals, local and not local, who we are attempting to contact," Feiss said.
He said several of the suspects have hired attorneys. After talking to suspects, police will release them, he said. If there are charges, Feiss said, their attorneys will be contacted to arrange for them to come to court.
Omokunde, who lives with Moore, a Democrat elected to Congress on Tuesday, was not available for comment, according to a man who answered the phone at Moore's home.
Omokunde's attorney, Robin Shellow, said he was booked by police and released, but declined to comment further.
Shellow said she called police to arrange for Omokunde to come in.
"If the police are looking for one's client, you pick up the phone and say (to police), 'What would you like us to do, and how could we make your job easier?' . . . That's the way responsible families handle it."
On Tuesday morning, 27 tires on 20 cars and vans rented by the Republican Party to carry voters to the polls were slashed. The vehicles were parked in the 7100 block of W. Capitol Drive.
A security guard reported seeing a man running from the scene that morning, police said. Tuesday night, police arrested Simmons, who was in town drumming up support for the Kerry campaign.
Supreme Solar Allah
Wasn't he in OZ? Sounds like he may be going back.
If he's not of their race, he'll be labeled a racist. If he is, he'll be labeled an uncle Tom. This security guard won't win.
Next time, Republicans, get a REAL security guard. I mean, 27 tires slashed before he noticed anything? (Must be good issue of Playboy this month.)
Judging by the names it appears these folks have desires to help "young people" learn about allah.
"Sowande Ajumoke Omokunde, also known as Supreme Solar Allah,"
That's a joke, right?
Right??
He's the second cousin of Atomic Wedgie Allah.
Figures!
That link was priceless. Self Wise Allah? WTF???
I Um gagoo...Human
Thanks for posting the website about this bunch. The following is excerpted from the article at the website. These characters are apparently a bunch of hate-filled blacks (one of them is bi-racial) who are following "Allah's" love-filled teachings...worst part of this is that they've been recruiting kids who probably have very little parental guidance:
"Supreme Solar Allah, 23; Self Wise Allah, 24; Universal Knowledge Allah, 25; and Charles Dennis, 50.
"Charles Dennis, executive director, oversees the entire operation with warm eyes and a gentle smile. His presence is more powerful than a great oak standing alone in an open field. He is the root of The Cream City Mentors.
“Charles was a role model and mentor to us growing up,” Self Wise said. “His leadership helped us recognize how beneficial it was to have someone to look up to other than a parent.”
Seems to me this is a federal crime and should be handled by the Justice Department.

Too funny. Did you put up the comment that ended with "you've been freep'd"?
What is it with these people, can't they be satisfied with a one given name?? Or is it a religious thing? I really would like to know.
no, but I love that. Given this is the weekend, I'm sure there will be lots of comments before they get in on monday and figure out how to delete.
Does DFU do raps? If so, hopefully you can come up with something appropriate.
She ought to consider resigning from the corrupt party that she belongs to though. That would depend, of course, on whether she possesses any vestigal shreds of morality or conscience.
Since this was clearly a 'hate crime' I am sure the congresswoman would not object to the sentence being doubled?
