MILWAUKEE —Milwaukee's soaring homicide rate is posing a new challenge for city leaders combating the image of a city consumed by violence. Related
WISN 12 News reporter Kent Wainscott spoke with the mayor and police chief about what they insist is a mistaken view of Milwaukee.
It's a staggering statistic: more than 100 homicides in less than eight months. That's more than were recorded in all of 2014.
“We're having a very bad year,” Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn said.

Note to self: cancel night walking-tour of Milwaukee.
Milwaukee growing homicide rate challenging to officials. (How much of this is because of their policies of non-enforcement and releasing prisoners with little, or no, time served?)
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
And how many of the murders were committed by Negroes against other Negroes? Any patterns detected, or would it be profiling to try to discern any patterns to these killings???
Black lives don’t matter to other blacks.
Between blacks killing blacks at an alarming rate and abortion clinics making most of their money killing black babies ... afro-Americans will soon be an endangered species.
They’ve watched Hispanics pass them in numbers a decade sooner than projected, but still keep toeing the party line and electing those who would drive them to extinction...
They refuse the obvious.
Continue to bitch about law abiding gun owners as the problem.
I Wonder how much of that is also a little bleed over from MN here? They’re so weak on sentencing it’s not funny and they release the biggest of creeps!
When I was youth many years ago I lived on the north and later also the northwest side of Milwaukee. Those areas are now free fire zones. I have read stories in the Milwaukee Journal about killings that were mere yards from my boyhood home. ALL black on black. Chief Flynn is a progressive leftie from Boston. The mayor and city council is even more progressive.
Remember the Sheriff Clarke the direct opposite to Flynn is the sheriff of Milwaukee COUNTY. He’s the best!!
Accompanying the increase in homicides are the heroin deaths. In Milwaukee County death by overdose has jumped by 72%. In 2014, 119 people died from heroin-related overdoses, and for the second year in a row in Milwaukee County, heroin-related deaths outpaced motor vehicle deaths, of which 74 occurred.
You get rid of the drugs, and you get rid of the collateral damage.
Neither do white lives.
“We’re having a very bad year,” Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn said.
With a little more incompetence they should be able to have a “good” year of 200 - 250 deaths.
Between the abortions, homicides, and drug deaths within the black communities, maybe they should have a “Black Holocaust Museum” featuring the holocaust being carried out on black by blacks.
Pretty safe actually. The story fails to detail that nearly all if not all of the murders are in the inner city. Lots of gang activity and drug murders. I can’t say I know of any black on white crime,...I live in the suburbs and just stay away from the inner city
“We’re having a very bad year,” Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn said. (YA THINK?)
The big cities are becoming war zones.
Just another city run by Liberals. Add Milwaukee to the list (Detroit, Chicago, LA, etc.).
