what happened in Milwaukee?
‘As I have been saying for quite a while, the terrorists are in a hurry. ‘
and Obama is their leader....
Nothing yet - threats out there as a follow-on in Milwaukee to Dallas and Baton Rouge. I will be surprised if something doesn’t happen there.
Policeman shot/wounded.

As you know, the POINT of an insurgency is to cause heavy handed govt response to the insurgent, and crack down on the law abiding. The insurgents GOAL is to drive the wedge between the govt and the citizenry, and govt falls for it every time.
The point I must disagree with is the conflating of two distinct problems.
The first is terrorism. This is almost uniquely a problem initiated and perpetuated by Islam.
The second is violence against law enforcement.
While the shooting in Baton Rouge was perpetrated by someone who was a member of the Nation of Islam, to place on him the mantle of ‘terrorist’ diminished the second problem while inflating the first. Each has a different root and while they may cross the streams from time-to-time, they are separate and distinct and must be treated differently lest we fall into the trap of a police state and its mean-spirited cousin: tyranny.
