Milwaukee Shooting, Rioting: Why Are the Police Always Blamed?
The New American ^ | C. Mitchell Shaw

Posted on 08/15/2016 2:36:58 PM PDT by detective

Following a fatal police shooting of an armed black suspect Saturday afternoon, Milwaukee erupted into the requisite rioting and looting that has become the hallmark of lawlessness so common in the inner cities of America. As of this writing, at least six businesses including banks and gas stations have been burned, at least four police officers have been injured, and an unknown number of civilians — mostly white — have been attacked by mobs.

The violence and destruction only came under control when Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke called in the national guard. After speaking with Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and Wisconsin National Guard Major General Donald Dunbar, Clarke made the decision to put the Guard on standby, saying, “We cannot allow for a repeat of what happened last night. I am going to utilize all available resources to accomplish that.”

Because the left must destroy the civil authority before they try and replace it

The police are always blamed by racists.

The thinking is that blacks are inferior and unable to control their most base impulses. Therefore, it is not the fault of the simple beast but the police.

Racists.

Somehow the Public Parks in the City of Milwaukee are owned and run by the County of the same name. It would seem that the Sheriff has direct jurisdiction over some of Milwaukee City.

Also, unlike Baltimore, Md. where the City is its own County on the State Level, Milwaukee County includes the City of Milwaukee as is the case for most Cities in the US.

Because American cities are run by Democrats and they don’t know what they are doing. They have to blame someone.

Actually this wasn’t about blame, it was an open opportunity to be criminals and loot.

The question is why don’t they blame the politicians and vote them out?

Milwaukee has a liberal do-nothing Mayor. He got on TV and told the mothers to keep their children at home.

Mayor does not address the lack of jobs, 35% unemployment, lack of fathers, lack of decent schools, lack of leadership, etc.

The shootee was able to acquire his weapon without a background check or leaving a #4473 behind by using the Burglary Loophole....

The Mayor is mostly interested in building limited coverage Streetcar lines downtown.

Consider this. BLM and the other SJW want every police department either gone or under the thumb of an oppressive Fed DOJ, (most of which I might add, never had their ass in the grass one day).

So, whenever there is a police shooting, they already have resources in place, gin up the locals about “white officer, shot in the back, hands were up, etc” and then at the end the day, that agency is under investigation by the DOJ, predictably found to have violated rights, and under a consent decree, thereby federalizing them.

I would also say to the Alderman Kalifa Rainey, who undoubtedly will use this as a future platform for mayor, like Antonio French is doing here in St. Louis, that if he is under the oppression of the police, the answer is to the tell the police not to come to his constituents neighborhoods. Handle it yourself Alderman, form your NBPP protection squads and see how long that goes.

As Obama says, “[they] acted stupidly.”

Obama has, for years, attacked the police.

Saw the police Chief on TV blame a Communist Group from Chicago for causing these riots.

Beyond the violence, the goal is elimination of private property.

That logic was used on Fox by a guy basically saying the lefties excusing this behavior are showing their racism. This is now to be expected of urban blacks...

It was sad to see a few of them trying to clean up the morning after; too bad they can’t live somewhere else.

No. Feral urban negroes started rioting.

Why are the police blamed? Because local police are the enemy of national socialists and their feral urban negroes.

Enforcing the law is racist. You must allow your black brothers to steal, rape, kill, and burn.

The proper question should be: “Why do thugs and their sympathizers in the media and politics always blame the police?”

Halfway home.

The ACTUAL proper question is, "Why do whites, especially white women who vote, never blame the thugs?"
