Although Kenosha leaders had unanimously greenlighted a plan in 2017 to purchase body cameras for law enforcement officers, police were still not equipped with them. Where did the money go? Oh. Right. Salary and benefit increases for government "workers".

Just an observation, as the media and liberals are shocked, so shocked, about allegedly racist shootings and police brutality and all that, is that nobody ever talks about how these guys were criminal suspects in the first place.
Being a criminal suspect doesn’t justify being shot in most cases. If anyone wanted to have a calm discussion on that point, we could discuss that with the liberals.
However, to listen to these liberals, you would swear that police just shoot people without provocation.
And they are like pit bulls and never let it go. As in the Michael Brown case, for example, the liberal view has morphed into him being a murder victim and a martyr, even though the policeman in that case was exonerated after the investigation.
Nowadays, it seems like we don’t even want to wait for any investigations of the circumstances anymore. Instead, these liberals and radicals just want to cut to the chase and get a lynch mob going. Or in the absence of a lynch mob, getting a riot started is their substitute.

The cops are innocent and justified in the shooting.

Great question. I bought a body camera on Amazon for eighty bucks. I wear it in public now in case I get hassled by any Mask Karens. The police version with a ruggedized case and night vision was a couple hundred.

And if a cop pulled you over you would show your hands and tell him you are armed. This convict was armed and looked like he was going for another weapon after beating on his girlfriend which is why the cops were called.

Thank you for waiting for three days to release this information Wisconsin Department of Justice. They are nanny-state local bureaucrats with political leaders in a highly-charged political crisis. In a situation like this, all bureaucrats will circle the wagons and make sure not a word is said that has not been approved. No one wants to be fired, demoted, or have their pension revoked. They wouldnt piss if their pants were on fire unless an order came from the top.

That has been a ploy local governments have used for years. Make an impassioned plea to citizens to vote to tax themselves in order to make them safer and then, after they do, they use the tax money to increase salaries and benefits for government employees.
And then, in the next election cycle, guess what they propose? They propose that citizens tax themselves to ensure and improve public safety. So they do. And what is done with tax money? You got it. It goes to increases in government employees salaries and benefits.
And then, in the next election cycle......

As another freeper brilliantly pointed out, one day the police will shoot an upstanding, law abiding citizen- but it hasn’t happened yet.
Every one of these shootings has been of a criminal thug, resisting arrest.

There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. ― Ayn Rand
