Prominent Black Trump Supporter Murdered in Milwaukee
1130 WISN ^ | 7/24/2020 | Dan O'Donnell

Posted on 07/24/2020 3:22:01 PM PDT by grayboots

A black Trump supporter who was well known in his community for standing on street corners with "Vote Trump" signs as well as signs plastered with Bible verses was killed in broad daylight in Milwaukee's Riverwest neighborhood Thursday afternoon.

Bernell Tremmell, 60, was shot in front of his business, Expression Publications, at 911 E. Wright. The building is covered in handmade signs, the most prominent of which read "Vote Donald Trump 2020," and "Re-Elect Trump 2020." Law enforcement sources tell "The Dan O'Donnell Show" that it is impossible to know the motive for the shooting since the suspect is not yet in custody, but detectives are investigating the possibility that Tremmell was killed over his political beliefs.

Thank you, Inspector Fenwick, and now back to on scene coverage with an interview with investigating officer Dudley Doright.

Anybody who thinks we are going to have peaceful, free and fair elections in November has not been paying attention.
George Soros needs to be arrested now and charged with sedition, incitement to riot and even murder by proxy.

Don't forget his two sons.

Until proven otherwise, yeah, this is a politically motivated terror attack.

Prayers for this courageous American.

What side do you think the South (minus Yankee democrat invaders) are on now?

The GOP. So what?

Do you believe slavery was wrong?

Yes?

Then you would have been beaten or lynched in the confederacy.

Why do you care about the confederacy? As a Republican, your legacy is in abolishing slavery. The only thing you have in common with the confederacy is that you were born into the land they once dirtied. That no more ties you to them than it ties young Germans and Japanese to the evils of their past regimes.

But go ahead and pretend the confederacy wasn't what their own documents say it was. If you want to lose the nation to the democrats based on that delusion, then be my guest.

Actually, I am born/raised in north but with ancestral roots in border states/south. Had distant kin on both sides.

Slavery was not the issue. Absent slavery would you still oppose the South seceding? How about the colonists seceding from Great Britain? How about Ukraine from Soviet Union?

"“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”

Based on your comments I would say your sympathies were with the confederacy. Apologies if I'm wrong.

Slavery was not the issue.

According to the confederacy's own statements giving the reason for seceding, it was.

Absent slavery would you still oppose the South seceding?

As long as we are the United States, yes. Read into that what you will.

How about the colonists seceding from Great Britain?

No, I would not have opposed seceding to escape how the king was exploiting his own citizens. That is not the same thing as seceding to preserve slavery.

How about Ukraine from Soviet Union?

Do you equate the breakup of the Soviet Empire with seceding to preserve slavery? If anything, it was the exact opposite.

Tariffs, not slavery, precipitated the American Civil War

That op-ed did more to support my claim than refute it.

Here's what the states themselves said.

The Declaration of Causes of Seceding States

Granted they listed other reasons, but slavery appears in all of them. That is the "state right" they were seceding for.

Read them, and tell me you agree with them.

He wasn’t going to vote for Biden, so he wasn’t Black.


So true. Unfortunately your sarcasm tag’s not required because it’s actually true. Yes, that’s the world we live in today.
