A trail is in order, riots are not.

Sometimes typos cause confusion. Yes after he is charged with attempted murder
(Here's hoping Jacob Blake doesn't die) a T R I A L is in order, not riots.

I live in the hood.
Police are for filling out reports, we can handle local disputes ourselves, bad people get shot good people don’t.

Why would anyone choose to “live in the hood”?

Because if he had a gun when he was shot, that’s all we’d be hearing about.

The video shows him opening the door and reaching in head-first with both hands extended (vs. “trying to enter”). Perhaps the cop had reason to think he was reaching for a weapon.

If they keep going with this crap they are going to definitively push Wisconsin into the Trump camp like they may have already done in Minnesota.
