From listening to the comments being made in the video footage at the above link, it sounds like the community members simply don't want to accept that the incident went down as police said it did. They are even questioning the shooting victim's "long rap sheet" that was quickly released to the news media. Now either the young man had a rap sheet or he didn't. LE isn't going to make up a rap sheet.

Another group was commenting that the black Milwaukee PD officers "are the worst because they have to prove to the white boys that they deserve to have their job".

It will surely benefit everyone for LE to release whatever videotape they have as soon as they possibly can.

I wish releasing the video would calm things, however, I don't think it would matter what was on that video.

You cannot reason with people that have no ability or experience with abstract or critical thinking, IMO

I looked at the forecast earlier today for Milwaukee and noticed a chance of rain. I was hoping a rainshower would dampen the rioting (literally!) and start to calm things down.

Is it quieter tonight?

3 kids walked by me carrying a few dozen eggs. They said they were going "around." @tmj4

I heard about this but did not follow. My thinking was he was armed - so did not think it would riot. Is there something about the inident wherein it is beleived the guy was not armed?

I have serious concerns about LE in this nation - but what is the reason this one ignited all this?

Was it because he was fleeing but did not do anything but run - shot in the back, or did the deceased threaten the officer with his gun

quick fill in anyone??
