BREAKING: VIOLENT STANDOFF Between Milwaukee Police And Rioters After Officer-Involved Shooting
!00% Fed Up ^ | 8/13/16 | 100% Fed Up

A chaotic scene unfolded tonight after a police officer shot and killed an armed suspect in the north side of the city of Milwaukee. Police were in riot gear and as they left in their patrol cars, rioters smashed their windows and attacked the cars. A journalist was attacked too.

A standoff between police and an angry crowd turned violent Saturday night in the hours after a Milwaukee police officer shot and killed an armed suspect during a foot chase on the city’s north side.

More than 100 people gathered near the scene at N. 44th St. and W. Auer Ave. and at times pushed against a line of 20 to 30 officers, some of whom were in riot gear.

At one point, the officers got in their cars to leave and some in the crowd started smashing the windows and side of a squad car that appeared to be demolished. Another vehicle was set on fire. As officers returned to the scene, this time many more in riot gear, three or four gunshots could be heard about 8:45 p.m.

Soon thereafter, the crowd turned on and attacked reporters and a photographer from the Journal Sentinel. One reporter was shoved to the ground and punched.

This is a Milwaukee Police Department issue. Sheriff Clarke has nothing to do with this. The Chief of police is EDWARD A. FLYNN.

Moron speaking: “Milwaukee Wisconsin is the worst place to live for African Americans in the entire county.”

Too many liberals in Milawaukee?

The Chief of police is EDWARD A. FLYNN.

BTW, they said that he was out of town in Dallas at a funeral for a member of his family.

Re Sheriff David Clarke. Is he the Sheriff for Milwaukee City or the County (if there is such a thing)? Don’t remember but there should be a Chief of Police for Milwaukee city which is a different position.

As I recall, most COP for Milwaukee and esp. Minnesota have been leftist social engineers, PCers, give the criminals another chance types, and Democrats.

I’ll try to check my files and see who is who and get back to this article.

Just got home....
I miss all of the Democrat Voter Riots.

From Twitter:
“They’re now stopping traffic by standing in the road, then attacking drivers when they stop.

This is straight thuggery. “

- Twitter @EnemyWithinn

Other tweets saying WHITE PEOPLE being dragged from cars and beaten, right now.

An officer is being treated for a head injury suffered when a POS threw a brick through the windshield of his police car.

Shoot to kill order will stop all riots very quickly.
But it has never been used in United States in 100 years.

Sheriff Clarke is for the County.

City of Milwaukee has its own police dept.

In 1968 Chicago’s Mayor Richard Daley issued to city police an order to “shoot to kill” any arsonists or anyone with a ‘Molotov cocktail’ in his hand, and ordered them to “shoot to maim” any looters.
You’re right about such orders stopping riots quickly.
And that’s what these are: riots. The MSM would have us think they are “protesters” and that’s nonsense.

Chief of Police of Milwaukee is Ed Flynn, my own county’s chief before he moved up to Massachusetts.

I don’t remember him as being anything special but we do have a pretty good police department

He’s got a lot of credentials in his record.

Let’s see how effective he is in dealing with this riotous mob. Will he defend and support his men or do a Ferguson on them?

Actually, Sheriff Clarke has sent a Bearcat and crew, and other support personnel to aid the MPD. He has no leadership role, however.
