Milwaukee Sheriff Clarke Furious At TX Deputy’s Murder; Says DOJ Started The ‘War On Police?’

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Jr. laid it out for Judge Jeanine Pirro in an interview Saturday, and he wasn’t holding back.
Saying he was “too pissed off to be diplomatic” about Friday’s ambush and murder of a uniformed deputy sheriff in Houston, Clarke blamed the White House for the “war on police.”

On Saturday, authorities announced the arrest of Shannon J. Miles, 30, a man with a criminal record, in the shooting death of Harris County Deputy Darren Goforth. Charged with capital murder, Miles could face the death penalty. “I said last December that war had been declared against the American police officer, led by some high-profile people,” Clarke told Fox News host Jeanine Pirro on “Justice With Judge Jeanine” Saturday.

“One of them coming out of the White House, another one coming out of the United States Department of Justice. And it’s open season right now, there’s no doubt about it.” Clarke referred to members of the Black Lives Matter movement who chant “No justice, no peace” as “black slime that needs to be eradicated from the American society.”

Pirro observed that “without leadership … people seem to be emboldened by this kind of thing.” “Right,” Clarke said. “And that’s why I said the president of the United States started this war on police.”

missed the irony of his comment(s):

.” Clarke referred to members of the Black Lives Matter movement who chant “No justice, no peace” as “black slime that needs to be eradicated from the American society.”


Isn't/wasn't it the, pre-existing, latter, that prompted BLM to chant the former?

Here's how BizPac review describes itself:

Conservative News You Can Trust

Based in Palm Beach County, BizPac Review is a privately held, for-profit news and opinion website covering news that matters to conservatives throughout Florida and the United States.

Our articles and posts are fact-checked and edited, and BizPac Review content is accepted by and listed with Google News.

BizPac Review is a major new conservative media outlet that provides an alternative to legacy media in Palm Beach County, Florida and the nation.



I mean, I guess you were tempted to run this nonsense in LBN, but the many recent failures of your other conservative "news" postings suggested it would be better run in GD?

Cops are never wrong, we need to learn that and move on. The guy that killed the cop was probably tired of hearing all the CYA stories about cop brutality around the nation. If only cops would finally do something about their 'bad apples' there would be no BLM because there would be no need.

I just watched Straight Out of Compton and I swear nothing has changed at all.
