ANOTHER CITY EXPLODES: Violent Riots In Kenosha Wisconsin After Cops Shoot Black Man [VIDEOS]


A police officer-involved shooting on Sunday of a Black man who was shot in the back set off violent protests in the lakefront city of Kenosha,Wis., that have lasted into the early hours Monday.

Many details of the shooting were not immediately clear, but the following unrest prompted the city to issue a curfew until 7 a.m. on Monday and police asked businesses to consider staying closed “due to numerous arm robberies and shots fired calls.”

Gov. Tony Evers, a Democrat, issued a statement late Sunday and said Jacob Blake was shot in broad daylight.

The shooting happened at around 5 p.m. Sunday and was captured on cellphone video that was posted online. In that clip, which was taken from across the street, the Black man, who was later referred to by the governor as Jacob Blake, walks from the sidewalk around the front of his SUV to his driver-side door as officers follow him with their guns pointed and shout at him. As Blake opens the door and leans into the SUV, an officer grabs his shirt from behind and opens fire while Blake has his back turned.

Seven shots can be heard, though it isn’t clear how many struck Blake or how many of the three officers who were at the scene fired shots. During the shooting, a Black woman can be seen screaming in the street and jumping up and down.

Blake was taken to a Milwaukee hospital and was in serious condition, the police department said in a news release in which it didn’t refer to him by name. The three officers were placed on administrative leave, as is standard practice in any officer-involved shooting.

The shooting sparked unrest in the city of roughly 100,000 people, which is along Lake Michigan and between Milwaukee and Chicago. By late Sunday, multiple vehicles were set ablaze and windows were smashed along city thoroughfares as crowds faced off with law enforcement. Officers in riot gear stood in lines and SWAT vehicles remained on the streets to move people away from city buildings despite the declaration of an overnight curfew. Tear gas was used to disperse groups of people, according to reporters at the scene.

  1. Why nobody is rioting for innocent white 5 year old Cannon Hinnant who was murdered in cold blood by black racist?
    I guess with Marxist Democrats, Fake News and their racist BLM mobs White Lives Do Not Matter.

  2. Who is funding these terrorist BLM gang. By the way when you shop in certain big stores they are adding to your bill a donation out of your pocket to BLM. Under sales tax they also add BLM with the amount they take from you to donate to these terrorists. President Trump should look into it.

  3. The civil war is inevitable.

    history will attribute it not to Trump or Biden neither to BLM or police brutality.
    It will be attributed to people who lost their capacity to think, groups that abandoned their listening ear, and a nation where empathy became shameful and not a virtue.
    Where if you say your political identity we somehow know right away what your opinion is on all types of subjects.
    If you hear something you must ask “who said it?’ before saying if it is right or wrong.
    Where if you express any understanding towards the “other side” you are extreme and terrible.

    This comes not out of strong opinions rather out of weak minds and lost spirits.
    on the one hand, there are the ideological, educated visionaries out of touch with simple reality, and on the other hand, there are simple people yet uneducated with no vision.

    There is no way of saving this country or preventing the war. whoever wins in November will trigger a war, and if the results are delayed, unclear or up to question – even more so.

    What we can do is try to speak to the “other” connect to the understanding of our most fiery opponent so we will be able to say that we had no part in the war and if the “other side” wins you may have a basement where to hide.

    They will be coming for you.

  4. So can someone explain why this brazen idiot didn’t obey the officers BEFORE he was shot? The video is clear, this guy ignored police, reached into his car, and got shot probably because they feared he was reaching for a weapon. The only thing “racist” here is that perhaps more blacks than whites in similar situations will brazenly ignore the orders of an officer with his gun drawn

  5. It is astonishing that the Democrats justify the looting, destruction, and violent crime. We can debate whether the shooting was justified or not. That requires an investigation, and results of that won’t be around for a long time. But there is simply no moral excuse for the destruction to anyone, even if there is basis for the rage. I would have instructed my police officers to shoot any looters on sight with lethal force. Nothing else can stop these evil mobs from wrecking the lives of innocent people.

  6. MoisheInGolus, I assume you learned about the murder of Cannon Hinnant from what you call Fake News, which covered it thoroughly. But I am confused when you call for riots in response. Are you suggesting that Cannon Hinnant was the victim of misuse of state force, so that protests and riots would be a meaningful reaction? If so, then I think you might be getting misinformation and should stick to what you call the Fake News, which hasn’t peddled that sort of idea. There has, in any case, been a huge swell of passionate vocal demand for legislation to address the sort of crime that Hinnant was the victim of: gun violence at the hand of civilians. It is a good cause, and I encourage you to get involved.

  7. There’s nothing to investigate. He ignored instructions and reached into the car; the shooting was justified. The police were not required to wait until they could see whether what he reached for was a weapon.

  8. When a black or white man is guilty of a crime and resists arrest he is inviting a shooting and its well deserved. And if he dies he commited suicide. Its his choice…
    And no, anyone outraged out there does not get license to loot, burn, or ruin property.

    > “Are you suggesting that Cannon Hinnant was the victim of misuse of state force”

    And you deliberately ignore the state’s role in that shooting? Unlike these local-cops – individuals – who no-one every heard of and by constitutional law are limited to being “local”, the federal Democrats (Federal level of government) had “constructively” deputized their followers to go out and “punish your enemies” (Obama’s words in an interview) and those Federal Democrat Congress-people who open give speeches to their “deputized” followers to go out and hassle Republicans (implicitly whites) wherever and whenever they are found. All this before the shootings (and before the virus) that ignited the current riots.

    All that aside from the implicit deputization of these rioters by the backing they receive from the Democrat political establishment.

  10. PaperBridge, do not assume anything, your corporate Fake News Media covered up execution of 5 year old white boy by a racist black thug who probably believed that only Black Lives Matter . My point was to pint your Democrat Marxist hypocrisy . If you believe that riots and pogroms by racist BLM mods was a reaction to “misuse of state force” then i have a NonPaperBridge in Brooklyn to sell you

  11. PaperBridge, you are the most dishonest person I’ve come across in a long time. The Fake News did everything they could to downplay that murder, never once even mentioning the races of the murderer and the victim, whereas you know perfectly well that had the murderer been white and the victim black it would be in the headlines for at least a month, and there WOULD be riots and demonstrations with your open encouragement and that of every Democrat politician in the country. It would have been covered like the dragging of James Byrd. Instead it was swept under the rug like the torture and murder of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian. Move along, nothing to see here, just another sad crime, nothing special. Because it doesn’t fit the DAMNED LIE that white people are violent and black people are victims.

    State force? There has been no misuse of state force for anyone to complain about. But even on your own premises, where was the state force in Trayvon Martin’s death? Nowhere. Martin was an common thug who was casing a house for possible burglary, someone got suspicious and started following him, so he attacked that person and tried to murder him, and his victim managed to shoot him and save himself. There wasn’t even the racial narrative that you liars love so much — the victim was not white! So you made one up. Had the victim been called Jorge Mesa nobody would have heard of the case, but since he had a name that Al Sharpton imagined to be Jewish it became a major case, and you leftists all reported that he was white, and his life has been ruined to this day. He can’t get a job, he can’t live a normal life, because you leftists keep harassing him.

    And no, “the sort of crime that Hinnant was the victim of” is NOT “gun violence at the hand of civilians”, it’s BLACK violence. One sixteenth of the population — young black men — is responsible for more than half of the violent crime. Any time a crime like this happens, if you bet that the perpetrator is black you will win more than you lose. And the Fake News desperately tries to cover that up by never reporting the perpetrator’s race if it’s black but always reporting it if it’s white, especially if the victim is black. THAT is the underlying fact pattern here and everyone knows it but you throw up all kinds of red herrings to divert attention from it.
