David Clarke, Milwaukee County Sheriff, has reuqested the mobilization of the National Guard following protest and violence in the City of Milwaukee late Saturday, August 13th and into early Sunday.

This all erupted after an officer-involved shooting on Saturday afternoon.

He said:

“We cannot allow for a repeat of what happened (Saturday) night. I am going to utilize all available resources to accomplish that.

”

Fox 6 Now Reported:

Protesters burned several stores, including the BP gas station at Sherman and Burleigh, Jet Beauty at 35th and Fond du Lac, BMO Harris Bank at 36th and Fond du Lac, O’Reilly Auto Parts at Fond du Lac and Burleigh and MJM Liquor at Fond du Lac and North — and threw rocks at police on the city’s north side, leaving one officer injured and three protesters arrested. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said protesters had been using social media to draw more demonstrators.

David Clarke has been getting a bad press within the black community and many see him as a Republican puppet for his demonization of the Black Lives Matter movement and strong support of Blue Lives Matter, plus his strong pro-gun beliefs and general conservative views.
