Sylville Smith shot twice, autopsy shows, in shooting that sparked violent Milwaukee protests

[techbeck]

An autopsy conducted Monday showed Sylville Smith was shot in his chest and arm, authorities said, backing up the official account of Saturday's shooting of a black man by a Milwaukee police officer.

 

But after two nights of violent protests, Mayor Tom Barrett on Monday announced a 10 p.m. weeknight curfew for teenagers to help curb the demonstrations.

 

Chunks of concrete and rocks hurled at police -- and shards of glass from shattered squad car windows -- injured seven officers, upping the two-day tally to 11 wounded cops, Police Chief Edward Flynn said on Monday.

 

Additionally, an 18-year-old man was shot and seriously injured, and officers had to use an armored vehicle to retrieve the man and take him to a hospital. Flynn said the city's ShotSpotter system recorded 30 instances of gunfire on Sunday night, after 48 instances were recorded on Saturday.

 

While the looting and burning of businesses that characterized Saturday night's melee was absent on Sunday, Flynn said three squad cars were damaged, a police BearCat vehicle was struck by two bullets, an automobile and several dumpsters were set ablaze and a store had its windows smashed.

Reading also that the protes....well lets just call them what they are, thugs....were specifically targeting white people.  Never mind that it was a black cop who shot a black person and that this person was seen with a gun raised at the officer.  And they have it on camera.  And lets also ignore that 3/4 of the homicides in Milwaukee this year were black and not committed by police.

Shooting twice or three times is standard procedure, especially for departmens which issue .38 or 9mm weapons and standard energy loads. The deceased (moron) earned both of them.

 

As to the rioters, prosecute the lot - especially their leaders for inciting them to riot and anything else applicable. If that includes BLM and other local or national black "leaders" - too bad.
