RE: Sylville Smith shooting and the activation of the Milwaukee National Guard

in #anarchism8 years ago

I wrote about this an hour ago, the police were able to handle the situation, so they did not call the national guard! The governor did earlier from the night before just incase things really got out of hand and the police couldnt deal with it. Hers a link. Great post by the way!

@karenmckersie Fair point. I mixed up activated and called in at the end. After one night though was it necessary to even announce that it was going to happen? To me it speaks volumes of the government. A protest breaks out after another killing, justified or not, and instead of attempting to deescalate anything it is announced that they would be bringing in the National Guard. I see all of this spinning out of control and the government will use this to hide the fact that the Pentagon lost $6.5 trillion. Even without hiding it most for some reason do not care. Taxation is theft.
