I'm interested in what charges end up being maintained on that kid.  I'm surprised the findings of the police shooting have not been finalized.

The WDOJ finished its review and just appointed a former police chief to review its findings. Noble Wray was the police chief in Madison.

As for the kid, I was wrong about the possession charge possibly sticking. As it turns out, a person 12 years or older can carry a long gun (not a pistol) in Wisconsin. An AR is a long gun. No violation there.

Got a letter in the mail from the county collector's office here. It was about the proposed new property tax on my house.

IT IS GOING DOWN.

I about fell over, but I realized quickly that I'm not in Illinois anymore. I looked recently and the taxes on my old house in Palatine went up 30% this year.

I wonder if Kyle Rittenhouse was Kyle Jackson, the cops would have sped past him towards the call and bypassing the black kid with the rifle strolling down the street.

I saw something suggesting that was just in a hunting context, though the law might be poorly written to allow a bit of a loophole. So that would be interesting, though not necessarily intentional.

Idk. If Kyle Jackson would have put his hands up and peacefully walked toward the officers like Rittenhouse did then, yeah, maybe.  It’s amazing  when you obey commands and don’t show yourself to be a threat how much the outcome changes.

I wonder if George Floyd had been white if a tenth of the fuss over his death would have been made. We’ll never know I guess.

Don't be blind.  
Before that....before they knew who did what.  Watch the video.  He assumed police "had him" and would take him down, but to his surprise, they just went on by.  With bystanders telling them what he did.  

They drive past him because he couldn't possibly be the shooter!  Because.............???

I wonder if George Floyd had been white if 4 officers would have knelt on him.  His death, his murder, enjoy your status.

Probably. White people are killed by the cops too. More than blacks, but it’s never a story. Doesn’t advance any political agendas.
