Milwaukee violence: Protests break out after officer fatally shoots man

If this dead suspect was carrying a stolen gun, as is being alleged, well in my opinion the officer did the right thing and the protesters are clearly wrong in this incident.
Hopefully the officer's cam will show the full details. In this case the officer's life is what concerns me most.
Black lives matter when they obey the law.
When they don't obey the law there is death row and also being shot down in the streets if need be.
Same goes for white gangsters who break the law I have no pity for them.
Fleeing from an officer with a stolen gun, well, you get what you get.
I am sure the gun was found at the scene so there is really no question the suspect was armed and witnesses will attest to that fact if they are credible.
If we can believe this preliminary news report, the officer was in the right.
I feel no more pity for this black guy with a stolen gun than I would feel for a white guy with a stolen gun fleeing from police.
And then the question becomes also, who stole the gun in the first place?
If the suspect stole it then there is even more reason to believe he was a danger.
I am sure more details will emerge and I hope whoever has vandalized these cars and property in Milwaukee will also be apprehended and charged for vandalism and endangering the public.
I have no love for violent protesters, they are criminals too, no matter if you are white or black the law should pursue and treat all criminals equally and fairly.
