Cop Problem Looms in Early Wisconsin Summer and Mid-term Primary Elections

The face of hate in Madison, Wisconsin wears military-
blue-and-black. Killers Justin Bailey and Gary Pihlaja
have bad attitudes and they found a home with
local police in Madison, Wisconsin before gunning
down 26-year-old Ashley DiPiazza in 2014.

Madison, Wisconsin — It's early Summer in Wisconsin this morning, beautiful outside. Each day, each breath is a celebration.

Yet, many will be killed and harassed the next few months by a vicious and mindless gang, the cops.

In Wisconsin's two largest cities, the cops have the political backing of the local liberal mayors, Tom Barrett in Milwaukee and Paul Soglin in Madison.

In Milwaukee the ugly, cop attack on Sterling Brown this year showed on video the true colors of police. Certainly, many who watched the video thought, 'at least they didn't kill him this time.' Small favors from the Evangelicals, Trumpists and assorted brutal human garbage in military-black-and-blue who have become the menace few openly oppose.

The Milwaukee cop attack on Mr. Brown was relentless — insulting, taunting, racist, hostile, aimed-to-provoke a reaction and inflict humiliation and anger, (it's a cop tactic) — until the cops finally decided to taser and beat the black man for apparently parking not very well over two handicapped spots in the middle of the night before the man picked something up at a local Walgreen's.

SOP in Milwaukee and the suburbs. SOP everywhere, daily. Residents are by-standers, and in Milwaukee Barrett, the mayor no less, is afraid to take on this armed gang of punks and thugs.

What kind of people treat other others in the manner caught on the Brown video? Scum-bags, in other words — cops. It's who this gang wants to be — violent, opposed to all outside the gang, and loyal to each other against the public interest.

Our beautiful Summer comes during a major election year.

Madison's Paul Soglin is running for the Democratic Party nomination for governor. The race is wide-open. Absentee voting begins June 28 for the partisan primary in some two weeks.

Soglin should be a natural for gov. Anybody visiting Madison knows why.

The world-class university, UW-Madison, is connected by State Street to the Capitol, ringed by bars, restaurants and boutique shops. The Capitol is connected by Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd to Lake Monona and the Monona Terrace and Convention Center, as envisioned and designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

Soglin has pursued a high-wage local economy, a progressive social agenda and the results to any fair-minded observer are impressive.

Soglin deserves credit for Madison, its libraries and its elections, all together that are nothing short of magnificent, continually drawing the ire of Gov. Scott Walker (R) who in policy and rhetoric demeans Madison to the point of actually shooing away $100s of millions in federal money, lest Madison becomes an even more fervent oasis offensive to the current fundamentalist Wisconsin governor.

There's another side of Madison though that's glossed over, and Soglin is the major collaborator of this daily exercise in indecency.

It may cost Soglin the nomination on Election Day, Aug. 14. It should.

It was July 2, 2016 and after the Madison police killed another unarmed man, Paul Soglin reportedly decided he needed to say something.

But not about the police, not challenging the killing, not vowing to use every lever of the Mayor's office to stop the killing, and certainly not eviscerating the Madison Police Dept.

No, Soglin publicly castigated the Madison community in 2016 warning the police will continue to kill people and it's the public's fault, the victims' fault, (WISC-TV, WKOW-TV, Isthmus, Mal Contends). Read links above and tell me Soglin was not indecent for his lack of empathy of killer-cop victims.

It was an incredibly cold-blooded statement, and Soglin's reptilian psychology locked in the biggest political knock on Soglin: He's out-of-touch, even pathologically incapable of identifying with victims of police violence and brutality.

In 2017, a record $7 million was awarded to the family of young Ashley DiPiazza after two Madison cops gunned her down in cold blood in 2014. Though Madison cops and Soglin did not, and do not see this young woman as a human being, it is worth affirming Ashley DiPiazza was a human being — a beautiful, young woman gunned down by people for whom life means little.

Said DiPiazza's grieving father in 2017: "She had just told me all her friends were married and had kids, and she felt a little left out. She’d ask, ‘Dad, what kind of mother do you think I’d make to my child?’ I told her she’d be great," (Schultz, Wisconsin State Journal).

Forget good-health professionals. No family member ever fully recovers from vicious killings of the young.

Not the family and friends of Paul Heenan, gunned down by Madison cops in 2012. City settled for $2.3 million in 2015.

Not the family and friends of Tony Robinson, gunned down by Madison cops in 2015. City settled for $3.35 million in 2017.

"City of Madison insurance costs have risen by more than 42 percent over the past three years after the city has agreed or been ordered to pay nearly $13 million in two settlements and a jury award in three fatal police shootings," reports the Wisconsin State Journal this morning.

The reasons explaining why police kill so many people, harass so many people, imprison so many people are many.

But one thing is certain. Cops would not inflict a vicious assault against society in Madison, if the police did not have the full backing of Mayor Paul Soglin.

I have seen what Madison and area police are capable of and police misconduct, deceit, character assassination and violence are the defining features of these municipal gangs, and as much as anybody Paul Soglin should be counted in the company of the guilty.
