MKE Common Council Reaffirms Its Hypocrisy!
Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn abruptly announced his resignation on Monday effective February 16th after having completed ten years of service to Milwaukee and the Milwaukee Police Department.

Milwaukee Common Council Still Interfering with Fire And Police Commission
interesting that they don’t bother to actually name the police chief (or fire chief) in their missive.
full disclosure: Tony Zielinski is my alderman and the only thing I agree with him on from this video is the fact he isn’t going to run for his aldermanic seat while running for mayor. And he is also correct. He is one of the hardest working campaigners that I know.
But he’s certainly tilted […]
Our Airport

Side Note on Police High Speed Pursuit.
Now I don’t know what is the better police pursuit policy…only chasing violent criminals and suspected felons…or pursuing every suspect that police come in contact with…that is what the current discussion with the Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission and Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn will hopefully determine. But while researching MKE Common Council Joint […]
