Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke blasted President Obama and other prominent gun-grabbing politicians saying that “to these individuals, black lives do not matter.”
He also explained why gun violence is consistently higher in cities considered to be liberal strongholds with the strictest level of gun control laws in the nation.
“There are too many felons and career criminals that are armed,” Clarke explained. “The law-abiding people are not.”
Clarke’s comments come on the heels of law enforcement reports that the city of Chicago had seen 33 shootings that killed 8 people and wounded another 40.

Clarke noted that President Obama remains silent on the “staggering” violence in his home city.
“In this instance, all we get from Rahm Emanuel, the mayor, who is an Obama protege, is a shoulder shrug. We get a head in the sand from the superintendent of the Chicago police department – he’s been nothing more than a mouthpiece for Michael Bloomberg’s assault on the Second Amendment – and from the President of the United States, the same. … I think this is Exhibit A in the case that, to these individuals, black lives do not matter,” said Clarke.
He said that the violence will only get worse unless the “assault on the American police officer” comes to an end and Democratic leaders in these cities “properly resource” their police forces.
“The good law-abiding people of Chicago are suffering. There are too many felons and career criminals that are armed. The law-abiding people are not.”
Is Clarke right that violence in these cities is on the rise because law-abiding citizens are subject to strict gun laws, while criminals are not?
