Milwaukee Police Chief Edward A. Flynn is an anti-gun liar and hypocrite as evidenced by the fact that in his press conference dog and pony show announcing that MPD will be deploying Smith and Wesson Patrol Rifles he repeated refers to seized weapons as "military grade armament" and "military assault rifles" when they are in FACT semi-automatic weapons that can be legally purchased at any gunshop. They are in FACT the EXACT TYPE of weapons that MPD will be deploying but when he talks about THOSE weapons he refers to them correctly as "semi-automatic weapons" and gives a detailed description of what a semi-automatic weapon is so the press is not confused.
Why the need for misdirection? Because he is an anti-gunner. What else should we expect from a Police Chief who blatantly lies and promotes disinformation concerning weapons and (in defiance of the AG of Wisconsin) has ordered his "troops" to "take to the ground" anybody who open carries a handgun in Milwaukee even though this is a LEGAL ACTIVITY.
I have NO issue with MPD having these weapons, but some honesty would go a long way in establishing credibility with this chief who currently has NONE. Note he mentions a situation where MPD was shot at with an SKS "assault rifle" . . . So it's only an "assault rifle" when it's not one of his "troops" who has it?
I couldn't be happier that I moved out of Milwaukee.
