Daily Show in Madison for "Are all cops Racist?"

Loved this bit on the Daily Show, especially the idea of a "black Twitter."
In a segment "Are All Cops Racist," Madison Police Chief Mike Koval is interviewed on Comedy Central. The portion with Koval begins at about the 4:40 mark.

Anonymous joins protesters seeking justice for deadly shooting of Tony Robinson.

I haven't seen much about the Anonymous cyber attack on Madison's computer system over the tragic death of Tony Robinson. While the story is still unfolding, Anonymous got involved with the message below that includes police scanner audio:


The City of Madison is working with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security Tuesday to determine who may have launched a cyber attack on their IT systems late Monday and to protect against further attacks, according to Chief Information Officer Paul Kronberger.

Madison Police Spokesperson Joel DeSpain tells 27 News the group "Anonymous" is claiming they are responsible for the cyber attack.

Ferguson gut check: Liberal vs Conservative Law enforcement in Wisconsin.

I was struck how different our law enforcement leaders differed in their approach to something like the protests in Ferguson, Missouri.

Talking about the militarized confrontation in Ferguson, Rachel  Maddow brought up the violent 60's war protests in Madison, and how Police Chief David Couper came in and turned all that around. A really nice piece:



Now check out this less than grateful reelection interview with Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke, who bashed "this soft on crime, revolving door, social engineering experiment being conducted by the DA, and the lenient Milwaukee County Judiciary...I'm going to continue to push back on it. It's hurting this community...I believe the (election) results were a repudiation of their soft on crime social engineering experiments...I promote a clash of ideas."



Fianlly, check out Madison's new Police Chief Mike Koval's approach, and tell me who you would put your confidence in. WISC:
