(AP) Joe Biden says the police officer in Kenosha, Wisconsin, who shot Jacob Blake in the back on Aug. 23, leaving the 29—year-old Black man paralyzed, “needs to be charged.”
The comment by the Democratic presidential nominee came after he was asked about remarks by his running mate, California Sen. Kamala Harris, that the officer should face charges.
Biden also says officers should be charged in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor in Kentucky.
Biden plans a visit Thursday to Kenosha, where there have been multiple nights of unrest following Blake’s shooting. Biden says there have been “overwhelming requests” that he come to the city.

Biden follows Trump’s lead like a Hungry vulture circles its prey. Like the political Vulture he is, who has no original ideas, no ability to solve social problems or even hunt his own meat, Biden has to wait for Trump to show him where to go hunt, and how to harvest the votes. After Trump first goes into the predator filled forests of Kenosha on the hunt for lawbreakers, Joe just later flies in after the wolves are run off, and steals the red meat of the Trump arguments claiming it to be his own, claiming the officer should be charged, not the lawbreaker on drugs who defied them. If this was the story of Little Red Riding hood, Biden would shoot the hunter and release the big bad wolf to go back and eat granny and our Little Red States,,,, just like Cuomo did in our nursing homes with the Big Bad Virus.
IMO the only reason he went, was to ferment HATE towards trump..
Frankly, there’s MORE evidence that Vice President Biden committed crimes (Burisma) than did this officer!
This is just Biden “Acting Stupidly” (and it surprises NO ONE)!
YET any attempts to investigate HIM< have been sidelined by the house of reps…..
Biden at least gets his exercise by jumping to conclusions before hearing all of the facts, just like his boss did on numerous occasions. I wonder if he will get a reception equal with that of the President, of course the mayor and governor who didn’t want the President to come will probably be there with effusive praises of his coming.
He’s only parroting what his handlers have told him to say. I DOUBT this evil soulless cretin, could have any original thoughts, anymore.
Is anyone concerned that the potential next Commander-in-Chief believes in guilty until proven innocent? Or maybe it is guilty no matter what if it doesn’t fit the liberal mindset.
Somewhere along the line the fact that Mr. Blake had a warrant out for his arrest, that there was a call made by someone else for a domestic situation that he was playing a part in, and a number of commands by police officers that were totally ignored has been lost. As I tell my kids, actions have consequences and sometimes you don’t get a second chance.
And don’t forget that he fought with the officers (and got tased twice), and apparently was reaching for a knife in his car.
Even if proven innocent, liberals often see you still as being guilty. LOOK at Kavenaugh!
