This is a telling picture of just how small the group of protesters causing disruptions in Milwaukee are.

What stinks is that the Hamilton family has a very legitimate beef with the DA for taking months to announce whether or not he will bring charges against the officer who shot Dontre Hamilton. The DA’s delay is unacceptable. But the fact that the protests being held in their name appear to be being hijacked and disrupting the lives of people who have nothing to do with the case is overshadowing their cause.

Also, the DA’s delay is only adding to the problem. People are going to protest not matter what the charging decision is. The longer the DA delays; the longer this is going to go on. Just announce the decision already, deal with the aftermath, and let’s move on.
