Following Cory Booker’s “angry speech,” Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke, told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly that speakers at the Democratic National Convention were “embracing criminality” by supporting Black Lives Matter and inviting mothers of unarmed African-American men who were killed by police to speak.

"Donald Trump is the law and order candidate, and this DNC seems to be about embracing criminality and criminal behavior, trying to mainstream criminal behavior, hold these individuals up as if they're martyrs of the civil rights movement,” said Clarke, who spoke last week at the Republican National Convention and received huge applause when he declared "Blue lives matter."


Clarke later suggested that the killings of these men, including Michael Brown and Eric Garner, were justified because they were “resisting arrest.” Maybe if these men grew up with fathers in their households, the police would not face such encounters, Clarke argued

“When there are no fathers around to shape the behavior of young boys growing up, they grow up to be unmanageable misfits that the police then have to deal with aggressively,” Clarke said.
