More from Progressive Dane’s blame-the-police
‘school-to-prison pipeline’
From the Madison Police crime log:
MPD Violent Crimes Unit detectives are asking the District Attorney to charge a 28-year-old Madison man with five counts of being party to the crime of armed robbery. Eric J. Clay is accused of taking part in a series of violent crimes that victimized cab drivers, homeowners, teenage girls, and gas station clerks.
The MPD has also arrested a 16-year-old juvenile on two counts of party to a crime of armed robbery having found probable cause that he worked with Clay in the commission of at least two of the Madison robberies. In addition, the MPD is asking the 16-year-old be charged with taking part in the robbery of a sandwich delivery driver.
Work on cases involving Clay and/or the 16-year-old also led investigators to three other area teens who are now accused of robbing a second sandwich delivery driver.
Apprehending suspects in this series of disturbing crimes has been a priority for detectives. Strong initial leads came from cab companies as phone records were given to the investigative team. Community members also assisted in providing valuable information to investigators.
In addition to MPD’s cases, Clay and the 16-year-old are accused by Sun Prairie Police of holding up a gas station.
More arrests possible
Clay, who has past convictions for armed robbery, was taken into custody on a probation hold earlier this month, and has been in the Dane County Jail. Here are the crimes to which he and other suspects are connected:
12-14 — W. Shore Dr./Drake St., cab robbery, suspects are Clay and teen.
12-14 — Tower Dr./Sun Prairie, gas station robbery, suspects are Clay and teen.
12-15 — 5300 block Raywood Dr., cab robbery, suspect is Clay.
12-15 — N. Mills St., cab robbery, suspect is Clay.
12-15 — Rutledge St., robbery of teenage girls, suspects are Clay and teen.
12-15 — S. Shore Dr., armed home invasion robbery, suspect is Clay.
12-23 — Odana Rd., sandwich delivery driver robbery, suspect is teen and 14-year-old McFarland girl.
12-31 — Dwight Dr., sandwich delivery driver robbery,Suspects are 14-year-old McFarland girl – from Odana Rd. case, a 15-year-old Madison boy, and a 12-year-old Madison boy.
Detectives believe others were involved in some of these cases. They are continuing to investigate and more arrests are possible. Anyone with information is urged to contact Madison Area Crime Stoppers at (608) 266-6014.
Blaska’s Bottom Line: Watching what district attorney Ismael Ozanne does with these folks (although juveniles disappear into anonymity).

Crime in Madison is a product of three things progressives love. The first is government housing that provides a cozy nest for people who’s entire lives are about bad decisions. This in turn is a magnet for resident’s friends, family and baby daddies, who suck at life as well, further enriching the community. Next are the array of social services (free stuff) that exist to provide the constant management this population requires to prevent them going full Mad Max. The final element is law enforcement and judiciary that has been aligned to focus on the comfort and convenience of the offenders instead of the safety of us that can somehow make it through the day without robbing or assaulting people. I suppose we can also add a school system that provides apprenticeships is crime without consequence.
What we are seeing in Madison in entirely the result of progressive policies. In any social structure, you get what you incentivize for. Meanwhile, lefties continue to dump their garbage in the living room and wonder why they have roaches.

I disagree.
Crime in Madison is just like crime everywhere, it’s all a product of only one thing – corrupted morals. Why those morals are corrupted is a huge discussion but what is completely obvious is that words and actions of progressives are enabling corrupt morals; therefore, progressives are enabling crime but they don’t care because to them the ends justifies the means.

As it relates to the trolling deflection above about Trump negotiating a temporary end to the government shutdown, or as ignorant progressives like to claim, getting his butt kicked by Nancy. Trump has known all along that the Democrats will climb on their emotional soapbox and completely oppose anything related to a border wall, so why would a the President knowing that fact move forward with a strategy that would certainly shutdown the government for an extended period of time? The progressives extremists currently controlling the Democratic Party have absolutely no political strategic foresight except to oppose Trump and that’s a strategy known by Trump and completely predictable. Have any of you played a game of chess against an opponent that is completely predictable? I think Trump is taking advantage of their completely predictable behavior and might very well have just spend the last 30+ days setting up the Democrats to be buried under their own rhetoric and a new border “wall”.
Here is the soon to come Democratic Party battle flag…

Storm trooping Roger Stone’s house pre-dawn under the guise of preserving evidence although Stone has publicly commented for months about his surveillance. Stone could have destroyed incriminating evidence anytime during the past 18 months. Pure intimidation for those watching.
Within the first seven minutes of the interview one learns the Supreme Court unanimously (9-0) overturns the unethical manipulation of the law by Weissmann/Mueller in the Enron case where lives and jobs were destroyed. Weissmann is subsequently promoted.
