He's giving out the opposite of facts here. This isn't a difference of opinion. This is him just making shit up. Delusional or just plain liar, whatever it is, Walker officially sucks, and nobody here can defend his statement.
Yesterday, in a guest column in the aptly named Hot Air, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker blamed President Obama for the "disturbing trend of police officers being murdered on the job."
Walker, frantically trying to catch-up to Donald Trump in the not-so-thinly-disguised racism department, says that Obama's "anti-police" and racially-divisive "attitude" is "not the America I grew up in" and caused a throng of Black Lives Matters protesters in St. Paul recently to chant "pigs in a blanket, fry like bacon" at nearby police officers. All this, according to Walker, is causing police officers to be murdered on the job like never before.
Let's take a closer look at this "disturbing trend" that is, in Walker's words, "not the America I grew up in. "
As you can see in the graph above, when Walker was growing up, there were nearly twice as many police shooting fatalities at this point in President Reagan's second term. In fact, police shooting fatalities are down from last year and are also lower than at this point in Presidents Clinton and Bush's second term in office.
