Racine sheriff refuses to follow new law


This was bound to happen.

One of the bad bills to come out of the previous legislative session in Madison that was controlled completely by Democrats is the requirement that law enforcement officers collect all kinds of racial data at every traffic stop. The law went into effect January 1, 2001. A source at the Milwaukee Police Department tells me it’s costing the department $100,000 to comply.

The Racine County Sheriff is refusing to follow the law and he has a great point.
Christopher Schmaling says his officers are distracted from their vital function of public safety by a new time consuming 30-question form

Republicans could and should repeal this law.

Meanwhile, the NAACP is upset with Schmaling.
