Congressman Darin LaHood believes the public needs to wait for facts about a case that is released before reacting.

Reactions to Jacob Blake's shooting led to rioting and more destruction, this time in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Congressman LaHood says it is important details of cases are released rather than reacting to 20-seconds of a video from social media.  

President Trump was in Kenosha, Wisconsin last Tuesday. LaHood believes despite the pleas from some in the area to not come, there was support for the President's arrival.

The reaction to Blake's shooting quickly spilled into the sports world where the NBA, NHL, and some MLB teams did not play for a two-day period the previous week. Congressman LaHood is disappointed to see the politicization of sports.

LaHood is a former prosecutor and many were critical of the seven shots fired into the back of Blake in front children in the vehicle he was trying to enter. Without knowing all the details of the case, he did not dismiss the idea that could lead to criminal charges against the officer.

Congressman LaHood supports everyone's right to gather and protest peacefully. He believes the destruction of property taking place in so many parts of the country is why so many people are focused on the issue heading towards the election.
