Dave Willoughby is asking the same question I asked yesterday. Where’s the proof? All those cameras, phones, iPods, all with video, so where are the pictures of the threat he supposedly represented? This close to a close election and it’s is nowhere to be found? Wouldn’t Barrett gain from from proof of a Walker supporter posing a threat to him or President Clinton? He would. It could make a difference, close elections have turned on less. So where’s the proof? Where are the news stories? Why isn’t it on the Barrett campaign web site? There are none. It – is -a – lie.
Here’s a message from Dave that he is reported to have asked his father to share.
My name is Dave Willoughby. I am the one in the video.
Without being told what I had done, I was handcuffed and escorted off premise. Placed in a squad car and taken to a police station. I asked if I should have my rights read to me and was told “You’re not being arrested.” My personal property was taken from me, I was fingerprinted, mug shot taken and locked in a dark jail cell (lights off) still handcuffed.
I sat in that jail cell, looking out of a meshed wire window, at a large American flag flying in the background. Where am I? How can this be happening? What did I do wrong? I prayed for strength.
When I swore the oath to protect and defend the Constitution, I never realized until recently, how vulnerable our precious freedoms actually are.
I did nothing wrong. There were literally hundreds of cameras at this event. I challenge all media to find one shred of evidence, which would support the actions of the Milwaukee PD officers.
Does Mayor Barrett approve?
Dave Willoughby
