Black Lives Matter (BLM) zealots are demanding answers after a black man who’d reportedly stabbed a cop was killed by Wisconsin police on Wednesday.
BLM, which thrives on defending and upholding the worst people among us, took their demands for answers to a briefing held a day later by Madison officials and police, including Police Chief John Patterson.
During the briefing, a BLM “protester” seized the microphone from Patterson so that he could lecture the crowd about why the police, capitalism, imperialism, and so-called Zionism are bad.

As the hooligan spoke, another BLM “protester” held up a sign that read “corrupt cops deserve to die too,” according to Fox News.
BLM protesters reportedly also crashed a concert and hassled its attendees.

These protests are on behalf of 38-year-old Corey Durell Ruiz, a homeless man with a criminal history spanning decades.
“He repeatedly cycled in and out of jail in cases involving failure to pay child support, vehicle theft, bail jumping, threats to authorities, resisting an officer, theft, attempted invasion of privacy and cocaine possession,” according to Fox News.
On Wednesday, he “fled the area [where the shooting happened] on a bicycle and rode through backyards as officers responded to theft reports,” Fox News notes.
When officers caught up to him, a struggle ensued during which he drew a “fixed-blade knife” and “injured an officer” with it, according to the Madison Police Department.
The officers tried to detain him with a taser but eventually resorted to opening fire, at which point he was killed.

Late Thursday, BLM activists and their Democrat allies held a vigil during which former Madison alderwoman Juliana Bennett referenced the killing years earlier of fentanyl addict and criminal deviant George Floyd.
“Bennett said that police killings are policy decisions and noted that in a liberal community such as Madison, police violence and racism are often met with ‘committee after committee, meeting after meeting,’ and implored community members to continue pressing local officials for change,” according to the Wisconsin Examiner.
The Examiner identified the protester seen earlier as Carlos LeMar Dixon.
“You’re going to say the same thing you all say every time a black body gets shot down in this city,” Dixon yelled at one point during the briefing Thursday. “Have no fear, the anti-Zionist is here!”
Back in May, Dixon posted videos to social media showing him stealing yard signs for local Assembly candidates Frencesa Hong and Ryan Clancy.
Despite the candidates both being radical socialists, Dixon was still angry at them anyway for being too pro-Israel.

Dixon would himself be a criminal, except that Hong and Clancy said that neither of them are interested in seeking charges against him.
Speaking with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Clancy alleged that charges would not be “particularly helpful.”
Meanwhile, Dixon is running for governor under the name Wisconsin Rebuild.
“Campaign finance records show he has contributed around $3,500 to his own campaign and has only a handful of individual donors,” according to the the Sentinel. “Dixon filed his declaration of candidacy in September 2025 and has submitted his statement of economic interests.”
Yet he hasn’t filed nomination papers with signatures from voters and instead plans to be a write-in candidate.
