Milwaukee police want to take away the right to legally carry a concealed weapon from anyone who has three misdemeanor convictions over a five-year period. This strikes us as a reasonable idea that state lawmakers should embrace. Frequent brushes with the law, even when relatively minor, indicate a pattern of recklessness that doesn't earn one the right to pack a firearm. [More]Well, hell--using that "logic," wouldn't it be even more reasonable to make them prohibited persons altogether? As a matter of fact, isn't it time we got those who give away baby bunnies and chicks at Easter in a manner noncompliant with WI laws off our streets for good?
Besides, "The issue is personal for [Chief] Flynn."
I'd say so. He did swear an oath to the Constitution.
I guess it doesn't occur to him and the authority worshipers at the Journal-Sentinel that it might just be personal for some of us, too?
