I took my family, manufacturing company, and future out of Wisconsin 15 years ago for this and economic reasons. It is a decision I have never regretted.

Barrett usually travels with a security detail when attending official events, A security detail for a halfa** mayor.
Dang!!

Did he speak openly against health care or obama?

"... he can carry on brief conversations." So is this better than he was before the attack?

He has been vocally against Obama’s plan.
I wonder if this is a set up by union thugs or just an random crazy. Whatever the case, it is possible that the woman was just creating a distraction in order to make the mayor vulnerable.

Wisconsin is one of only two states that does not allow concealed carry of handguns.

Barrett is a democrat, supporter of obama, and I would guess a supporter of the various democrat/obama health plan(s).

Barrett is an ex Demmy Congressman. I’m surprised the JS (jerk and slime) didn’t blame it on Republican operatives or Sarah Palin.

I’m hoping from this that the Mayor gains a greater appreciation for self-defense.

Barrett and his family .. saw an altercation and heard a woman shouting that someone should call 911. Barrett began calling 911 when the suspect who had been attacking the woman, ran toward Barrett and began striking him with a metal pipe.

I guess 911 safety is nothing but a pipe dream. CCW makes for a polite public and a wary criminal population. Ever been to a gun show? Everyone there is so polite and respectful.
