MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - A Democratic state senator from the Milwaukee area posted video from Tuesday night’s protest that he says shows the moments leading up to an attack that left him injured and suffering from a possible concussion.

Sen. Tim Carpenter posted the 11 second clip onto Twitter early Wednesday morning, saying that he “took this pic [and] it got me assaulted & beat up. According to Carpenter, eight to ten people were involved in the attack and were punching and kicking him in the head, neck, and ribs.”

At the time of the tweet, Carpenter stated he might have suffered a concussion, his vision is a little blurry, and his neck and ribs were still sore. State Sen. Tim Carpenter posted a video showing demonstrators rushing toward him during Tuesday night's demonstrations. (Screenshot via Twitter)

Carpenter indicated that as of Wednesday morning he stuck in his office at the state Captiol which has been locked up for safety. Police shared that some tried to force entry into the Capitol, with pepper spray deployed by officers on the inside to keep those individuals away.

Saying “innocent people are going to get killed, he called for an end to the violence.”

What’s that saying? “A conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged”?

It will be interesting to see if his behavior patterns change as a result of this.

I know several people in Madison. They are all subaru-driving, organic kale-eating, knee-jerk conservative-hating, condescending, statist, progressive- leftists.

Hey!! I'm a Subaru driver, and have been one for 11 years (two consecutive cars). They are great cars!

If they approach us we have to use whatever we have because they mean violence. It has to be assumed they mean violence.

It happens but often not. The true believers are like the those commies Stalin executed who often shouted praises to him just before being shot.

He only cares if he gets beat up.

They are also great for camouflage in places like Madison WI, or Westchester County NY. Make sure you have the “COEXIST” and “RESIST” bumper stickers

I live in an apartment in metrowest Boston. Last December I put a magnetic Trump sticker on my rear bumper.

The next morning I went out to the parking lot, and the sticker was gone!

That’s one reason I’m glad I’m moving to Tennessee in three days.

Only scary if you live in a Democrat State or City.

OK, lay off the Subies. These are solid, American made (Lafayette, IN) cars that will take you to the hills in comfort and economy, and over the top of them in safety.

Semper ubi, Subie ubi!

All the rest of that stuff is fight.

“Next time bring licensed and bonded bodyguards.”

Reports I hear is that good bodyguards are hard to find. They’re being scooped up by the leadership of the New York/DC Nazi media who are getting seriously bombarded by death threats. All that’s left are fat mall cops from temp services, and even they ain’t cheap.
