It was easy with ALEC. 32000 UNION public sector jobs. It is not as easy this time with out using your tax dollars. Scott Walker has created ALL Wisconsin`s budget problems working for ALEC. In 1997 Walker and Prosser as state assemblymen championed for ALEC with truth in sentencing telling the legislatures it would not cost a dime it was to give judges not parole boards the control over sentencing. Then Walker filibustered to stop sentencing changes after the fact misleading ALL the legislatures. With out the sentencing changes Wisconsin`s prisons quadrupled over night. Most people sentenced to 2 years now had to serve as much as 6o years. As the Wisconsin Budget watch Blog shows . Stopping just a percentage of these long sentences Wisconsin would save 707 million per year. Wisconsin could have free tuition colleges. It shows Wisconsin has wasted 200 billion if you add the numbers to the state budget since 1997. Not including the building new or remodeling of 71 courthouses & 71 county jails & 273 police stations and dozens of prisons 28 billion plus interest. The total is over 70 BILLION plus the 100 Billion spent by social services to support prisoners families because the bread winner was a political prisoner as US Att gen Eric Holder explained. Then farming out prisoners in several states until the courts realized it was not allowed in the Wisconsin constitution. Wisconsin then hired 32000 union public sector workers to fill the jobs housing the prisoners from deputies , judges, district attorneys all owe Walker for creating there jobs. 32000 UNION PUBLIC SECTOR JOBS. This cost taxpayers over 3.8 billion or a half million per day to house these EXTRA prisoners per day in Milwaukee county alone. Wisconsin claims it has 24,000 prisoners compared to Minnesota`s 5500. Wisconsin`s corrections population is 104,000 with over 28,000 prisons in Milwaukee county alone . In 1995 Milwakee county had less than 1000 prisoners . Is Scott Walker moving Wisconsin forward ? This your reason for budget problems in Wisconsin. Big spender big government Scott Walker. Why does he not work for the people he is taking his check from the people ?<br />Wisconsin Budget watch blog has a great article on this. <br />392 NUNS signed Walkers recall petitions for reason. They are True Christians.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228999513412422711.post-18983407083731494982012-05-01T17:54:13.076-05:002012-05-01T17:54:13.076-05:00I care if someone has a gun or not, because that i...I care if someone has a gun or not, because that increases my chance of being injured or killed. Just the fact that a lethal weapon is in my vicinity increases the chances of being injured or killed.<br /><br />I don't have to do anything to be a victim of a shooting. I just have to be within gunshot.<br /><br />People rarely fight cops, and if they do, it's because the cops are doing something to the person I doubt you would do. The point is that a criminal is much less likely to attack you if you have your weapon in full view than if not. So, concealing a weapon has the opposite effect of protecting oneself, and the question becomes why do you want to conceal your weapon if you're not a criminal?Publius No. 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/00872696997177449097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228999513412422711.post-91061171472014625982012-04-25T20:33:29.201-05:002012-04-25T20:33:29.201-05:00if your not a criminal why would you care if someo...if your not a criminal why would you care if someone has a gun or not. Why do you feel you need to know if someone has a gun or not. Cops have guns exposed yet people still fight with them. If your a criminal and you have to worry that someone you want to mug or rape or somehow harm them, the thougt that they may be packing will deter most. But I do agree concealing them can make them harder to use but if you are concealing and trying to protect yourself you better be prepared to use it.wingman69https://www.blogger.com/profile/08208855195153506506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228999513412422711.post-80165628131849317142012-04-19T21:31:29.430-05:002012-04-19T21:31:29.430-05:00Doesn't concealing a weapon make it more diffi...Doesn't concealing a weapon make it more difficult to use, if that time were to come?<br /><br />There just isn't any logical argument for not respectfully letting others know that you are currently carrying a lethal weapon.Publius No. 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/00872696997177449097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228999513412422711.post-74667595925850639202012-04-19T21:14:48.771-05:002012-04-19T21:14:48.771-05:00Finally, someone has answered that question. Thank...Finally, someone has answered that question. Thank you very much!<br /><br />Your comparison to condoms is flawed, however. You keep a condom in your wallet, because it's easiest to carry there and make sure you always have one.<br /><br />It, however, is not easy to carry a gun in your wallet, or even your pocket. Also, displaying a condom for all to see doesn't increase your protection, but displaying a gun does. Who's going to mess with you if they know you're carrying a gun. If you appear just like everyone else, it's as if you're waiting for someone to mess with you and then whip out your gun.<br /><br />It's one thing to get in a fist fight. It's a completely different thing to get in a fist fight with someone who now intends to use their once hidden gun to defend themselves, especially when most fist fights don't end in anywhere near close to death.<br /><br />I guarantee that fist fight doesn't happen if they see your gun first.<br /><br />If you're using it for protection, what's the sense in hiding it? Don't hide it, and you'll have a better shot at never having to use it.<br /><br />Where in Wisconsin, outside of Milwaukee, is it even plausible to always need to carry a gun around for protection anyway? Do you really feel safer now that people are running around hiding weapons they have every intention of using if brought to it?Publius No. 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/00872696997177449097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228999513412422711.post-58384630589521853612012-04-19T20:17:21.681-05:002012-04-19T20:17:21.681-05:00"Concealed carry - opposed by 60%

It's for protection, not show.alphabetbobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991612674409153149noreply@blogger.com
