Teenage girls must scare the heck out of him. When's he up for re-election? Who is running against him? Time for him to go!

what’s up with the badge? Is he also a police officer? Also, is that holster secure? It looks wide open.

Does the badge say “NOT A COP ANYMORE” in huge red letters? Can aspiring LEO wear them now too?

A pic of an insecure, petty man who uses a gun to compensate for his short comings, with a strong, smart and bold girl.

Our future is bright in the hands of these smart, passionate, dedicated, and courageous students. Let them know you're behind them all the way!

Today's #NeverAgain Drop-Ins for Gun Reform was a success.
Thank you to Grace Wagner, Heather Swanson, and those of you whose names I'd love to add here if you would tag yourself or comment below. Aside from a snafu for meeting this morning (and thank you for your patience as we learn how to pull off a lobby day....we appreciate that), we made an impact by showing up to meet with the people who've been elected to represent ALL of us. We plan to do this again. And again. And as many times as necessary to achieve the changes necessary for safer schools and more responsible gun laws. Below is Delaney, a high school student and charter member of Left of the I, speaking with Senator Van Wanggaard about the need for gun reform to keep herself and all our children safer in school. #warriorintraining

Wisconsin State Assembly


https://legis.wisconsin.gov/assembly/asgt/submenu/visit-security-weapons/

Sergeant at Arms Office


Building Firearms and Weapon Policy

Open carry is not allowed inside of the Wisconsin State Capitol.
Concealed Carry

The Wisconsin State Capitol houses all three branches of state government and each has its own policy on firearms. Firearms are not allowed in the offices of the Wisconsin State Capitol Police or in the Supreme Court. Legislative offices throughout the Capitol can choose whether to post a sign on their door to signify that firearms are not allowed in their offices.
Assembly Policy

Except as provided below, an individual may carry a concealed weapon in any space within the State Capitol that is assigned to the State Assembly or the State Assembly’s members or officers, unless the individual is prohibited by law or Assembly policy from carrying the concealed weapon.

Assembly Representative Offices:

An Assembly representative may post a sign in a prominent place near the public entrance to the office, stating a weapon restriction for that office. The Assemly shall provide uniform signage for use by Assembly Representatives under this policy.

Representatives interested in posting a sign can contact the Sergeant’s office to have a sign placed (on the lower left hand corner of the glass of the entry door). The same signs are used throughout the building, they look like this:..............

1. 🤬😡🤯

[a kennedy]

2. WTH IS THAT???

he needs to be reprimanded and suspended WITHOUT pay for what?? THE REST OF HIS TERM.

[Angry Dragon]

3. That gun is NOT concealed carry............it is in plain sight.......that is open carry

[AJT]

4. I live in WI, it sucks. If the opportunity to move ever comes up I'm out of here.

Wisconsin is a wholly owned subsidiary of Koch enterprises, with a big dollop of "Christianity".

[Luciferous]

17. I grew up in WI and am now in MS. Trust me,

there are worse places to live!

[AJT]

18. I lived in MS in the 80s....after Walker was elected here

I started calling WI Wississippi.

[Freethinker65]

5. How stupid. And looks like she could have grabbed it from him if she wanted to without a problem

Because he was posing for the photo op exposing his penis, er gun, to show how manly he is.

[Thunderbeast]

6. The message is clear...

Just remember, little girl: If I decided to kill you right now, I could.

There must be an ammosexual thrill associated with wielding that kind of asymmetric power.

It is sad to see small men incapable of outgrowing their eight year old brains trying to maintain psychological advantage in any relationship. The weapon compensates for inadequacy.

[gratuitous]

11. That's my takeaway, too

"You just mind your p's and q's, little lady, and we'll have none of your sass."

This photo really needs to go viral in his district.

[riversedge]

14. His distrist is gerrymandered red red red.

[gratuitous]

16. A lot of districts are

But a credible opponent can cause people to re-think their fealty toward the incumbent, especially when he's pulling this kind of nonsense.

[Maven]

7. These insecure, pathetic little dillweeds.

These childish, obnoxious tw*ts.

These weak, overcompensating, fragile little white men.

Sorry, it needs to be said. Over and over.

[JDC]

9. He is also wearing a badge. Is he a cop also?

[JDC]

10. He worked for Racine PD from '72 - 2001

Not sure of the Badge dynamics here with his weapon - outside of the obvious fact he is meeting w a HS student about guns while wearing one. Completely out of line.

[riversedge]

15. Prob. a fake badge like Sheriff David Clarke wears.

[Crunchy Frog]

12. I wonder how long it's been since he's seen his penis.

He must be compensating for something.

[justhanginon]

13. He traded his penis for the right to carry a pistol and

wear a "Dick-less Tracy" badge.
