DAVID CLARKE... as in Sheriff... Milwaukee County, WI...
OK... I admit... I've had 2-3 servings of Apple Pie... (Junior Johnson's 70 proof apple pie moonshine)...BUT!!!
I'm on my way home from work today, listening to "The Mic" 92.1 in Madison and I hear Doug Cunningham talking about THIS!!! ...
If this has been diaried... well... dammit! WTF! WHY wasn't it FRONT PAGED!! I had settled in to a comfortable afterlife of lurking on DKos and now I have to Diary...WTF!!
for those of you who have no A/V bandwidth:
In the radio ad, Clarke tells residents personal safety isn't a spectator sport anymore, and that "I need you in the game."
"With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option," Clarke intones.
"You could beg for mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back."
Clarke urges listeners to take a firearm safety course and handle a firearm "so you can defend yourself until we get there."
"You have a duty to protect yourself and your family. We're partners now. Can I count on you?"
umm...WWWWWTTTTFFFF!!!!!
please... allow me to invoke the typical "racist/2nd amendmentist pablum" by averring:
1) Some of my friends own/shoot guns
2) Even though I DON'T own a gun... I freely admit shooting one is a RUSH!!!
3) Yeah... I HATE people sometimes...
4) UM....UM... DAMMIT!...WWW...TTT...FFF!!! I PAY TAXES GODAMMIT!!! THE MIL-F-ing-Waukee Sheriffs Dept. has F-ing surrendered?!?!?!!?
Sorry. No photoshops. Satire?...sorry... but this guy David Clarke is truly EATING BABIES!!
I am moving to Iceland... it's prolly warmer than Madison...;)
