Was Flynn the typical grammar school “bad” kid who bullied everyone? You know, the bad kids who were later in high school detention?
 
From what I’ve seen and experienced many police officers were once the kids that were always in trouble, the class bullies. Now, as police officers, they continue their childhood behavior, legally.
 
Me thinks, Milwaukee’s Chief Ed Flynn was one of those. He is so eager to defy Wisconsin’s Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen on the statement that open carry is legal in Wisconsin.
 
By the way, open carry has been legal for 137 years! This is NOT new. The thinking in that era was to let bad guys know who had a gun. NO SECRETS.
 
With the over zealous public we have now; a public that wants to destroy anyone who supports the right and lawful constitutional United States, not to mention what Wisconsin’s founders desired 137 years ago, gun owners would be much better off with a Concealed Carry law.
 
Most states with concealed carry laws require training before the applicant gets his/her permit. This is an absolute must. Those states have standards exceeding their police departments’ requirements.
 
Half of self-defense is the drill, like a ‘fire drill’. It prepares the gun owner’s mind and body for what to do, when. Such drills are vital in everything we do. It’s how we prepare for a flat tire, a house fire, a vehicle suddenly crossing the centerline, heading  strait toward us.
 
Concealed Carry permits should require proper education and training. Concealed Carry should also be legal in Wisconsin.
 
Many people carry concealed now, illegally. They prefer to be judged by 12, than carried by six. I can’t blame them.
 
Concealed Carry protects EVERYONE, even those who can’t tolerate the thought of a gun. NO ONE knows who is “packing.”  It also protects the pubic without putting people in a frenzy.
 
It is great we have a good police force, no matter the officers’ backgrounds, but they can’t be with us 24/7. We are the only ones who can protect ourselves. WE are our first line of self-defense. WE are the ones who go through our personal “drill.” We need lawful Concealed Carry.
 
Chief Flynn will lose in his defiant rebellion. If he proceeds as he is threatening, he will be an embarrassment to Milwaukee and cost his city mightily in legal fees.
