State Senator Neal Kedzie says his son was attacked while trying to stop someone from stealing his Romney/Ryan yard sign. Whitewater Police tell NBC15 News this is an active investigation.
Here is the statement released by Senator Neal Kedzie:
Early on Friday morning, October 19th, my son Sean was awakened by noises outside his residence in Whitewater. As he went to see what the commotion was about, he noticed an individual removing a Romney/Ryan yard sign from his property. He yelled to the person that they were taking something not theirs and to return it immediately.
The individual returned the sign, however, a second person confronted and attacked Sean without warning.
Sean was wrestled to the ground by both persons, held down by a constricting chokehold, and struck repeatedly about the face and head.
He nearly passed out from the chokehold and suffered contusions to his face and eyes. (graphic photo)

Dayumm, that’s a sexy gun. As an aside, in Texas it’s legal to use deadly force to protect private property, at least it was when I lived there and had a Texas CCW. (1990’s)
That would be a 10-4! :-)
Wow, that's cool. So if you have a garden in Texas and someone steals a couple of tomatoes you can plink him. Just found this article which confirms it. I might just have to move to Texas some day. Too bad it's so darn hot. :-)
Liberals are nasty and pushy to say the least. My mother who is in her 60s told me today that when she went to renew her drivers license at the MVA and, the guy behind the counter saw she was registered as a Republican and said, “Are you sure you want to stay registered as a Republican and not switch to being a registered Democrat?”
Pushing people to switch parties right at the MVA. State employee..ya’ know?
Sounds like time to put up a much larger Romney/Ryan sign, along with someone to watch over it from a concealed position. Importantly, Tasers that shoot electric probes are legal, with a permit, in Wisconsin, since last year.
So imagine a couple of perps doing a twitchy version of The Worm Dance, that is more like an epileptic seizure.
HOLD ALL MY PHONE CALLS AND BRING ME MORE BEER! |
My guess is union thugs
Try that at my house....and you’ll be met by me sporting a Glock 30, .45 ACP loaded with hollow points.
No, I’m not kidding.
Ya know...there are lots of hints that you’re in the midst of an increased threat situtation:
1. Volatile Politicl climate in WI,
2. Father is a State Senator in the party hated by extremists,
3. Romney sign in your yard,
4. You hear a commotion outside, at night.
Now, #4 is enough for me to exit the house armed.....But when all 4 are true....?
Tempted to pick up a few Romney signs as bait tommorrow.. I would love to catch one of these motherf*ckers- they’d be lucky if all they got was a beating...
It’s not a racist crime.
It’s a HATE crime.
The coldest winter I ever experienced was when I lived in Amarillo.
Someone got zapped.
One moral of this story is that you never ever put out a yard sign without first rubbing poison ivy all over it.
I love it......that literally made my girlfriend and I LOL. :)
I've got 10 signs out on my corner lot.... 2 Romney/Ryan signs, one facing each way. Plus House & Senator signs, state senator & rep candidates, city council candidates, 1 marriage amendment Vote Yes sign, and a photo Id Vote Yes sign. And I will be standing guard & ready with appropriate protective measures, especially on Halloween night and also the night of the election.
Kudos to Mark Belling for telling this story on air this afternoon!
The Dem Party needs to start policing itself, it has become littered with people who have no self-discipline or self-control and to whom violence is a way to show their disagreement. Not all are that way, of course, but they need to be ashamed of so many who have taken the forefront and run away with their Party. They need to put some politicians and leaders in place who don't advise them, as Obama has, to "get in the face" of people who have different opinions and philosophies.
Our government talks against bullying - but both by example and the ridicule Obama loves to engage in, and by inciting dissension, jealousy, greed, and hatred instead of love and acceptance and understanding among the people of this country...this Administration has only fired the flames of chaos and division. It is a sad, sad day when a man is beaten up because he put a sign in his yard. What next?
We must be neighbors since I have my lawn decorated with the same stuff! ;)Well, I have the G-21 instead...I have big hands.
