State Sen. Tim Carpenter said he had been heading into work late Tuesday when he stopped to take a video of protesters gathered outside the Capitol. ‘I don’t know what happened … all I did was stop and take a picture … and the next thing I’m getting five-six punches, getting kicked in the head,’ Carpenter, 60, told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

“‘I don’t know what happened …” has a real translation of “I thought this was only supposed to happen to the other guy. We have sides here, right? I have a ‘D’ next to my name!!!”

Boo hoo. Pass me the kleenex. Democrat policies caused this, and encouraged it. Democrats are the reason why it happened. It happened to a democrat, and I don’t care!

The Democrats will have to clearly display Hemmer and Sickle emblems to protect themselves. Ordinary Democrat state senators don’t merit armed personal bodyguards. Sure a complaint has been made to Soros.

Maybe the kick knocked some sense into him, and he will turn Conservative?

After all, a conservative is just a liberal who has been mugged!

I don’t know what happened

I believe it's known as a "beat down", Tim. Just shut up and take it like the racist white guy you are.

Once the statues are destroyed they will go after people.

This is not going to stop. They want to destroy the country.
