Remember a Disarmed Society is a Safer Society

At least that's what Wisconsin's governor keeps saying. Well Mayor of Milwaukee, Tom Barrett, may be changing his tune. Well he probably won't be but either way he got his ass beaten with a pipe. From the story:

"The mayor stopped and said something (to the man) like, 'Let's all cool down here, I'm going to call 911,'" the mayor's spokesman Patrick Curley said. "He said it one or two times according to him. When he took out his phone, that's when the suspect attacked him."

The suspect hit Barrett in the head and torso with a metal pipe. Barrett apparently fought back, fracturing his hand when he punched the suspect.

You know what may have helped prevent Mr. Barrett from getting hit by that pipe, a gun. Shocking I know but a gun versus a pipe is a pretty easy fight to guess the outcome of. Of course being a member of Bloomberg's Mayors Against Illegal Guns horde I doubt he'll change his tune. And he'll probably continue spouting anti-gun propaganda on top of it all.
