Another chapter in Wisconsin’s political freak show

Subscribe to BizTimes Daily – Local news about the people, companies and issues that impact business in Milwaukee and Southeast Wisconsin.

In one of the digital news feeds I subscribe to, it was reported Wednesday that the United Nations was calling an emergency security meeting to investigate allegations that the Syrian government has used deadly chemicals on its citizens who were protesting.

In the very next headline, it was reported that police in Wisconsin’s Capitol in Madison had again arrested, handcuffed and charged its protesting citizens…because they were gathering and singing. The arrested suspects included grandmothers and firefighters.

The consecutive headlines kind of put the whole political freak show that is Wisconsin in perspective.
