Guns are Arguing Again

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett must be outraged, or maybe not.

His outrage is usually reserved when children are shot, something that might really trouble the community for about a day.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports on three shootings from last night.


I doubt that these incidents won't cause anyone to break out the candles for vigils to stop the violence.

In two of the cases, the shootings occurred during arguments.

Police are still seeking suspects in the shootings. All three victims remain in stable condition today with non-life-threatening wounds, police said.

The latest shooting occurred about midnight when an 18-year-old man was shot near N. 35th St. and W. Auer Ave.

A 17-year-old man was shot about 11 p.m. on the city's south side in the 1500 block of W. Washington St. following an argument on the street, police said.

Another argument on the south side led to the shooting of a 26-year-old woman about 9 p.m. near S. 51st St. and W. Howard Ave.

What can be done to get the guns, especially those darn ILLEGAL guns, to stop arguing?

Milwaukee needs a mayor who can effectively handle the misconduct of those hot-headed guns.

Barrett's not the guy.
