He lives with his wife, Jennifer, and their lovely baby daughter, Kyla Audrey, in Franklin.
UPDATE: Is Milwaukee's police chief a closet liberal?
Last year, I asked that question. I think we have our answer.
From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
“Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn said he'll continue to tell officers they can't assume people are carrying guns legally in a city that has seen nearly 200 homicides in the past two years.
‘My message to my troops is if you see anybody carrying a gun on the streets of Milwaukee, we'll put them on the ground, take the gun away and then decide whether you have a right to carry it,' Flynn said. 'Maybe I'll end up with a protest of cowboys. In the meantime, I've got serious offenders with access to handguns. It's irresponsible to send a message to them that if they just carry it openly no one can bother them’.”
I attended a meeting last year where Chief Flynn mentioned that in some parts of the city of Milwaukee, criminals feel their only way of survival is to have a gun.
Well, then, Chief, how about the rest of us?
