During a night of so-called “protests” late Tuesday in Wisconsin’s capital city of Madison, Black Lives Matter extremists not only ripped down and decapitated a statue of an anti-slavery activist but also reportedly attacked a state senator.
The “protests” began after local authorities arrested a BLM extremist who’d stomped into a downtown restaurant with a baseball bat and used a megaphone to harass customers.
Watch:

Because certain people believe that they ought to be above the law, the BLM extremist’s arrest spurred widespread mayhem and chaos.
“Fury exploded outside the Wisconsin State Capitol on Tuesday night as protesters smashed windows at the statehouse, attacked a state senator, and tore down two iconic statues — including one of an abolitionist who died trying to end slavery during the Civil War,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.
It’s not clear why the media continue to label BLM extremists “protesters.”
During the chaos, state Sen. Tim Carpenter, a Democrat, was severely beaten for the crime of trying to take a picture on public property, according to reports:

Wisconsin State Senator Tim Carpenter was just attacked by a group of protesters on Fairchild Street.
Protesters said he provoked them.
“This is the first time I’ve been assaulted” he says

I believe this is State Senator Tim Carpenter. Minutes earlier he told us the protesters assaulted him. Then he collapsed walking towards the Capitol. We called paramedics. An ambulance is here now. pic.twitter.com/uUSdKyQ1hp

In tweets of his own, Carpenter later confirmed all this and added that he may have a concussion.
Look:
This is the picture that got me assaulted and beat up by a mob. Punched & kicked in the head. Might have concussion, left eye a little blurry, cheek shollen, sore neck and ribs. This has to stop before some innocent person get killed. I locked up in the Capitol until it’s safe

Some critics who responded to the senator’s tweets expressed hope that his experience would serve as a much-needed wake-up call regarding BLM’s extremism.
Look:
I’m so very sorry, Tim. Truly I am, but please let this be a major wake up call. There do not seem to be many adults left in the room anymore, and allowing angry mobs to take over is not sustainable. I want you to feel better soon, but you all need to crack down on this insanity.

I am deeply sorry this happened to you but take a moment and reflect on what you have been supporting sir. Your voice has led your people down this path by you taking a knee to this kind of MOB! I’m a veteran and fought for all AMERICANS, not one color or another. Don’t pander.

And then the mob comes for you… when will you realize it’s never enough? These people will never be placated nor satisfied. I’m sorry for what happened to you, but wake up and get a hold on this nonsense. Time to actually govern.
— Wes Marsh (@WesMarshDigital) June 24, 2020
I’m sorry to hear about this. I hope you recover fully. Please know that Antifa & BLM are not your friends and have said multiple times that ALL American political figures are enemies of their respective organizations. Please oppose the mob so we can go back to being a Republic.

It’s a wake-up call that’s desperately needed.
In an op-ed this week, The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board warned that the ongoing, BLM-linked, Maoist-like cultural revolution sweeping America has the potential to destroy America unless “the liberal establishment” takes a stand.
“The leaders of universities, foundations, museums, the media and corporations need to draw on their remaining moral authority to make the case for a liberal society. … Social comity in a polarized society will not be achieved through coercion and struggle sessions. If liberals won’t stop the Jacobin left, expect a political backlash and social fracture that will make Donald Trump’s Presidency look like a tea party,” the board wrote.
Yet the liberal establishment is, for the most part, continuing to coddle the extremists (while simultaneously smearing the extremists’ victims), who this week alone have vandalized St. John’s Church again, tried setting up an autonomous zone in D.C., pledged to topple the Emancipation Memorial and, as of last night, toppled the statue of an abolitionist.
“In Madison, statues of Wisconsin’s motto ‘Forward’ and of Col. Hans Christian Heg were dragged away from their spots guarding the statehouse,” the Sentinel Journal reported.
“Heg was an anti-slavery activist who fought and died for the Union during the U.S. Civil War. His nearly 100-year-old sculpture was decapitated and thrown into a Madison lake by protesters.”
It’s not clear how many more congressmen will have to be beaten, how many more statues will have to be toppled and how many more innocent people will have to be hurt before the liberal establishment admits the truth about their beloved “protesters.”
