Go Gwen! Back when she was in the State Senate and the Wisconsin legislature was ‘debating’ the now unconstitutional gay marriage ban, Moore was a force to be reckoned with, drawing cheers and tears from those of us watching from the gallery. I’ll never forget her courage and leadership in those dark days. She’s a true inspiration. Keep fighting for the greater good.

The nerve of the woman…being Black in public. There are laws about that sort of thing…at least…well, I’m sure the police think there are such laws. If you’re “arrested” but never charged doesn’t that constitute false arrest and imprisonment? If she did something wrong she should be charged and allowed to have a trial. If not, she shouldn’t have been arrested in the first place. Are the police afraid they’d look stupid in court? Most likely, because it’s hard to find that Black in Public law on the books.
