Wis. settles 'open carry' church gun suit Published: Jan. 4, 2011 at 4:12 PM MILWAUKEE, Jan. 4 (UPI) -- A woman arrested after wearing her gun to church will get $7,500 to settle her lawsuit against the city of Brookfield, Wis., and the officers who arrested her. Krysta Sutterfield sued the city and the officers after she was arrested in July for attending services at the Unitarian Universalist Church while wearing her holstered handgun, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Tuesday. After the services someone called police and they responded, stopped Sutterfield as she was driving away and arrested her, the newspaper said. Prosecutors later decided not to file charges. Wisconsin Carry Inc., a gun rights advocacy group Sutterfield belongs to, joined her as a plaintiff in the federal lawsuit. Following the settlement, an attorney for the city said police would still respond in force to calls of a person with a gun, even if it turns out to be an open carry situation. "These are kind of 'gotcha' cases," attorney Greg Gunta said. "The courts are being used for a political stage."

"The courts are being used for a political stage." This pinhead city attorney is using the police and courts as his political stage. Give him the hook!
The courts are being used to provide justice for the accused. The jerks that violated the rights of the individual were punished and deservedly so. I applaud the judge and court for protecting citizens rights.
"These are kind of 'gotcha' cases," attorney Greg Gunta said. "The courts are being used for a political stage." This is why she should NOT have settled.
In the end, the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. ... The heresy of heresies was common sense. ME: Thanks for admitting that you ARE trying to spin this (AZ shooting, and terrorism) onto Palin, and conservatives in general. ME: THERE IS NO MORE MONEY. Inescapable conclusion? Socialists are unable to accept reality. I.e., they're INSANE.
