NPR: Wisconsin Attorney General Will Prosecute Hunter Trial

Wisconsin Public Radio's Shawn Johnson is reporting that Wisconsin's Democratic Attorney General Peggy A. Lautenschlager will "take the unusual step of personally prosecuting the case of a man accused of fatally shooting six hunters."

It's good to see a Democrat taking a hard stance on crime (not that this is a controversial move, by any means). Even if this is just a showy move (and I don't think it is), it is an important symbolic action that shows Democrats aren't just "bleeding heart liberals."
