Waukesha MAiG member Nelson gone,:celebrate and the Ashland mayor member did not run. If the new Waukesha and Ashland mayors do not join, two more less members in in Bloomberg, Daily and Barrett's MAiG. TheRhinelander MAiG member got in.

The roll of Wisconsin mayors that do not support the constitutional right to bear arms is down to 5, the mayors of Madison, Milwaukee, Rhinelander (why member?), St. Frances (why member?), West Bend (why member?).

not really sure about the rhinelander mayor, that seems odd. he is probably not well received.
Most likely is a Barrett wannabe. :banghead: I don't think that there are so manyillegal gun transactions occurring in Rhinelander that would require its mayor to use taxpayer funds to participate in MAiG. (Unless he agrees with its real agenda - more and more laws that make it increasingly difficult for individuals to own firearms.)

The one that caught me by surprise was the Park Falls Mayor being a member!

Especially since Park Falls hasnamed themselves as "the Grouse hunting capitol of the world"
There are very few things going in in Park Falls besides hunting, fishing, and the business's that support either sport.
People visiting the area are either there to hunt, or fish. And it's also where the St. Croix fishing rod factory is located. other then them or the paper-mill, any other employment is in the service industry, and they all rely on hunters, fisherman, and snowmobilers.

Rhinelander on the other hand is the county seat, and it has some groups that think they are gang members, but in actuality they are just wannabe's.

I cannot remember any murders in this area that even had a gun used in the commission of a murder, except for when the cop named Tyler Peterson (may he rot in hell)used his duty rifle to shoot 7 people in their home, and later take his own life with his police-issued sidearm!!

The latest MAiG roster listing doesn't show Park Falls as a member. It took a while but looks like the mayor there got the message, or finally figured out what the MAiG real agenda is. Looks like the Rhinelander mayor is not quite as smart.
