Menomonie city council desperately wants to be as lame as Eau Claire's

Our highly intelligent and well-informed local pinheads are at it again, this time in Menomonie.


Heeeeeeeeeeeeere's the link: http://www.leadertelegram.com/news/front_page/article_3cd016d4-ee46-11e0-8359-001cc4c03286.html

"We're telling applicants for special events we may not grant their application unless they agree to ban concealed carry," Schofield said


That is a most ludicrous statement from an elected official. These clowns need to be voted out of office. Those of you who are able should run for local office. It is no different from local to county to state to federal levels. Once elected they get big heads and decide what is “BEST” for us citizens. The old saying is If you can’t beat them, join them , then beat them from within. I see this happen at meetings in our local village level politics. They seem to think that 7 controls 8000+. Get on board and run for local office. Carry On!!

Doesn't this fall under prior restraint?

Folks need to find an attorney versed in civil rights who will file for an injunction to nip this in the bud.

I understand that Wisconsin is just starting to have to deal with concealed carry, but a lot of what you folks are having to deal with seems based more on "because we can" and "it scares us" than anything rational.:banghead:

stay safe.

I think that the words on the city seal of Menomonie says it all about their leadership:
Traditional Yet Progressive
From the dictionary:
Traditional: a long-established or inherited way of thinking or acting.

Progressive: favoring or advocating progress, change, improvement, or reform, as opposed to wishing to maintain things as they are, especially in political matters.

They have no idea what the hell they are doing.

Isn't their motto an oxymoron? Yes, I think it is.
