They are going to lose Madison? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitol

Or did you mean capital? If so, you plan on stealing goods from the store? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_(economics)

capital

While waiting for my annual Dr.visit in MKE my cell rings and it's who else but Econo foods corporate ! I was told the signs have been removed from the Clintonville stores and all the store in WI were told NOT TO POST. The signs were apparently sent to the individual stores by the American Grocers Association and were told by them that all business's in WI must be posted or will be posted he wasn't sure what he was told by the manager in Clintonville.I told him of the NO Guns = No Business Cards and he said please no ! we don't need bad publicity business is tight enough. He said thanks for bringing it to his attention and he was going to call a few others who had emailed him.
I will be sending him a copy of Act 35 shortly as he is in MI.

The stores were given the signs by the American Grocers Assoc. and were told by THEM they had to post them as well as all businesses in WI. seems to me the AGA needs some calls and emails"

I am wondering who else is P. O.d at the AGA. They just stabbed every gun owner in Wisconsin in the back.

I am calling the AGA tomorrow.

One business definitely gets it! He doesn't want to ostracize some of his customers.

It sounds like Econo Foods is in bad shape. According to Wikepedia,
All 5 Econofoods stores in Cedar Rapids, Iowa have closed. This in addition to stores in Charles City, Clinton, Cresco, Fort Madison, Iowa City, Manchester, Marshalltown, Oskaloosa, Dubuque, Waterloo, and Cedar Falls. The store in Fairfield, Iowa has been closed as well and the building was torn down in the summer of 2009 to be replaced with a new 75,000-square-foot (7,000 m[SUP]2[/SUP]) Hy-Vee. Also, Stores in Rochester, Winona, Minnesota; Freeport, Galesburg and Monmouth, Illinois; Peru, Illinois; Cheyenne, Wyoming, Chilton, Wisconsin and one store in Hudson, Wisconsin have been closed. The store in Ottumwa, Iowa and Muscatine has been rebranded as a Wholesale Food Outlet, another Nash Finch chain. Additional stores in Muscatine have been closed.
