If you can’t beat ‘em, lie to them!
Progressives never say, “That’s it. Our work here is done.” No, the nation, their state and city are in permanent crisis mode, demanding massive spending, court-packing, protest marches, and ever-escalating “demands.” Which is why our Progressive … acquaintances reflexively raise their fists, as if responding to Dr. Pavlov’s command. (Remember their logo for the Act 10 insurrection?) Somehow, their raised fist beats our arsenal of AR-15s and bear spray. This ain’t rock, paper, scissors!

Still, they keep getting elected here in the Emerald City. Besides cheating, our strategy for taking back city hall, the schools, and Dane County is to out-do Madame Brenda, Ald. Benford and the other crazies with our own misleading campaign promises for:
A more Progressive Madison WI:
• Teach restorative drivers ed at the juvenile detention center. If kids are going to steal cars, at least they could drive them safely.
• Install drop boxes for spent firearm cartridges at strategic street corners. Keep Madison neat!
• Heated benches on roadway median strips for the comfort of panhandlers. Bonus idea: ATM machines.

• Alarm pulls next to school fire alarms to alert Ali Muldrow when implicit bias breaks out.
• Signal your virtue with ready-made plywood at Menard’s and Home Depot pre-painted with trite racial justice slogans and caricatures of police as pigs.
• Offer Nikole Hannah-Jones, principal author of 1619 Project, the job as the next UW-Madison chancellor.
• Officially recognize the “residents” of the Dane County Jail as a Madison affordable housing neighborhood with the right to object to residential in-fill proposals.
• Retrofit the ever-spinning revolving doors at the courthouse to generate clean, renewable electricity.
• Place Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion kiosks on Capitol Square and at Hilldale, East Towne and West Towne. Free tote bags emblazoned with the word “GUILTY!”
• Surgically attach permanent Covid face masks for the virtuous at drive-thru clinics.
• Levy a 2 percent surcharge on property taxpayers afflicted with white privilege.
• Signs at the city limits: “Welcome to Madison, named after Oscar Madison of the Odd Couple, not that slave owner.”
Blaska’s Bottom Line: We would suggest decriminalizing crime, but they’ve already done that.
Picnic point is one big phallic symbol and rape adjacent.
Why hasn’t the University brought in bulldozers??? I am beyond disgusted with the phallus advocating Chancellor.
re: heated benches …. at least UW is finally divesting itself of the WHITE supremacist benches:

No one no matter what their age is can take a concealed firearm into a school in the State of Wisconsin, period, end of discussion.

Knowing your complete lack of logic and your pattern of commentary, this inquiry from you is clearly sealioning but I’m going to answer it anyway just to see what you do next; choose wisely.
The law is because 18 year old’s are considered an “adult” in our society and all adults should have the same rights and responsibilities unless those rights are legally stripped of them on an individual basis in a court of law.
In my opinion the “18 year old is an adult” policy should be extended to the purchase and consumption of alcohol too. Either 18 year old’s are considered adults in ALL aspects of our society or they aren’t an adult for any aspects of our society. The double standards being applied to those between the age of 18 and 21 are borderline constitutionality. I would have absolutely no problem with ALL the laws changing and making the age of an adult anywhere between 16 and 21 but it must be 100% across the board for all aspects of our society and that would including voting rights.
I would be in favor of an amendment to the United States Constitution that permanently defines the age that a person is an adult across the board and protects their rights as such. That said; after being around people of all ages for many years, I personally would choose 20 years old as the age a person becomes an adult.
Now, choose wisely.
