Well this is interesting. I wrote to the town of Wasau, WI to congratulate them on some fantastically bad behaviour. They wrote back, directing me to Mayor Jim Tipple’s statement on the subject.
No, go look..I’ll wait a moment.
So, to the town of Wasau, I apologize. I do hope you turn the screws on the Associated Press. I also hope the AP realizes that cutting their fact checking department might have been a poor choice in the last round of budget cuts.
Here’s the updated article on the whole sad affair.
Now, about turning the vitriole towards Crivitz, WI. They’re going to get the same sort of back handed congratulatory email that Wasau received, but there’s actually something here that saddens me more. Crivitz, a place where personal freedoms are stomped on by the local police, and theft is practiced by the same, has a better town web site than my town. Honestly, Auburn’s site is attrocious. What’s up with that spastic eyeball image?
But…we have a police department that knows right from wrong.
