Where were you Mr Witlowiak?
http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/47533542.html
Where were you
Alderman Witkowiak ?
When two officers were shot yesterday in front of two gay bars on the south side. And don't tell me you were too busy to come down here along with the chief of police the mayor in the district attorney. Why is it so hard to show up in person rather than issuing a written statement which to us means nothing other than the fact that you don't care about what happens in this neighborhood.
Why isn't Mr. Witkowiak out there asking the common Council for additional resources for the addition of funds in his district which is impacted by an excessive amount of violence? In my opinion you are not doing the job you are elected to do and if it were up to me you would never be elected again. So let's stop sitting on our butts and get going and do something about what's happening. I talked to a person in your office who said that this was only an isolated incident and not to worry about it. What kind of response is that? It's obvious to me that you and the people your office don't care about what's going on in your district, and you should. Shame on you Mr. Witkowiak and shame on the people in your office and especially you at this important time for not showing up in person.
Please answer one more last question. Why does this chief of police and the mayor of Milwaukee have to be the ones that are doing the job that you should be doing? After all you're supposed to be a spokesman for this district.

Announcing pridefest celebration of our commitments
Things are changing at pridefest this year. Gone is the mass marriage ceremony instead in its place is a ceremony honoring our relationships. As we all are aware constitutional amendments were made several years ago preventing us from celebrating the institutional churches monopoly on marriage. And although we have made strides in various states throughout the union that are now recognizing gay marriage but we still have a long way to go. I personally don't believe in the institution of marriage, it is antiquated, it is restrictive and no longer relevant. Way back when I was on the board of Action Wisconsin I said that if we wanted marriage we must first get Domestic Partnerships and once we get our foot in the door then and only then do we go after the institution of marriage, because by then we will have gotten 99% of the benefits that marriage offers. We must also remember that marriage or the institution thereof is between ourselves and God and not between us and the government. Apparently most of us have forgotten that or ignored it at the worst. I know that many of you will disagree with my sentiments but unfortunately it is the truth.
I am extremely happy to present to you here Pridefests new celebration of our commitment which will be presented by the Universal Angelican Church presided by the Right Rev. Bishop Craig Berglund. I have included the YouTube announcement for your edification.
