If you're moved by my new post, I urge you to contact the Dane County board of supervisors and Executive Joel Parisi. http://www.supportmadisonpolice.com/why-wont-the-dane-county-board-disavow-cop-haters/ I'll say the following as gently as possible: It can’t just be David Blaska, Steve, a few residents, and I consistently speaking out. If more don’t start speaking out, our elected officials will think their behavior is acceptable. And it isn’t. Full disclosure: Dane County government is progressive liberal. I'm a former (moderate) Democrat-turned-Independent. --Paula Fitzsimmons
