Just got an email back from her:
Thanks for the publicity. I take my responsibilities to protect the integrity and atmosphere of my city very seriously and am painfully aware that the majority of conflict between people happens when others are not respectful of commonly accepted norms. We do not pack pistols in restaurants in Madison. Why not? Simply not necessary or appropriate. It’s too bad that some people feel that exercising their rights to make a point has to be such an issue. Frankly, visits that cause these kinds of disturbances aren’t economic stimuli for our city. That poor restaurant probably lost sales due to the show. As you note, you are not a Madison resident, thus don’t know the flavor of our community. This could be the best campaign incident in a long time!
I appreciate your tongue-in-cheek candor, too.

“Just got an email back from her:”
Yep - she fessed up to it and is proud of her statement - Thanks for posting.
Paging Charlie Sykes & Vicki McKenna!!
In other words, I (Lauren Cnare) as a Madison resident get to be perpetually offended because I was born with this stick up my butt that got me into the position I’m in as your overlord.
Alder - WTH?!!! Do these people know how to do anything other than insist you follow their ways or call you evil if you don’t?
The party of peace love and tolerance folks....
