Around the Corner with John McGivern | Program | West Allis (#310)
[Latest Airdate: July 13, 2017]
[Original Airdate: March 20, 2014]
Everyone knows that State Fair, the Milwaukee Mile, the Pettit Center, and Candy Cane Lane are in West Allis. But have you taken the time recently to experience them? We were delighted. And everyone remembers that Allis Chalmers was here. But have you been back lately to see the redevelopment and renovation? We were amazed. When we poked around Quadgraphics and the West Allis Historical Society, we were enlightened (in different ways), and at Rupenas and Antigua we were blissfully stuffed! And you may have shopped at Record Head or the famous West Allis Farmers Market, but have you given in to your addiction at Onionmania? (Best name ever for a store, by the way!).
We didn't head into West Allis in search of the landmarks, but we found the first three in about 10 minutes! Then we spent five of the fastest, most jam-packed days ever -- and we loved every minute!

Brew City Shooters Supply; West Allis [Milwaukee, Wi]
Suggest that you DO NOT patronize Brew City Shooters Supply [alias: Badger Guns] in Milwaukee/West Allis, Wi. to use their firing range OR buy a gun.
Even if you don't buy a gun there, just using their firing range, they will report your personal info [name, address and, more than likely, gun make & model] to the W. Milwaukee Police Dept. which enters that info into their data base which remains there FOREVER!
Even if you're not guilty of anything, ALL shooters are reported and therefore on record locally to all law enforcement.
Police Chief Nasci said since late 2009 he has run more than 25000 names of range users through his system. So far this year he's ran more than 8800 and come up with 47 people who required further investigation. A few of those were referred to prosecutors for illegal possession, Nasci said.
They have been stabbing their customers in the back for four years!
As reported by the Milwaukee Journal on 27 July 2012
AND:
They have lost their license more than once due to selling guns to straw buyers.
Mike of that business posted some lame weasel-word excuse as to why he invades your privacy by reporting your personal info to the W. Milwaukee PD, in essence saying, It is our right..etc, etc, etc..
To add insult to injury, they now charge $25.00 for a Membership as a requirement before you can even buy a gun!
THEREFORE:
You are paying additional $25.00 MORE than the retail price for the gun that you buy!?
BTW; the IMMEDIATELY delete any negative comments on their site on a daily basis AND block that person from all further comments instead of posting a rational response.. What pansies!
------------------------------------------ Update --------------------------------
Mike of Brew City Shooters Supply recently posted a statement on Facebook that they would no longer report customer's personal info to the W. Milwaukee Police Dept [those using the firing range]. How do we know this is the truth?!
Too little too late! What about the thousands & thousands of customer's info STILL residing on the PD's data base?!
p.s.
Mike; it really sleezy that you post a picture of yourself in uniform of when you USED to be in the military.
You are now milking your past enlistment to ingratiate yourself to customers to make more money? Really low class.
West Allis hotel stay leads to Wauwatosa home invasion
A West Allis hotel employee's knowledge about a family who'd recently moved to the United States from Saudi Arabia with a large sum of money led to the family being surveilled and a brutal home invasion in which five people, including a 5-year-old child, were bound, gagged and beaten, prosecutors said in a criminal complaint.
