Now Harrisburg's new mayor wants to clean house and make money. Linda Thompson is planning to sell thousands of western artifacts bought by her predecessor.


Thousands of western artifacts, sitting in storage for years, may soon be ready for auction. Guns, wagons, posters, pictures, and more items are scattered across the city inside a warehouse, a parking garage basement, and a water department building.

Paragraph about the some of the items;

"There are numerous problems," Ardo said. "Some of them appear not to be authentic. Some of them are deteriorating because they haven't been stored properly."

We know dozens of items are fakes among the thousands bought by then-Mayor Steve Reed for more than $8 million.

It seems the capital city may never recover all the money. Where it came from has raised eyebrows, yet Thompson doesn't plan to look into it.

Does anything look suspicious about that paragraph above?

Wow, maybe I should run for Mayor there and buy a bunch of fake stuff for the city from, (I ain't telling who I am buying it from), for 5 million dollars, so I can PROBABLY POCKET 4 1/2 million! I mean after all, being they have no desire to investigate the previous possible fraud maybe they won't have a desire to investigate another one!!!!

Something smells and it doesn't smell like burning coal or rotten fish!!!

Not only that, Did Pennsylvania realy
need a Museum of the Wild West ?



How about Move all the
French & Indian
& Revolutionary War stuff
out of the Garages & Cellars
and put that on Display here.

Maybe California should start a
Museum on the New jersey Turn Pike,
or the Pot holes in Pennsylvania.
