A mob of teenage thugs, made up mostly of minorities, caused mayhem at the Wisconsin State Fair over the weekend terrorizing families. The mob also brutally attacked police officers. Watch video of the violence below and click here to get my daily breaking news alerts delivered to your inbox.

“Absolute insanity at the Wisconsin State Fair. MULTIPLE police officers were badly beaten, as families with kids were seen RUNNING FOR THEIR LIVES as teens began brawling,” one eyewitness wrote on Facebook. “Pretty sure these weren’t the 4H kids from Portage County.”

Video shows at least one police officer being punched in the face and television station WISN reports that multiple officers were assaulted.

Dispatch audio indicated chaotic moments near the rides.

“They need some help at Spin City. Send anybody extra you have,” one police officer could be heard saying.

There’s no word on if anyone was arrested.

The Illinois State Fair had a midway park area as well. I don’t know if they still do. There seems to be fewer traveling amusement parks than there used to. Perhaps they couldn’t keep up with Six Flags etc. You wonder if it attracts the wrong crowd it might be better to drop.

Imagine being a farm boy surrounded by that trash culture at the one big event of the year? Those kids camp out in the pen with their animals. I like our little county fair to go see the animals in the pens. I don’t need to see feral beasts ransacking the place.

Here's the embedded X post that has the vid ... if you're in any doubt ..

Imagine you live in Wisconsin, and you want to take your family to the state fair to have a good time, but once again you can't, because it's ruined by violent ferals AGAIN.

I'm sick of it. We shouldn't have to live like this, EVER. pic.twitter.com/OEtZqZm7ox— Phoenix 🇺🇸 (@Phoenix2A_1980s) August 17, 2026

It’s not all of them. It’s not always them.

But it’s them ‘WAY out of proportion to their fraction of the population. Their culture of ignorance, arrogance, violence, entitlement, thievery, and utter lack of self-control needs to be eliminated.

I live in a mixed Black-Jewish neighborhood. The ahem, “teens” have been going around this summer harassing the Jewish store owners.

The sight of those photos would cause the same reaction with today’s Leftnicks as the crucifix did with Dracula.
