Race War At Wisconsin State Fair
Ricky Kreitner | Aug. 5, 2011, 10:25 AM
According to witnesses, a group of anywhere from 30 to 100 young black men descended on the Wisconsin State Fair last night, beating fairgoers and looting carnival games, in what witnesses said were racially-motivated attacks, Milwaukee's WTMJ reports.
One witness named Eric, an Iraq veteran, said the attacks reminded him of war:
"I had a black couple on my right side, and these black kids were running in between all the cars, and they were pounding on my doors and trying to open up doors on my car, and they didn't do one thing to this black couple that was in this car next to us. They just kept walking right past their car. They were looking in everybody's windshield as they were running by, seeing who was white and who was black. Guarantee it."
Another witness, Norb Roberts, corroborated that: "We were just like cattle being herded out of the park, and they were picking and choosing who they wanted to beat on," he said.
Officials have not yet given an estimate of how many attackers were involved or how many fairgoers were injured.
Police and fair security officials were present at the time of the attacks, but not in sufficient numbers to stop the mob. Also, the Wisconsin State Fair Park Police only have jurisdiction within the fairgrounds, complicating efforts to bring the situation under control.

You know what you call the group that doesn’t know it’s in a war, don’t ya?
The losers.
All the reports, everyone of them, now a days has black people beating up on white people. I feel a bad under-current going on here, that if not checked, will give rise to extremism.
There are many good black people out there. No reason to say this other than, the continuance and increase of incidents like this, if they are not loudly criticized by the black community, will ultimately hurt the entire black community.
They (black community) need to control and take charge of this under-current of flash-type racist beatings that we are now seeing. These racist actions need to be ‘called out’, because if it’s not gotten under control, it will lead to racist actions against black people in general by white extremists, and will give rise to actions that we are all going to regret.
This SHOULD NOT BE IGNORED, because there is something seriously wrong when multitude of large youths of one color think it’s ok to go out and beat on innocent unprovoked bystanders of another color.
This is not good!
Too bad, next year’s state fair should be more interesting.
You know what you call the group that doesnt know its in a war, dont ya?
Liberals....
Good thought Terry Mross,
The question is, IF you are attacked by a bunch of Amish kids, Brittish soccer Hooligans or a bunch of Milwaukee black yuth, do you have the option to shoot their sorry asses if you feel your life threatened?
Here in Florida we have the Castle law which gives you the right to self defense. And yes I most probaably would shoot and reload and shoot some more.
These racist actions need to be called out
I don’t think that will happen. Just as the Muslims in America do not condem radical Muslim terrorists.
It’s going to come down to how much you are willing to put up with. In my case, ZERO!
the trouble began when they supposedly had a rap act there....anywhere there is “rap” there’s violence...

“There are many good black people out there. No reason to say this other than, the continuance and increase of incidents like this, if they are not loudly criticized by the black community, will ultimately hurt the entire black community.”
Yea. Just like all the “good” Muslims criticize Muslim terrorists.....NOT
If a stupid rap act can cause this then there group intellegence level is through the floor!
Could it be that some of these incidents are attempted provocations that could be used by Obama/Holder to justify further crackdowns on firearms and civil rights? These young blacks are nothing but cannon fodder to Obama.

I agree, Obama could use these incidents to restrict guns. Note to self: Buy more guns and ammo.
I keep waiting for an event like this where a potential victim pulls a concealed weapon, and ices a handful of these brigands.
Has the question been posed that perhaps groups of CCW holders should intentionally go to these fairs/events for the interest of public safety? We used to call that militia.
This is what the feral mobs of youths are doing with the free Safelink wireless phones. They are using them to organize flash mobs to rob and start riots. It reduces the chance of them not having the larger gang. But remember as they say on the site the program is funded by the Telecom companies and not by taxes. I wonder where the Telecom companies get the money to give these all away.
Oddly enough, I disagree with most here about using a gun in such a situation. Having two long knives would be much, much more effective.
Holding the handles in such a way that the blades are concealed behind your forearms, a single person could pass through a moving mob quickly, leaving substantial and life-threatening gashes on many of those he passed by. Likewise, they could be used to effectively block any attacks while still seriously injuring the attackers.
Knives do not run out of bullets, no do they give off a loud report that serves as warning to others. Knife wounds are very serious, and are much more difficult to treat even with prompt medical care, resulting in a significantly higher mortality than do gunshots.
And knives generally do not harm innocent bystanders or those not targeted by the knife user.
Ghetto Spring...
This is a small riot compared to what is coming because these criminal are not shot on the spot. The law will never arrest and if they did all will get off. Justice is gone.
