Wisconsin could have been all the psychos... Like a Mt. Rushmore of Doom.

Ed Gein, Jeffrey Dahmer, Terry Ratzmann... This one would have fit in well.
Only Wisconsin? What does that mean exactly? Listen, your neverending insulting the state you don't even live in has gotten beyond old, ok?

I'm honest about Wisconsin... I have posted plenty of positive and negative things about it.

If you can't see the humor in the post, you need to switch to Decaf or something... Especially considering you jump on my back regarding anything and everything.

There have more than a few total psychos who have come from - or done their "work" - in Wisconsin. I'm not bashing the state... It's simple state history and all I'm saying is add another to the list.

But I guess you can live in denial of you want to.

As Aaron would say... R-E-L-A-X...

I jump on your back when you post incorrect or negative opinion pieces & you do it often. You no longer live in the state, worry about your own city/state.

I disagree, if he really wanted to insult Wisconsin he would have posted a bunch of links about their citizenry having sex with dead people, livestock and game

So posters aren't supposed to make positive or negative comments on issues regarding states they don't reside in?

The things you learn on these boards!

FYI- The word "thug" comes from the "thugee" cult in India.

The word "mugged" also comes from that era where british soldiers would be "mugged" which essentially meant robbed and the body thrown to the mugger crocodiles to dispose of the evidence.

So, the word thug generally applies to an individual that participates in violent robberies so stop trying to change a words meaning because you don't like it.

The word that would apply to these girls would be psychos as they did not rob their victim and their motivation was crazy...but they knew what they were doing was wrong, planned it etc. so they themselves were not truly insane.

Lastly, to anyone crying that the word "thug" is racist....look closely at the torso of Mr. Shakur.
File:Tupac Shakur (rapper), performing live.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Never heard of "thug life" huh? smh.....

Not when that person continually goes on the Wisconsin/Milwaukee forum. I'm sure you would take offense as well if someone routinely insulted the state you live in when that person does not live in the state.

True, I've done that in exchanging jabs with Wisconsin people as I grew up in Illinois and you KNOW they don't go easy on IL (not that they should).

Heck, let me put it this way....when you actually have a word like FIB (an acronym to be precise) that is in the vernacular of Wisconsin residents you probably need to be thicker skinned when it's your turn to get skewered.

Heck, I live in KS now and if you think getting picked on for living in WI or IL is bad.....we are constantly targeted by morons grinding political knives on us, generally over half-truths etc.

Bahaha... For real. I hit the quote button when dude posted that... It was such a ridiculous comment, I stared at my reply box and didn't even know where to start.

That's how he is with pretty much everything... If you don't see eye to eye, you are horrible, know nothing of the subject in discussion and should be banned from posting about said subject.

Uhm yeah, I lived there for 28 years up until (not even) two years ago... I think I have a right to be on the Wisconsin / Milwaukee forum... Didn't know I needed permission, either... And not everything I post is negative... Far from it. I speak high of Milwaukee's suburbs, living in Appleton and Wisconsin's enthusiasm for sports quite often. Guess you just got your head so far up your a.... I mean, I guess you just don't see it when I post it.
