Wisconsin is racist as a state mainly. That's why. I grew up there, I didn't believe it until I moved to cali, to Va....I don't get it. sorry to hear you've had issues there. Im a white female but I saw things like this all the time before I moved out. Its the most segregated city in america milwaukee co.
sigh...

Wisconsin isn't the only state with racial issues either. I live in Georgia and there are a few problems down here too. Florida has had many problems, particularly in Miami. Wisconsin isn't the only state with problems like this. I just don't hear about them in GA.

I remember that one, that was pretty crazy. Stupid, why are people like that?

I went to Milwaukee 2 years and I didn't experience any racism there, but then i was in
the downtown area near the lake front and shopping mail.

This shows you the massive segregation in Wisconsin as a whole.

Angry west bend american or not?

why can't be in america at least one place where could live just white people! if i and my friends don't understand foreign cultures where should we stay? at all earlier times america was white and it's a good reason that we still have any place to feel self comfortable. if you're mexican why don't you live in mexico or please take our habits. The same concerns the blacks. Hope there's more places to stay white. West Bend is cool.
