I pit racism in Milwaukee and Mr. Eugene Kane for empowering it.

Back in 1990 or so I remember my girlfriend’s father (who was more than a little racist) wouldn’t allow his wife to go to Mayfair alone.

McGee is still alive and causing problems? Does he still dress like Castro?

Okay, I laughed after reading that since I remember getting a similar speech a bit over a decade later. I agree that those of you who are speaking about expectations have touched on an important part of the problem. I have my suspicions on what some of the other parts of the problem are.

Heh-heh-heh.

And I think I share your suspicions re the other parts of the problem. I can’t speak upon them right now, though, 'cause I’m trying to make my shopping list so that I can shlep to the market before the day gets further away from me, so maybe I’ll just leave that ball in **your ** court for now.

I just moved back down here and I’m already familiar with Kane’s pieces. He makes Clarence Pitt look like a right-wimg radical.

Shoot, and I thought my folks’ complaining about the troubles at Mayfair Theater were just old peoples’ talk. And they still go to church on 35th and Garfield.

Has it really gotten that bad?

Please pardon my ignorance if this is something that I should already know (if the dude is familiar to people outside of Milwaukee/WI, that is), but who’s Clarence Pitt, and what is it about him that should make him look right-wing rad in comparison to Kane?

Yes, there was another incident Saturday night around 9 pm in which three more kids were arrested after the movies let out. :dubious:

Now it’s his son. He’s filling his father’s shoes splendidly.

And the meme he’s pushing is still “whitey deserves whatever we give him”?

I don’t think it’s worse then 35th and Garfield, it’s certainly not as bad as Northridge, but depending on the movie it has gotten pretty ugly.

Here’s the link I was looking for. This was from a few years ago. A huge fight broke out, for no reason, and then it got worse becuase they theater had sold out. I mean, c’mon, really, how stupid.
