Weird, Youtube inserted a lovable tykes doing arts projects clip to make me think this was tongue-in-cheek; looks not. But in an age of video surveillance and other analytics, how long can daytime marauding persist?
Anyway, Wisconsin break:

Bait-and-switch! Fake news! Tainted post!
Like Trump just made up an award from the non-existent African Union of Shithole Countries to name him Man of the Year (i guess drawing Sharpies over Time's cover didn't so too well - like holding back a hurricane of disapproval)

ugh I was a Badger for 7 1/2 yrs, but never saw a game (as one wag on twitter says,"gradiated the 19th grade"). But I got brothers who are also alumni and very loyal to the football brand so I am not allowed to express in real life hoiw stoopid I think college football patriotism is. At least it's not the Packers....

yeah I saw that as I follow the local Milwaukee paper on Twitter. Very strange. He was just arrested:
Maybe an "angel of death" type nut, or some other nefarious intent like an anti-vaxxer? We'll have to wait and see.
Also complicated by the fact that Aurora is a huge "non-profit" medical-industrial complex in Wisconsin, gobbles up hospitals and other medical institutions like candy, spurred on by insurance situation in this country, is starting to look like a monopoly. People wronged by Aurora incompetence (growing all the time) and cost cutting, are hit with the monster bureaucracy doing everything it can to protect itself and the high salaries of its managers, i.e., hire expensive nasty lying lawyers who force employees to lie like when a son sues because they let his mother bleed to death in the ICU. In one instance Aurora decided that one remote person working video screens out of an office miles away could substitute for ICU nurses overnight. The son of the subsequently dead mother happened to be in the movie making biz in California, decided to make a whistle blower type documentary about everything he went through, including the court case. One of the premium channels like HBO or Showtime ran it where I caught it. It did not paint a pretty picture. Subsequently when my GenX brother caring for my 90-something father went with Aurora's in-home hospice care because he didn't have the time nor strength to "shop around" for an alternative, he was very sorry. Now he's a full-blown convert to the growing chant in Wisconsin of "Aurora sucks!" They don't care about having happy customers, you see...."non-profit" is not always a golden word in health care...
So related to this case in particular: you cannot trust what Aurora says about what happened.

Ah good, a better mystery.
Is this crusader vs. the evil corporate giant,
or whacko spoils vaccines, or some other combo?

It was inevitable. If you don't address crime when it begins it will spread. First it was the criminal motorcycle gangs and now these bicyclists. Look at this gang of cyclists. Horrifying!

If you are on a bike and attacking a car....
Why would you slam your own bike on the hood of a car?
The car will win the battle
Are you planning on walking home?
