| Milwaukee Clean Your Own Mess Up First
»www.themilwaukeechannel.com/educ···ail.html
This city cannot even keep its own tax system up to date nor can it fund its schools correctly. How dare it wastes even more money that it does not have on a frivolous lawsuit.

| Point is every town has issues, so bringing in issues of the town right or wrong means what? Means nothing at all.

The city attorney gets paid wether he is suing or just kicking back at his office.
and other posters are right. You don't live in Milwaukee and not only that you are comparing apples to oranges. It was a clerical error! A big one, but one none the less. What does that have to do with the telco breaking rules?

| said by MrMaster :You don't live in Milwaukee and not only that you are comparing apples to oranges. So then why even have this discussion? What if the owners of BBR don't live in Milwaukee? That means they should not have even posted this article at all, since after all, they don't know what really goes on there.
And given how this city seems hell bent on stopping progress by getting in AT&T's way, maybe I should be glad I don't live there!

You don't have to live in Washington DC to know the city is a mess. I don't have to be a murders to sit on a Jury and be in judgement of one.
The fact that pnh doesn't like in Milwaukee doesn't disqualify his statements.
It would serve your point better to challenge his statements than his location. |

Do you live here? If not, then maybe you ought not talk like you do. Milwaukee has its faults, but funding for the schools is a STATE issue, not a city one. Much like Detroit, the loss of manufacturing in this community (especially to Mexico) has had a huge impact on its tax base.
As for the frivolity of this lawsuit, how is holding a corporation liable for illegal actions frivolous? And let's be realistic, it will have zero impact on prices. Has DTv had an impact- no. Neither has Dish. Adding another player to this game will make little to no difference in prices. |

The local paper, like many these days is a bully pulpit for corporate interests. They are as biased as Fox. |

He didn't make a comment about the validity of the suit, he insulted our hometown. You can criticize you family, but if someone else does, it may come to blows. The poster has no basis to cast dispersions. |

I personally think everyone should call BS when they see it. It might make those doing the BS less likely to do it.
