WTF (West Bend, Wisconsin, Edition)

Four members of a library board in West Bend, Wis., were dismissed last week for refusing to remove controversial books from the library's young adult section.

Three guesses what "controversial" means in this context.

For some reason I know a bunch of people from West Bend. None of them live there anymore. I WONDER WHY.

Privilege; they are bathing in it, therefore they don't see it.

I want those dismissed library board members to sue. but I will settle for a shitstorm of phone calls and letters and radio shows making fun of West Bend. Is there a phone # I can call?
