Call to Citizen Media! Michael Moore Calls Out the Mobs In Wisconsin, Bring Your Cameras to Capture Any Thuggery

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

You lose, Michael Moore.

And so does Big Labor.

But this righteous cause still needs YOUR help. Things are likely to get as ugly in Wisconsin as they have ever been and we all know the media will ignore this ugliness just as they have before. We need Citizen Media to do what they do best: the job the media won’t.

First, a little background…

As the big fat public unions directed all their resources into Wisconsin and at The Mighty Governor Scott Walker, Republican Governors elsewhere took full advantage of that diversion and fought the war to finally put a stake in the heart of these wicked and greedy Public Unions in as many as 10 states. But today, with the backing of their governor, 19 brave Wisconsin Republican State Senators finally voted to put an end to a standoff created when 14 cowardly Democrat (what else?) State Senators fled the state to deny the legislature the quorum necessary to past a fiscal bill — a bill that diminished budget-busting collective bargaining rights for public unions.

Between NPR and this, the Institutional Left has had a not so good, very bad day. Which means that over the next couple of days they will do what they always do: get ugly. And as you can see from the above Tweet, radical socialist millionaire Michael Moore is calling on his mindless minions to mob Madison, Wisconsin over the next couple of days when the Assembly will vote on final passage, which is assured with a Republican majority.

As an important side note, this is also a major victory for workers rights. After this bill passes, public workers will no longer be forced into unions and forced to pay union dues that go to politicians and causes they might disagree with. Does it get any more un-American than that?

More over-the-top language from Moore…

And so if you live anywhere near Madison, Wisconsin, and have access to a video camera of any kind, we urge you to head out there and document any and all violence and anything else that violates the standards created by the media and the Left for the Tea Party.

Hopefully, the upcoming Madison rallies will be as peaceful as our Tea Party gatherings, but thus far they haven’t been. They’ve been filled with behavior the media would’ve crucified the Tea Party for.

With his hysterical Tweet, Michael Moore is now encouraging more of it, the mainstream media will ignore it, and Citizen Media must document it.

Stay safe and use the feedback prompt on our sidebar to let us know if you have anything.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

Hilarious. More scapegoating. Will we next see an all-out attack on Moore's millions or just on his huge body frame?

I'd be afraid of him if he were hungry and sitting close to me at a banquet.

Still doesn't take away from what he is actually saying.

Yes, but when was this so-called "union protest"? Where?...they are talking about "busing people in" but I doubt they are being bused in from the same protest in Sacramento from god news when - why don't they tell us when/where/what the footage is from instead of "union protest"?

It's dishonest and you know it and Fox News knows it but it achieves a perception of "thuggery" where it doesn't exist according to the Madison Police Department, so it's all okay. (except if NPR was caught out doing the same in a tea party protest, then it is not)

Is that the best you got?

So where is your evidence of thuggery then? You know, in Wisconsin.......

Protests more aggressive than usual; police barriers broken down

Ralliers pour into Capitol building en masse after hearing of Senate’s vote

After learning the state Senate passed the collective bargaining portion of the budget repair bill without the 14 missing Democrats, the Capitol erupted Wednesday evening as protesters flooded the closed building against a court order.

The hearings where the Senate passed the bill lasted less than a half hour, prompting the building to officially close around 6:30 p.m. Protesters outside chanted in frustration, “Let us in.”

After about an hour and a half, protesters stormed the building’s entrances, forcing themselves past police blockades.

Protesters who remained in the building past the hearing’s conclusion ran the risk of being arrested for disorderly conduct because of a March 3 court order that declared people could not occupy the Capitol after hours.

Capitol police said they were in “crisis mode” Wednesday evening because the building had been “taken over” by protesters. About 1,000 people were inside the building and 6,000 joined them after rushing previously locked doors, according to a statement from the Department of Administration.

Police were concerned about protesters’ physical safety with overcrowding, especially on the Capitol’s second floor bridges, the statement said.

DOA spokesperson Tim Donovan said law enforcement officers attempted to prevent forced entry from happening but were unable to because of the large volume of people.

“We’re disappointed that people who have been very cooperative over the past three weeks were not cooperative tonight and entered the building against the court order,” Donovan said.

Madison resident John Severa held a State Street entrance door open for an hour and said people inside the building rushed to the entrance to push the doors open for protesters outside.

Police responded shortly after to try to barricade the door, but their attempts were unsuccessful. After several minutes, police retreated while protesters cheered.

“I know police don’t want to be violent,” Madison resident Josh Olson said. “But tonight [the police were violent], and it was upsetting and disturbing.”

Olson said the decision to open the doors had very little coordination. He also claimed he was punched in the shoulder by an officer aggressively trying to stop the rush of people.

“Once people started coming in there was nothing police could do,” Olson said. “This is our house.”

Donovan said protesters also entered the building by jumping through windows. He said he was unsure if windows were broken because of conflicting information from several credible sources.

Police decided against forcibly removing protesters and kept the building open past hours Wednesday night to focus all of their efforts on keeping everyone safe, Donovan said.

Madison Police Department Sergeant Dave McClurg, who was protesting while off duty, said he was concerned with the dangers of security procedures during the Senate’s hearing. State law requires the Capitol to remain open after its designated hours during any public meetings.

Protesters began arriving en masse outside the building’s only open entrance near King Street about a half hour before the 6 p.m. Senate hearing. The hearing was only publicly announced at 4:09 p.m.

Because police began airport-like security procedures outfitted with a standing metal detector, the crowd grew as protesters were forced to enter the building one-by-one. McClurg said he was concerned with the dangers to everyone involved because the building’s only entrance at the time was severely overcrowded.

“If someone gets hurt tonight because of the security set up, I would testify for them,” McClurg said.

He said at some point police could have removed the metal detector and asked to wand a few people independently for any weapons. He added officers should have asked their supervisors to alter the security measure out of safety concerns.

Mayor Dave Cieslewicz said the mayoral debate was canceled Wednesday night in light of the rally. He said he attended the rally because he wanted to make sure people remained peaceful.

“They’re angry and they should be, but let’s show our anger in a tasteful way,” Cieslewicz said.
