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]

I did - tell me what you see in that video?

Lots of "peaceful" folks overwhelming law enforcement, forcing their way past them, and then resisting when they were asked to leave.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

So you saw "thuggery" from a little pushing (both sides pushed from what I could tell, though it's interesting you can draw any conclusions when most of the footage is blurry. Though I can understand that video would have made you excited when so far there have been fewer arrests than a Badger football game (according to the Madison police, not NPR), which hasn't exactly fit your narrative of "thuggery" and "violence"

When the man shows up, the only appropriate response on part of regular workers is to fall on their knees and kiss their rings. Anything less is thuggery.

Oh man... what hackery.

[SMOKE 1,426]

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)

it was a in cali on the same day of the video clip. shouldn't the palm trees be a gimme that it wasn't in wisconsin?

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

Where does it say it was the same day?

And why show it at all if it's not coverage of Wisconsin, which is the only story they were covering at that time? I don't think anyone was "bused in" for a weekend protest from Sacramento, which is what they were discussing when they showed the clip.

[Zero Sum 305]

Yet more reasons NOT to be a regular FOX News viewer. But have at it if that's your cup of Joe.

How about just following the lawful orders of law enforcement, and not trashing state property? What a bunch of crybabies!

Union Thugs Target Private Businesses, Restaurants

A number of business across Wisconsin said they have been targeted by pro-union forces who are upset over their support of Republican Governor Scott Walker.

The pro-union protesters are urging people to boycott companies like Sargento Cheese and Johnsonville Sausage — the bratwurst people.

Thousands of people have joined a Facebook page listing businesses they consider either pro-Republican or pro-Governor Walker.

According to a report in the Wisconsin State Journal, the state’s restaurant association pulled its dining guide of its website over fears union supporters would harass members.

I love the way a story about Moore and WI turns into a Fox bashing thread. The fear of Fox is palpable from the left.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

So you are "thug" if you decide not to do business with a company that supports something you disagree with?

The word thug gets new meanings all the time!

Fell free to redefine thuggery however you want. The left is good at misdirection and diversion.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

I'm not but you seem determined to use the words "thugs" or "thuggery" for anything you happen to disagree with whether or not it's true.

The words "union" and "thugs" just seem to go together.

Not really. I watch it sometimes. Don't be so 'defensive.'

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

for you they do - too bad your evidence in Wisconsin is so weak to allow it.

I know that old lady with the tambourine looked like she might kick off at any time but I think she is free to buy her brats wherever she likes.
