Note To WI Capitol Police: The Whole World Is Watching
Walker's cops in action as a group, against a bystander. This is a civil liberties emergency, and it is escalating. Where is the US Justice Department?
And the message is being sent up north, too:
I've been rereading John Dean's Conservatives Without Conscience - - his spot-on book about the right's growing authoritarianism - - and almost on cue, GTAC mining today adds a hostile letter about site access for a water expert to a public face already distorted by images of assault-rifle toting guards. (Video here).
Hard to know if GTAC is inspired by the arrests at the State Capitol, or if the Walker administration is emboldened by GTAC.

well, come on Jim. he had DREADLOCKS.
The AP and Wisconsin NBC affiliates merely repeat the words fed to them the Walker DOA: "officers told the men to leave the area on Monday . . . both refused and actively resisted during arrest." Too bad the reports didn't include video of the arrests so people could see for themselves that the brown shirts (I mean police)went way over the top (again). The footage is chilling.
James, you really must have the blinders on. The Justice Dept? is busy giving guns to Mexican narco terrorist so that they can kill Justice Dept. agents, busy illegally monitoring journalists who write stories leaked to them by Obungle Admin sources, and desciding to not prosecute drug crimes. Where have you been since Jan 2009?
The Justice Department has a civil rights division.

All of those things were happening prior to 2009.
Nothing wrong with having a satisfying fantasy life, Ron, but such effervescent paranoia is a sign that you're a little out of round.
Also, what James said. I mean, except for scary guys with dreadlocks, who obviously deserved the beatdown for having Scary Hair.
Madison's NBC affiliate showed the pics of the guy backing away and being tackled at 10pm. You can't spin that shot away- it looks like a QB being blitzed by linebackers.
