Union Thuggery: Playing Hardball in Wisconsin

Union Thuggery: Playing Hardball in Wisconsin « Intellectual Conservative Politics and Philosophy "On Madison's State Street, the frenzy is reflected in this exchange, recorded practically word-for-word by a retired Army officer, overhead at the Expresso Royale Cafe. One white male is talking animatedly to another. They are about 50 years old, believed by the observer to be university (public) employees on lunch break: Man 1: 'Governor Scott Walker must be stopped, he's a NAZI.' Man 2: 'That might be a strong comparison.' #1: 'No, he must be stopped. They are calling our protesters union thugs. Walker will destroy democracy and freedom.' #2: 'What should we do?' #1: 'I hope he's shot. But we should take them out of government to save the future. We will have to save the people from Republicans. Our small group will have to change the makeup of the government.' #2: 'Isn't that why we have elections?' #1: 'Elections have obviously failed. We need to have democracy by other means. We can save the people by getting rid of the Republicans. We know best what to do for the future . . .'"
