Now you can be violently arrested for taking pictures of protests.

Was someone singing a protest song?

Hhmmmm do you think ( and this is a terrible thought for a dairy state ) that those capitol police are lactose intolerant? Could go towards explaining the excessive show of hostility and force ( they were irritated by exposure to dairy already and just snapped ? ). Like instead of a roid rage they had a cheese rage?

Haha! Probably. I wonder if their badge numbers got recorded and distributed. With fame comes a large following (of lovers or haters).

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Lovers of haters? That's just sad. Haters of lovers? That's just wrong.

They're both at once. Or cowards.

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

They're both at once. Or cowards.

That's interesting both or cowards. Since you didn't say and the story is about cops over reacting. I am assuming you mean the cops.

Now it is interesting that you would say both or cowards. As a coward when pushed into a situation that is highly charged is gonna flood their system with adrenalin, also being a coward one tends to imagine the worst happening to them self and if forced to act physically and they can't run - well they can get very ugly and out of control. Needless to say this makes for a poor career choice to be a police officer.

Now the other one - hating and loving at the same time - now there is another real dilemma. As the person is torn and then how is the hate and or the love felt and how are they directed. Needless to say - this can be a whole lot more complex then just figuring simple cowardice ( that also may be an unfair statement - cowardice as being simple ). Anyway I think there are nearly daily instances when a good cop may experience that love hate reaction during the normal course of a day - perhaps several times a day fairly often. That feeling of being torn can be pretty maddening.

Anyway interesting comment.

OH and there may also be the 3rd combination - all three at the same time.

"Wisconsin police officer Tom Alisankus is speaking out against Gov. Walker’s unconstitutional crackdown on protesters.

Alisankus told The Progressive:

I’m really angered at my brethren police officers who are arresting people who pose no threat to public safety,” said Tom Alisankus, a police officer in a small town in Wisconsin. “They swore to uphold the Constitution, and by arresting people here they are being more beholden to Scott Walker than to the Constitution, which is very distasteful for me as an officer of 31 years. … I’m trying to get my head around why this is a priority for law enforcement,” he said. “There are so many accidents on I-90. So why are the state troopers arresting 80-year-olds? That’s crazy for me as a cop. I’m trying to decide whether they just want to keep their jobs, or whether they believe in what they’re doing."

Hedges made an interesting point a while ago, saying that theres no way the cops are going to go with the state when push comes to shove, because they arent making much these days either, and obviously are being abused.

He then stated thats why things like NDAA needed to be passed, because they know this.

We protested at city hall about proposed firefighter cuts, they really appreciated it. The police know their pensions are next, and I think thats when we are going to see them finally say fuck it, Im not just "following orders" anymore.

You are very obsessed with his site though. No shit Scott is corrupt.

Is this news to you? Because everyone here figured it out a long time ago.

I think you are just in another obnoxious mood looking for people to argue with and make a few bucks. Make sure you call me a teabagger or whatever, theres money in those keywords.

[-] 0 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

That must be why you never mention it.. Never really say a word. Preferring to paste it on every other State in the union. while you insult me for pointing out what's happening in Michigan.

Which you also duly ignore, or paste some bullshit on.

I do tire of your insults and lies though.

Please provide proof that I called you a teabagge(R).

Or admit that you lied about it for some nefarious purpose.

[-] 0 points by TropicalDepression (-45) 11 years ago

teabagge(R) (R)epublican Libe(R)tarian

You;ve got a truck load of little pet names for all sorts of things.

While you are obviously speaking from experience being a former libertarian and worshiping which ever one of the Koch brothers was running for VP, you really get to repeat things.

Your silence on off shoring, war, killing, Gitmo, more killing, more offshoring, GMOs, and yes, more war.....they are quite telling.

I guess if its not happening in your own backyard its not important.

Still waiting for one single denouncement of a Democrat by name. That would go a long way towards showing you arent some partisan hack getting paid to post.

Edit: a commment on that ALEC board and their donations would be nice, seems how you are the local ALEC expert.

Why do I have such a hard time seeing you protesting and sleeping next to anarchists and libertarians to address the corporate greed that is taking over our country?

[-] 0 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

Responding here.

I think you should insult people and change the subject, whenever possible.

After all, that's been your MO since you got here.

Also

Under NO circumstance should you concentrate on what's happening in the States.

Pretend it doesn't matter.

That's your other MO.

Be sure to NEVER back up your accusations, and under no circumstances prove what you say.

And never, and I do mean NEVER answer an honest question, with an honest answer.

In fact,,,,cry like a baby about the questions asked, if you address them at all.

Now....back to your regularly scheduled insults

Ummm I have heard that it can be easy to get Miley's ( easy-s ) presence cooperation ( even sex ) - one way is to suggest she get someone to leak pictures of her having sex with an old guy in a bar or something ( and here is wild Miley out on the town again and being - BAD - I believe that she was promoting a new album at the time - "Why Not" - a bold statement about I can do whatever I want and noone can tell me different ). Sad but true - did her parents allow her life to get fucked-up or what?

Let the suing begin.

"The War for Wisconsin continues.

In one of the latest Battles for the Badger State, Brendan Fischer of the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) filed a broad-based ethics complaint [PDF] with the Wisconsin Government Accountability Board (G.A.B) charging that 43 Republican state legislators are in violation of both the state's ethics and lobbying laws. The named respondents in the March 23 complaint include three Republican Senators, Scott L. Fitzgerald, Van H. Wanggard and Terry Moulton, who are now facing recall elections."

So you got your coat hangers hangin' from your windows, right? Did you string four hangers per pane? Radio and ultraviolet waves, yeah, yeah. Any attempt whatsoever to control your mind from beyond your windows, those hangers are going to neutralize. Right. What about the aluminum foil; did you cover your ceiling? Well, then, you're in business. You've got yourself an alien-thought-proof room there, right. Look, one other thing effective with these control rays is, uh, refuse to think about 'em, yeah.
