Wisconsin's Shame

Wisconsin's Shame - this is atrocious. The United States is supposed to be a country that protects human rights and freedoms. My thoughts on this:

1) This is what happens when people in a position of power are completely sure of their own moral superiority and also completely sure that people on the other side of the political aisle must be no good or evil

2) This is a problem of the increasing militarization of the police in our country

3) It is ironic as usually the Left is very critical of the police state

4) If this had been a Republican prosecutor going after Democratic party people, this would probably be national news being covered by all the major media networks along with an investigation by the Justice Department with an army of federal agents descending into Wisconsin to investigate

5) This is but another example of the violence and intimidation unions oftentimes lead to. Unions are notorious historically for attempting intimidation, and here we see intimidation by people sided with the unions.

Here is an additional article and an excellent blog post on the issue as well:
