“This is what thuggery looks like.”
They will stop at nothing… Far Left goons scaled the walls of the Wisconsin capitol yesterday and harassed officials sitting inside their offices. These idiots even filmed their harassment.
Wisconsin Republican Forced to Skip St. Patricks Day Parade Appearance Due to Death Threats
A Wisconsin Republican was told not to participate in this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Fond du Lac after receiving death threats this week. Police told the senator to sit this one out.

A parade with more than 50 entries will now be down two participants.
Fond du Lac police say the tension in Madison has spawned threats, they and lawmakers are acting on.
“We’ve taken them all seriously and we’re happy to say that none of them have panned out yet here in Fond du Lac, so we’re still vigilant,” Deputy Chief Kevin Lemke said.
State Senator Randy Hopper and State Representative Jeremy Thiesfeldt, both Republicans, have decided not to march in the city’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade on Saturday.
Hopper was among the Republican lawmakers who received death threats, in connection to the battle over collective bargaining and fixing a budget deficit.
Deputy Chief Kevin Lemke says officers advised Hopper not to attend.
The parade will start at 3:00 p.m. at Rees and Main and move south down Main Street. It is meant to be a family affair, but this year will have a significant police presence.
“Obviously people have a right to express their political views, we’re just concerned for the safety of himself, participants and people that are there to enjoy the parade,” Lemke explained.

Wild Thing’s comment……..
This is crazy, how these protesters are behaving. And this is America and to have anyone concerned about attending a parade because of not being safe….. OMG.
Where is Obama condeming these death threats…..???? He is probably calling them to cheer them on.
while all these union thugs are protesting, who’s doing their jobs? Unless they’re paid protesters, they do have jobs and work for a living, don’t they?
Come now Comrade Babeushka Wild Thingskov… You mean
ST PETERSBURG DAY parade, da?
Why are they still protesting? The legislation has been voted on and the deal is done. They lost. Go back home and work on getting their people elected next election cycle.
This is extortion. Where is law enforcement? Where is the Dept of non-Justice? Where is the bottom feeding wimp in charge?
TomR, that would be doing things the American way. That’s what the Tea Party did.
Bob, good point, yessss who is doing their jobs for them while they protest. No one in the media has even mentioned that.
Thank you everyone so mcuh.
Darth, hahahaha so funny.
