WI union protester threatens to break Fox News reporter Mike Tobin’s neck
Examiner ^ | February 28, 2011 | Marc Schenker

WI union protester threatens to break Fox News reporter Mike Tobin’s neck. In another confirmation of how threatening, prone to violence, and bullying the union protesters are, Fox News’ Mike Tobin was threatened with the breaking of his neck while making a live report. This occurred late yesterday during the opening minutes of Fox News’ Fox Report, which even prompted the host to exclaim how surprised she was that union thugs were making threats on live TV. This kind of maltreatment by the Democrat-voting union crowd in Wisconsin has been par for the course for Tobin, who has been reporting from there for the last few days. Most shocking of all is how the union crowd of protesters is beginning to look more and more like the wild Arab protesters in Egypt during the last few weeks.

No they are looking more like the government thugs rallying around the current regime that's about to be dismantled.

Where are the cops when public threats of assault are made? Are WI state police at the doughnut shop? Or are they too unionized to do their duty when the union thugs are involved? Gov. Walker should fire whoever was supposed to be doing capitol security yesterday.

As an aside, the WI capitol building must be a stinking mess after being occupied by Leftist pigs for two weeks. It seems the Health Dept. would have some concern about that.

Have you seen Mike Tobin's neck? Breaking it is gonna be pretty hard to do as his neck is the thickest neck I've ever seen!

All kidding aside, I pray for his safety but I'm glad the union thugs are exposing themselves for the violent people they are.

Fox needs to keep covering this. Sooner or later, the labor thugs will start bloodying the noses of their "enemies" at FoxNews, and the cameras should be rolling for the everyone to see the blow-by-blow.

“Where are the cops...”

eating doughnuts with their buddies down at the union shop of course?

Seriously...the police are unionized...and are as much part of the problem now...in fact the unions technically hae a “legitimate” enforcement arm...

Why should anyone be surprised , unions have always used thuggery to force their position. Unions are simply a step up from forcing store owners to pay protection. There are a lot of similarities between the mafia and unions.

We need to free school students from being second class citizens. Educating our students should be teachers first priority not union demands and control.

"MADISON -- Hundreds of off-duty police officers and deputies joined protests Saturday against Gov. Scott Walker's budget bill."

Do not expect union cops to support the taxpayers against fellow union protesters. Do not be surprised if they threaten to fire upon the National Guard if the NG is sent in with orders to use force to clear out the protesters.

Mike Tobin looks like he could handle himself pretty well in a straight-up fight. Probably would get swarmed by these union p*ssies though.

I guess this is why the LIB/DIM beloved former President Roosevelt spoke so strongly against public employee unions. Fie all of them. Stop the sob stories...just fire them.

If the Unions lose in Wisconsin they are dead ducks. They are desperate and fighting for their lives and they know it.

These things couldhave been worked out in a collective bargaining way where the unions gave a little,but they arrogantly are going for the “Big Casino” and they are going to lose.

If local police were to ever fire upon federal troops such as the National Guard, then the Second Civil War will be officially declared and it will be Katy-bar-the-door after that.
