Nope. It kind of looks like one of the Baldwins.

“This whole story is sad proof that Democrats will do anything to destroy the democratic process, deny citizens their say in government, waste taxpayer’s money and use union thugs as an army to carry it all out.”

This story is scary! This type of thuggery leads to violence. Which is a perfect example of why the 2nd amendment is so important.

Enough videotaped “engagements” and the Feds can step in. That might be the best recourse.

We’re having the same problem here in NJ, with one difference, the “State Paid Thugs” are State employed Union Workers.

Are any of the petitioners men? They’d only menace you once down here in Texas and then get an ambulance ride.

It’s the same in Mich - all state employees are unionized.

NJ is trying to recall Gov. Corzine. I sure hope this effort grows some legs!

Michigan—wholly owned by Unions and Muslims.

As Jeff Goldbloom says “they’ve got the upper hand.”

This is nothing than State sponsored Mafia tactics. We got rid of the mob and we get state sponsored racketeering. Get the RICO laws ready.
