Are they uniformed police?

Union? Those look like college age kids.

Oh FGS- this is the kind of crap that justs frosts me- from your link:

Barbara Benson, who works at the Wood County Edgewater Haven nursing home, came along with the group that had headed to RPW headquarters. She said she showed up out of concern for what will happen to the elderly and disabled under Walker’s bill.

....

In NO WAY does this bill remotely bear on the care the disabled and elderly will receive in the future. This is the sort of lie that’s been perpetrated on the public for decades.

After looking at the protestors, I'd hate to be the one to have to clean fumigate the place later.

[bvw]

That would just make it “everybody does it”.

Never play by their rules.

Yup, sad isn't it?

Some of them look like homeless people.

LOL, I didn’t want to be the first to say it, and you said it twice. :O)

[Hoosier Catholic Momma]

No, I’ve seen homeless people who are cleaner than that! :)

Could be paid union thugs. Could also be members of the International Socialist Organization or Al Awda.

Now they’re on private property. They need to either leave on their feet or on the backs.

Governor Walker should go out and calmly speak with the crowd and address their questions. It would make for a great photo op. He should calmly explain the bill once again and exactly what it does. It would be really cool if he was able to get them with a couple of gotcha questions that made it obvious they were being told lies about the bill to scare them.

Yeah, there appears to be a few college kids mixed into these sorts of "events." Nothing else better to do during the day. This is so much more fun and newsworthy than going to class. Sigh.

[justice14]

They need to feel like their lives mean something, so they stand up for these issues that they have no intellectual grasp of.

[SE Mom]

It seems to be getting out of hand there in Madison- and more/bigger protests on Saturday?

[KansasGirl]

LOL

That's never gonna happen. There's too many disruptors. Minds are made up. Not to mention that his own personal safety could be at stake. You don't know what kind of nut-jobs are out there. Did they even have to pass thru metal detectors?
