Walker at CPAC

Found several good tweets about his speech:

Matthew DeFour ?@WSJMattD4 4m4 minutes ago
Walker's response to how he would handle ISIS: "If I can take on 100,000 protesters, I can do the same across the world." #cpac

Wisconsin Defender ?@wi_defender 4m4 minutes ago
Because ISIS is just like a bunch of Midwesterners with funny signs eating pizza in a government office building

Luke Brinker ?@LukeBrinker 21m21 minutes ago
Why has nobody else considered stripping ISIS of collective bargaining rights?

@news3jessica It's nice @GovWalker refers to firefighters/police officers/teachers/doctor/nurses/my neighbors/me on the same level as #ISIS.

If you donated Ian's pizza to terrorist Wisconsin protesters by phone in 2011, prepare to have your assets frozen under President Walker.

How to deal with "armed insurrection? Do it like Scotty.

On March 3, police found 41 rounds of 22-caliber rifle ammunition outside the Wisconsin state Capitol.[85] Ammunition was also found inside a city and county government building in downtown Madison.[86] That same day security at the Capitol had become so restrictive that a team of firefighters responding to an emergency call were denied access to the building.[87] On the same night, Rep. Nick Milroy (D-WI) was tackled by law enforcement officers while attempting to enter the Capitol to retrieve clothes. Milroy said in a statement that "no harm was done," but criticized the "armed-palace environment created by Gov. Walker."[88][89][90] Also that same day, after occupation of the Capitol for more than two weeks, the final group of pro-union protesters left the building peacefully after Dane County Circuit Judge John Albert ordered their removal. The judge ruled that activists could not stay in the building overnight, but he ordered authorities to end the lockdown on the building and restore normal access by March 6.[91]


Shit yourself and lock down the capital for the least powerful ammunition.
So, martial law for everybody on flimsy pretenses.

Faced 100,000 protesters my ass; hid from 100,000 of your own citizens is more like it.
