WI DUers please post stories covering protests in your cities.
It'd be great to have one place for DUers to find stories from everywhere.

1. Channel 58 news showed the protests in Milwaukee at MATC
I caught it late, on video it looked like maybe 1500 people outside

They walked from the tech college to City hall, a couple hundred gathered inside to finish the protest.

2. On Saturday Feb 18th
Not ONE single tea bagger would tea bag me.

I must be ignorant of their movement.

6. Pics from the high school protest in Appleton Wednesday

It's great to see students out there. They're going to be directly affected, obviously. And need I mention that some of them will be eligible to vote next year? Hmmmm?

7. BTW, candlelight vigil for labor in Eau Claire last night had 500+ in Phoenix Park
I was there and was surprised at the crowd. Of course being short and only able to see the 10 people around me, I had to rely on MadAsHell for an estimation of the size of the crowd.
