Walker goons

[salinen]

He thought about placing a goon squad into the rallies, but decided against doing so because he thought it might not work, not that it is immoral or dangerous. Now, would he have informed the police of this action? Most likely not, since the police are unionized.

So, had there been a false riot, and people hurt or killed, doesn't that make Scott Walker guilty of premeditated violence?

Does in my book. Jail time is the only appropriate action.

1. I would think that would be an impeachable offense

You can impeach a governor and not have to wait the year for the recall.

5. Imagine the things discussed by Bush, Rumsfeld, Bolten and Rove

Unfortunately, people, even terrible, evil people are innocent when they dream.

I think that's why you can't have prior restraint without showing just cause.

7. Legally innocent, not morally.

12. Very true.

At this point action group lawyers bird-dogging Walker. If he makes a wrong move, alarms will go off.
Sentiment in the state is really against him.

11. The only problem with that

is that we would then get his kooky lieutenant governor. Highly unlikely the Republican majority legislature would go along, short of his conviction of a felony (and exhaustion of all appeals, of course). By that time the year would be up and we could recall him, and install a Dem as governor. Wishful thinking at present.

14. Someone needs to give him a blow job

2. I think the fact that he even considered it

proves that he is guilty of domestic terrorism.

3. More like "conspiracy"

if there had been agreement between Walker and ANY member of the staff, or affiliated group regardless of whether the actual "crime" had occurred or not.

on the other hand,

IF Walker had actively sought out people to start a riot but there was no agreement, then he could be charged with "soliciting" an illegal act.

4. Paid Koch-Billionaire RepubliGoons Vs. Honest, hard-working Americans

How Republicon is that? Why do Republicons think about hiring Goons to beat up Americans?

8. Repugs hire Goons to beat up what they call "thugs".

Makes my head hurt.

6. his concern was political not danger to actual people

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/plum-line/2011/02/wisconsin_police_chief_trouble.html. I guess it's nice that he decided not to cause a "ruckus." fucker.



:hi:

9. right

a few heads get broken, no problem. a few votes get lost, we ruled it out.

[Matariki]

10. That statement should hurt him politically

but given he didn't act on that thought, I don't see how he could be convicted. I'm not a lawyer though.

13. He just admitted what we know they did at the GOP convention in '08

Violence-inducing fake protesters who suddenly become the "face" of progressive demonstrators on the M$M shitworks.

FUCK THEM AND THE KOCH THEY RODE IN ON.
