Union thug, Gilbert Johnson, President AFSCME Local 82 in Milwaukee, gave a speech the day after the recall election where he bashed the "teabag" crowd and said that they want to go back to the days of lynchings.
Johnson, accompanied by cheers from the crowd, referred to members of the Tea Party as a "bunch of haters." He said that they "want to go back to the '50's" where there was "white man rule".
His unifying and hopeful speech gets even better. After hating on conservatives, he expressed a desire for unity in America. He says, "The statistic came out that the minority population would soon be exceeding the white population and all the sudden we start having fear!" According to him, white people (or the tea party?) say "Let's get guns! ... Let's go back to the 50s way, where we can just kill people and hang people and lets go back to that time that we are trying to get far away from."
He lamented that "that's what we're up against. We're up against people....that want to concentrate on those kinds of things." He said that the opposition is saying, "You can have guns and be hateful, and that's okay in Wisconsin...but we're gonna tell them that's not ok in Wisconsin, it will never be okay in Wisconsin."
The union thug continues to ironically say, "We're here today because we're saying Hell no to hate!"
Now that the race baiting portion of the speech is done, now it is time to attack the rich! He continues, "Now we have a state that says, 'the only people that should profit are the rich and those dumb enough to vote with them!" During the recall campaign, "we were bombarded that people who were so selfish, they didn't want to pay a little bit more to get our state back in order, they think that we, the people who are poor and in need should do the sacrificing and they should do the rejoicing."
The wake of this recall election has been very telling; one Tom Barrett supporter actually slapped him when she felt he conceded too early. Whether it is "Kill Scott Walker" tweets, charges of the election being "bought," or charges of "Robocalls", some of those who supported Tom Barrett are showing their true colors.
Johnson said that the recall election wasn't against business or the republicans, but about being fair to everyone. "We will continue to fight until victory is ours and justice is done!" Perhaps the unions and the Barrett supporters can find more productive ways to promote their causes.

Kind of makes this article nothing more than propaganda.
BTW, the AFSCME used to be the 2nd biggest one in Wisconsin. After being able to choose to join or not, its membership dropped 50%.
Union thug? With a link to the organisation as your evidence?
I didn't say he wasn't wasn't race-baiting. Essentially, I'm saying you are too by presenting such a myopic view of it in a persuasive context.
Some skinhead head got elected to a GOP committee last week, should I ask all Republicans to denounce him before I take their views seriously? David Duke plays a not insubstantial part in the Tea Party movement, it's a slippery slope.
For the record, I denounce all "thuggery" and won't rationalize it. Humor me and do the same for "racism"?
Some skinhead head got elected to a GOP committee last week who?? What is this?
David Duke plays a not insubstantial part in the Tea Party movement Whaaaaa? Really? "a not insubstantial part" means a substantial part, right?
For the record, I denounce all "thuggery" and won't rationalize it. Humor me and do the same for "racism"? I strongly denounce racism. And beyond that, I will be the first to hold someone accountable if they act in a racist manner, such as the "jerk" in the article above.

Former Pa. skinhead wins GOP post with single vote

Their Tea Party views....
"welcome to the community. You've gotten to the root of the issue - Tea Parties are implicitly White. A lot of those members were hoping, perhaps many of them subconsciously, that it would turn into a mainstream pro-White movement. When a movement stops growing and evolving with its members (White America IS waking up), the membership starts to look for new outlets for their bottled-up decades of pro-White sentiment."
SPLC page....
"Recruited into the neo-Nazi movement while he was stationed at Fort Bragg in the 1990s, Smith, of Pittston, Penn., has been active in an extraordinary array of white nationalist, skinhead, and neo-Nazi groups, including American Third Position, Keystone United (formerly Keystone State Skinheads), and the Council of Conservative Citizens. He is a former Aryan Nations member and former leader of the Philadelphia chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of White People, which was created by former Klan leader David Duke but is no longer associated with him. Smith also belongs to a Pennsylvania-based group called the European American Action Coalition (EAAC), which according to its website was formed in fall 2011 “by a few well known White activists in the great and historic state of Pennsylvania.â€
omg. Maks. So lol, nobody did actually vote for him! wow. I am surprised that you would use him as an example, and then to tie him to the tea party! wow!
My question, "should I ask all Republicans to denounce him before I take their views seriously?" was rhetorical.
Haaahahaahahahaahahaahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would maintain that wanting to force their will on the rest is the key! The ultimate definition of thug.
"U.S. Rep. Ed Towns, who recently announced his retirement from the congressional seat he has held for 30 years.
Back in 2006, Barron challenged Towns and came very close to defeating him. Then last week, Towns shocked everybody by endorsing the rival he once called a “bomb thrower.â€
“Even though we’ve been on different sides, we always shared a belief in making things better for this community,†Towns said. “I feel Charles will do a better job as my successor.â€"
Although I have to say that Jefferies does seem more qualified. Though I'm guessing there are local political factors we're not seeing here that have something to do with the endorsement for Barron by both the out going incumbent and the union. Probably the people funding Jefferies.
Did you see that the ADL condemned Barron?
"Barron levels a range of accusations against the Jews and the Jewish state, most notably that it should never have been created. In June 2010, for example, he asserted that Blacks, not Jews, are the "real" Semites—a position frequently advanced by anti-Semites in an effort to delegitimize Jews. In addition to Barron's public pronouncements, he has engaged with the broader anti-Israel movement and participated in campaigns such as the pro-Hamas Viva Palestina US convoy to Gaza."
"Perhaps more troubling are Barron's close ties to radical groups like the New Black Panther Party (NBPP), the largest organized black militant hate group in the United States. Barron has forged strong ties with some of the most anti-Semitic and racist members of the NBPP's leadership, finding common ground over what they perceive as legal and social injustices affecting African Americans."
