If you haven't been holed up in a cabin up in the Washoe Mountains or been locked in cellar by a mad uncle you all should know that there have been protests and counter protests regarding the issue of collective bargaining. It all started in Wisconsin, the cheese state, when Gov. Scott Walker & the legislature proposed legislation changing how most public employees secure pay and benefits under the collective bargaining system.
As you might recall the past election had brought in a huge surge of republicans and they took control of the governors office, and both houses. That electoral change and extreme budget deficit was the collision of two forces that were needed to be addressed in order to bring the Wisconsin budget into balance, as required by law. On Feb 14, 2011 the legislature took up a bill regarding collective bargaining rights and thousands of protesters converged on the Capital, Madison. We saw daily pictures of protests going on and then there were counter protests by supporters of that legislation.
Now I come to the crux of my story, during this past summer, at the various rallies held, the media coverage centered on the supposedly nasty and vile signage and rhetoric by the Tea Parties while leaving out the issues.
We are now in the throes of the teacher/civil servant/Union protests from New York to California and growing. It is absolutely amazing how the media has seen fit to report on this story. The media has again chosen sides and is reporting the teacher protesters in a more favorable light. With all these cameras clicking and video shot something like the truth finally has had to come out. The irony of the Revelation is that there is video that reveals what really happened and the true face of the teacher protesters was revealed.
I could go on for paragraph after paragraph but I believe seeing and hearing are the best evidence. The below site will take you to the clip and you be the Judge.

I have not seen any civility in these signs..they are dangerously on the verge of bloodshed. This has been planned..The taxpayer is the public workers boss.So different than private industry/unions. I would rather pay a little more for these benefits than lose my job. I fear that the average Joe is being taken advantage of by these community organizers in order to get their progressive global gov. that they desire to impose. Now that we are a weak country, the Muslims are stepping in with their agenda of having their flag fly from our capitol bldg. pres. Obama is a closet muslim..that is where all of this is taking us. My trust is in God, my Creator and Saviour.
