Watch the video if you want to see exactly who and what these union thugs are. Don't watch the video if you don't want to face the truth about who you support and who you are.

"A Fox News contributor was punched in the face during a pro-union protest Tuesday in Michigan, one of a series of confrontations between union demonstrators and opponents on the day the state Legislature approved so-called "right to work" legislation that unions oppose."

Don't look at the image if you don't want to face the truth about who you support and who you are.

Comparing violent crime to political speach are we? While I detest the use of racism in presenting one's political arguments, it is, none the less, non-violent speach. Assault and battery, on innocent citizens, is in a whole new league as "protest" for gov't action. Think, before you drink, even Koolaid. :roll:

Awesome...you support and are every idiotic, over the top, crazy, hateful thing anyone on your generalized side has ever said.

Wonderful logic

Well a lot of generalizations goes on here. Emotions get heated, and we can expect that we can always find someone of all political stripes to go too far. So, while I don't support such actions, I paint all with one brush either.
 
This is what happens when Fox News provocateurs face real men. The guy deserved a good thrashing. Maybe he should stick with his sissy friends at Fox, like Hannity.

So the next time a liberal news person goes to a tea party deal, the tea party folks can give him a nice couple shots to the face?

Maybe that thug would like to try that on conservative Chuck Norris.
 
Chuck Norris doesn't flush toilletes. He scares the **** out of them.
 
Is anyone even surprised by this stuff anymore?

By the time this is all said and done enough people will have turned their backs on the unions because of behavior like this... they'll be lucky if they have enough support left to be able to buy off the dog catcher.

Keep up the good work, guys!!
 
These union thugs reminded me of the occupy crowd and this kind of behavior does not help their cause in the least, in fact I would say they are shooting themselves in the foot if not the head.

With a little help in doing so of course:

Americans for Prosperity stages phony altercation at Michigan Right to Work rally

There’s a video on heavy rotation at Fox News, being massively retweeted by conservatives and Americans for Prosperity, where they talk about the “brutality” and “violence” of union members at today’s rally in Lansing, Michigan to protest Right to Work legislation. The video shows an Americans for Prosperity tent coming down on the front lawn of the Capitol Building.

As it turns out, American for Prosperity (AFP) themselves were responsible for at least one of the tents coming down. Tom Duckworth watched one of the folks that had been in the AFP tent go around and loosen the straps on the tent. According to Duckworth, “the stakes came down from the INSIDE.”​





I'm absolutely positive Fox News will post a retraction after trying to incite hate against unions with this American's for Prosperity lie.

Also, wtf was union hating AFP doing setting up tents at a union rally in the first place?

I like how that "reporter" was there hardly to report on the situation rather than to push the RTW agenda at an already over-heated pro-union rally.
 
Maybe that thug would like to try that on conservative Chuck Norris.

Well there you have it. A "Real American" like Chucky...

Perhaps he and Chuck can have a nice little prayer session together. Morris is a brainless twit. Yawn.

Yeah, sure!
Tom Duckworth vs my own eyes watching the videos of rioting Union members.
Sure! :doh

Yes. Because Fox News NEVER edits videos to lie and distort. Never.

I guess you don't remember Fox demonizing unions in Wisconsin by inserting footage of protests in california for something completely different just to try and indicate that wisconsin union gatherings were violent. It's the famed "Palm trees in Wisconsin?" Fox footage.

The problem is that Fox makes stuff up a lot, and thus have little to no credibility.
 
History is a good thing . . . go back a 100-years . . . this is nothing. Wait.

Wrong!
It isn't a problem here at all.

This is a Crowder video.



And notice that Crowder is speaking about this being a second tent that we can see they are trying to take down.

It's about time they actually start fighting.
Sure! :doh
A call to violence? Really?
What a shame.


And since Union members are woefully out numbered in the US.
Guess who is going to be on the losing side.

If Fox News wants to send punks to insult working men, they better be prepared for a shiner.

According to Spitzley, Crowder had an exchange with two pro-union men wearing blue jeans, hard hats and Carhartt clothing. One of the men accused Crowder of working for Amway, the family company of Michigan businessman Dick DeVos. Crowder joked that he sells soap.

"He said, 'I sell soap. I should sell you some,'" Spitzley said, quoting Crowder.

Crowder said he never suggested the men needed soap or could use a bath. "That wasn't my intent," he said. He also said he was nonconfrontational throughout the exchange.


Note, Crowder doesn't dispute what he said, he's just pretending it wasn't an insult. Typical rightwing dishonesty.
