Here is Ohio's:
The statue out front is of Ohio Governor and U.S. President William McKinley.
The building of this statehouse was a real soap opera. Replete with personality conflicts, expiring legislation, cholera and arson.

(UPDATED AT 3:56 P.M.) Democratic legislative leaders in Ohio said Tuesday that they were prepared to ask a judge to force officials to unlock the doors to the Statehouse as thousands of union protesters gathered for a hearing on a bill that would strip public employees of collective bargaining rights.
Ohio Public Safety spokesman Joe Andrews says about 1,000 people have been allowed into the Rotunda and Atrium for a committee hearing on the bill and additional visitors without appointments were turned away in the interest of safety. The heightened security came after a long President's Day weekend during which unions across the state sought to mobilize their supporters against the bill and bring out big crowds.
Visitors wanting to attend the hearing after doors were closed were directed to an off-site theater, where the meeting was to be simulcast.

Pro or Con, Conservative or Progressive, The men and Women our Representatives need to step in the well and speak their peace, win, loose and if loose regroup and convince and win on the next round aka the Tea Parties.
Having rabble raisers in the building does nothing. In fact if Gov. Walker wants to call in the National Guard to kick them out I am ok with that.
FWIW, just visited the MI State House last week and they do not allow protesters inside, outside yes and I am cool with that. You can come in and Observe in the Balcony of the House and Senate ( anyone of any political persuasion) but do not disrupt.

no matter what, the gubermint will “get theirs”
This just brings back the image of Republicans continuing debate after Nancy Polosi has the lights turned off and locked everyone outside including the reporters.
Where were they then, these fascists?
I’m going to state this right now. I think that Obma and his minions ar very capable of political assassinations, including 2012 Republican Presidential aspirants. There ARE people willing to murder for the “New World Order”, and I believe that the trail leading to the White House would b tenuous but real. If I get banned, so be it. But I’ll bet that the vast majority of FREEPERS are similarly worried. These people are sociopaths, and personal power is all that matters to deranged individuals.
Look at Rahm Emmanuel: “Dead, dead, dead”, referring to Senators. Obama: If they bring a knife to a fight, we’ll bring a gun.” My local EX-Pa. Congressman Paul Kanjorski: (Rick Scott) should be put against a wall and shot”. These are all sick, demented cold-blooded menaces. Incapable of killing? I think not. Bob
Misleading headline. Door closed by the Ohio Highway Patrol due to safety concerns.
These kinds of folks have always been around. The difference IMHO is we no longer have the Rule of Law.
By trashing the Constitution, they took away the Rule of Law.
By twisting words and meanings they took away the Rule of Law.
Do these folks have the Right to protest? Yes.
They don’t have the Right to threaten any elected official. They can do that with impunity, but don’t you or I dare say one word against them or their elitists.
Did the teachers return to the classroom today?
I’ve been looking for news on this and have not heard or read that they did or did not. Anybody know?
“In addition to all the sleeping bags, your State Capitol is now sporting a very robust fragrance. To better help you capture the essence of this new scent, visualize the Chicago Bears locker room after them not showering for an entire season—minus the hosing they took from the Green Bay Packers! P-U!”
Harry Reid will be complaining.
Have the Firemarshall close the chambers of the legislature for code violations.
Oh the irony.
I love it.
The moron union members apparently gathered in the Convention Center here in Dayton for some reason that I cannot fathom.
The more they expose themselves to the WORKING PEOPLE - the people who actually go to work - the more disgust they cause.
This should not help their cause. I pray that people look at the chaos and realize that we the people are paying inflated salaries to thugs across America.

Nope, that’s our state house in Ohio.

Thanks for the correction. I got confused because of the way the pic in 1 is cropped.
I posted earlier today that if confronted by a Tripoli or Cairo-type mob, Hussein will order loyalist troops (probably already selected) to open fire on the protesters and he will be praised for it by the same worshipful leftist media that is currently condemning Kadaffi.
That son of a bitch Warren in US Vs. Brown threw out the provision in Taft Hartley that required union leadership to sign affidavits that they were not communists.
As a result, union leadership is comprised of nothing but.
We are getting ready to hit the CPUSA and the American communist movement so hard that they wont have time to crawl back under the rocks they came out from
I vote we gas the union scum. The world will be better because of it, especially if there are no more Democrats in office.
