Wisconsin Business Bullied by Unions – Forced to Cancel Tea Party Rally Location
Campaign Trail Report ^ | 8/7/11 | Eric Odom

Posted on 08/07/2011 10:55:18 AM PDT by Nachum

Tens of millions of dollars flowing into Wisconsin on behalf of the union hacks pushing recalls is only part of the assault on the will of the voters. There is also now a campaign of bully tactics underway and tea party organizers are being forced to quickly move rally locations.

The Tea Party Express is hosting a plethora of tea party rallies across Wisconsin in an effort to push back against the unions driving the recalls. While on the road to Kenosha, WI, we learned the venue was no longer willing to host the Tea Party rally due to threats and constant bullying.

The Birchwood Grill was originally the location for the rally. Grill owners had to cancel the use of their location just hours before the event as a result of the union coordinated bullying and intimidation.

The new location for the Kenosha rally is Lincoln Park. The rally kicks off at 2:30 PM on Saturday, August 6.

As a reminder… bullying and intimidation is a common tactic of the left (as seen in video below). Where is Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden on this one?

The unionized police were the ones that protected the thugs in the Wisconsin capitol fiasco. They will protect these thugs as well...

The only thing that will save this country is a Civil War. The Marxists will not go away. They will keep up the thug tactics, stealing elections, and antagonizing anyone who doesn’t go along with their agenda.

The only thing to put an end to this is war. Freedom loving tea party patriots against the the Marxist unions, teachers, professors and 0bama youth.

Someone needs to get a hold of the Governor and get him involved.

How in the world can the people of Wisconsin vote for thugs like that?

First the legislators stalled the government by running to another state. Their capitol was trashed by a bunch of a malicious vandals. The government was thwarted by frivolous lawsuits. A state supreme court judge accused another of choking her. Their allies in the media have dropped all semblance of professional journalism and are shamelessly smearing the opposition.

The Left has used dirty intimidation tactics the whole time to an extent we have not seen since the sixties.

Is there any doubt that they will try to cheat during the election and will throw it into the courts if they lose?

Are these the kind of people we want running our government?

If the people of Wisconsin vote in favor of this ugliness, they will cripple any hope of reform in their state for a long, long time.

That is crazy talk. That kind of talk makes us as bad as the thugs on The Left. Maybe worse. If we act like that, we will lose the sympathy of the American people.

The Tea Party is about upholding the constitution. We will avoid violence and change the government in peaceful ways.

” I will not buy American as long as the UAW makes cars.

I thought that might be a good idea - boycott all union-made products.

Then on second thought (often a much better thought) I realized that’s just what the unions-backed-by-Communists want. To drive all production overseas and break America. It would just play into their hands.

Sorry, Bob. You avoid the reason why we have the Second Amendmemt. Sometimes, things are just too fargone to try to ‘convince’ with words the enemy and their idiot followers. Our American Revolution would have failed if we were not willing to employ force to defend our liberty. The union thugs are employing the threat of violence to prevent us the right to peaceful assembly. We must be ready and willing to unleash a spirited and righteous force against those who would dare bring violence against us.

And the Army. Obama is the commander in chief of the Army, too, and they will kill you and me if he orders them to.

I disagree. Too many in the Army would revolt if Obama gave such an order, and Obama knows it. That is why he wants to dismantle our military culture and drive out the good Americans who tend to volunteer. He invites gays and muslims in. To hedge his bets, he also is trying to start his own civilian army.

“The Tea Party is about upholding the constitution.”

Totally agree.

“We will avoid violence and change the government in peaceful.”

But what do we do when the violent acts are being comitted against us? Stand, take it and roll over? The left is getting more bold and violent by the day. We have to make a stand. I’m not talking about going out and comitting henious acts. But we have to fight fire with fire.

“If we act like that, we will lose the sympathy of the American people.”

We already have lost sympathy with American people. The countless media hits on us leave us with a below 30% favorable and and above 40% unfavorable. Now we are being blamed for the S and P downgrade!

I hate to be chicken little, but what we are doing now is starting to not work. We are up against unlimited funds from unions, special interest groups, and large numbers of roving hoards from all walks of life. We have to get more bold and fight the fight that is taken to us.

The union thugs show up with clubs. The Tea Party people show up with guns fall back. Sorry, this is reality.

Blacks beat white people at fair, white people go to hospital.

I've heard all the talk and braggadocio, as all as I see is communists, union thugs, racist thugs etc, continuously threatening and committing violence against whites, especially conservative whites. There is no push back. It's a one sided battle.

Nov 2010 was a good warm-up lap.

Nov 2012 will be the main event.

Details about the bullying that kept them from Birchwood Grill would have been nice. What did the Union thugs do to make them change venue?
