Wisconsin anarchist Thistle Pettersen speaks to the MacIver News Service on June 6, 2012, the day after Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker thwarted attempts to recall him.

The interview gives you an uncut (edited for profanity only) look into the perspective of one well known Wisconsin protester.

Borrowing from one of the commenters...How much of a tough guy are you, really? If you think you could handle waterboarding, just see if you can make it through 7 minutes of this screed by Ms. Hippy McBongenstock.

[SeeSharp]

It annoys me when people who clearly want to live in a communist world go around calling themselves anarchists.

[Former Proud Canadian]

She looks A LOT like Rachel Corrie.

[MarineBrat]

People who haven’t the slightest idea of what an anarchist is ping....

[FateAmenableToChange]

She makes me want to weep for America. That’s the future.

[The Louiswu]

Quite the flake.

[Southack]

She wants to be your boss, and she has some ideas for how she will make you behave each day.

If it weren't for weapons simulations I wonder where we would be. Supercomputers don't buy votes, so politicians are unlikely to approve them.

From her lips: "I am an anarchist and I believe in organization"

huh?

(well the who ramble is a series of huh?s)

[rockrr]

I dunno....I think that she has waaay more depth to her ;-)

[Dead Corpse]

Agreed. Anarchy is pretty much the exact opposite of their Socialist Utopia they advocate.

[BBell]

She’s the kind of person that J.Edger Hoover used to keep tabs on.

[Grams A]

Naming a child Thistle - were the parents able to tell something about her while yet in the womb?

[Ranger Warrior]

“Organized anarchist” — there’s a contradiction in terms! This woman truly answered Vladimir Lenin’s call for useful idiots... By the way, calling for violent overthrow of the nation is a violation of the U.S. Constitution, but then I nearly forgot that 0Bama does not believe in that document.

[pogo101]

I’m still not 100% sure she isn’t some conservative/ libertarian who is parodying a silly Pippi Longstocking leftist.

Still not sure.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I don’t even think Laz would hit it.

[MHGinTN]

‘Thislte’ Patterson looks kind of like her name! She is a prickly sour puss.

[MHGinTN]

‘Thistle’ Patterson looks kind of like her name! She is a prickly sour puss.

[SW6906]

She looks like Cindy Lou Who.

[PLMerite]

I’ve always been fuzzy on what kind of society/economy it is exactly that Anarchists want. It would seem to me that modern technology is the only thing keeping these idiots fed, clothed and sheltered.

I don’t even think Laz would hit it.

Laz would hit a pile of rocks if he thought there might be a snake under there somewhere!
