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.

She looks A LOT like Rachel Corrie.

She'd probably think you were flattering her.

[Hegewisch Dupa]

I’m sorry - did you say ‘flattering’ or ‘flattening’???

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I thought that the Left gave up trying to hang CNN on our side as nobody bought it, not even their base of complete morons.

She just reminded me. How much did the Wisconsin State Capitol cleanup and damage repair cost and who paid the bill? I thought they would want people to forget that part.

[Codeflier]

I have to disagree with you. Young people react negatively to losers like this in general. If you make Thistle the face of the recall movement, then you are on the way towards killing the movement.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

I ask you, How did Thistle get to be Thistle?

This spool will require a lot of unwinding.

[Chode]

what a maroon...

This girl obviously took one look in the mirror and realized that “the good life” wasn't going to be handed to hear on a silver platter. So instead of trying to improve her mind, develop a fetching personality, and make as much of her unfortunate looks as possible she's playing the “I reject everything” game.

I think this is the most common path to lesbianism. A lot of these women are simply to lazy and to averse to risk to jump into the “competitive marketplace” and fight for the man of their dreams. So they purposefully go the other way and pretend to have no interest in men so their looks and lack of refinement aren't held against them.

It's the “easy” and “safe” route...in the view of someone with an underdeveloped mind.

The absolute best line from “Thistle” was “ It’s really hard to be an Anarchist in America, man!”

The second best was “The Military Industrial Media Complex”....

I swear to God, an enterprising PhD candidate in Psychiatry, Psychology, Sociology, Politics could absolutely score an entire dissertation - gift wrapped with a bow tie and/or straight jacket......just damn.....

[Gaffer]

A thistle is some kind of plant part that is long and straight and can often get caught up in one’s garments or undergarments if one were to lay down in such, right? The effect being the person feels like they have a burr in their ass?

[nhoward14]

If that’s what she is like sober, I’d hate to run across her when she is drunk.

[Tea Party Terrorist]

Anarchy is more about preventing the State from protecting private property than it is not having a Government at all.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

“She looks A LOT like Rachel Corrie.”

Too bad Thistle doesn’t look like Rachel Corrie looks like right now.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Thistle?

[5th MEB]

That girl needs to seek professional help real quick.
She has some thing seriously wrong with her medulla oblongata.
Perhaps a lobotomy with a mellon-baller would help.

[ontap]

Useful idiot!!!

[tweakDU]

I could only handle about a minute of this airhead. She was better than Maddow though.

[mjp]

Thistle is a libtard loser who just wants to blame everybody else for her failures.

[afraidfortherepublic]

Is that Treble Clef medallian around her neck real gold?

[boop]

You’re braver than I am. This woman is clearly crazy. Not an original/coherent thought, just babbling. She’s headed for baglady-dom in about 15 years.
