Scott Walker Supporter Arrested At Bill Clinton Rally [View all]
A lone Scott Walker supporter was arrested at a campaign rally for Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett today, where Bill Clinton also spoke. The man had been arguing with rally attendees since before the rally began, and held a sign that said "Support Scott Walker, Not Union Thugs."
After the end of Clinton's speech, the man was taken away by police and taken to the corner of Pere Marquette Park in downtown Milwaukee as the police waited for their car to arrive.
The arrest was the latest in a long series of incidents in a race marked by intense, personal bitterness on both sides.
"I have no idea why I'm being handcuffed," he told the gaggle of reporters who had followed him. "They won't tell anybody what I did wrong. What rally specifically do I get to peacefully protest?"
