This brief and powerful testimonial from one of Madison's Finest shows the courage, the determination, and the will to do what is right.

The people of Madison and the people of Wisconsin are quickly waking up to the lies and deceit they have been lead to believe. The right-wing on-air personalities are going to great lengths to denigrade and disgrace all Wisconsin public employees. The workers are standing up and speaking out in defiance, they will not be the victims of the media masters any longer.

This video was originally streamed live on February 21, 2011 during the "Wisconsin rally at the capital in Madison" event inside the WI State Capital Building in an aisleway leading to the Rotunda.

7. awesome
The cops at all levels have been SO great through this time - City, County, State... I had a talk with (Dane Co. Sheriff) Dave Mahoney last Tuesday, as we were leaning over the third level of the rotunda, watching the crowds. I wanted to thank him for speaking up against the bill, and we ended up talking for quite a while. He has been involved in labor issues from both sides of the table, and I would HOPE that the republicans would take his comments to heart.

...heart... huh, what was I thinking...? :shrug:

11. I like how Walker's ploy to exempt police and firemen has not worked to his advantage.
He wanted to divide and conquer; but forgot, or rather never knew, that working people sick together. Unions are about solidarity and fairness first. Repukes make the mistake of thinking everyone else is like they are- all about the money.

12. Better late than never!
How much does this guy back the Tea Baggers desire to have everyone carry weapons?

Remember their signs which included this gem, "We came unarmed THIS time"!

MLK would be proud of us!

16. But the damage was done
because he voted for Bush. Most of the damage was done by handing corporations the keys to the kingdom.

20. It's not too late, and sitting back and supporting the Reaganesque Obama
is not going to help anyone. We need people in the street, and kudos to that guy for finally getting it and speaking out.

21. It's good that he finally saw the light but it's sad that it took something this extreme to
make him see it. I guess that's how conservatives are- they think that they're some how above it all and it's not until something like this happens right in front of them that they finally get it. If only the rest of the teabaggers was there so we could get more converts.

23. Yup.
All Conservatives think Faux News is great (Dems are blood suckers, lazy, etc etc) .... until Faux News and Limbaugh and O'Reilly start talking about THEM as being lazy, blood suckers, etc etc. As long as there is a "them" Faux News will be wonderful. Glad to see one articulate, intelligent police officer has seen the light.
