edit, I see this is from 2/25, I'm just seeing it today. Story bodes well for the question, who's bidding will the PD do when TPTB's economic controlled demolition progresses further and the civil unrest increases.

BREAKING: Wisconsin Police Have Joined Protest Inside State Capitol (http://understory.ran.org/2011/02/25/breaking-wisconsin-police-have-joined-protest-inside-state-capitol/)

“Police have just announced to the crowds inside the occupied State Capitol of Wisconsin: ‘We have been ordered by the legislature to kick you all out at 4:00 today. But we know what’s right from wrong. We will not be kicking anyone out, in fact, we will be sleeping here with you!’

Overcoming divide and conquer strategies: 99.9% of the US population should support the public unions fight against occupying economic imperialists (http://poorrichards-blog.blogspot.com/2011/02/overcoming-divide-and-conquer.html)

Quick Summary: The global bankers, who caused our economic crisis, are attempting to deflect blame and divide the American public by escalating attacks on public-sector workers. The battle in Wisconsin, which is spreading across the entire nation, should be viewed in a global economic context. Do not let the obsolete Republican vs. Democrat charade confuse you. Even if you believe Unions have been corrupted, in this case you have to go with the strategy: “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
The Global Economic Elite have launched a war on 99.9% of the US public, we must unite and rally together. Unions have played a key role in uprisings from Europe to the Middle East. We must seize this opportunity and let Wisconsin be a spark to light the fires of non-violent rebellion throughout the United States.

according to reports i'm getting, the police did in fact clear the capitol save about 12 hardcore people who wanted to cause a scene/get arrested, so they let them stay. the cops all left as well save a couple to watch the rowdy crew of twelve and supervise the cleanup crew.

The state capitol isn't a campground. Turn off the electricity, water and sewer, internet. Weld all of the doors shut. Wait for the regretful wailing to begin.

Edit: WTI is at $99.50 a barrel. These people claim to be fighting for their civil rights; the cop claims to be defending "the people", but those inside are declaring "the people" to be their oppressors because the taxpaying people can't afford to pay them anymore. There is no g*d d*mned money. Protest high oil prices and see what happens. shit on one hand and protest reality in the other, and see which hand fills up first.

What complete fucking horseshit.
