‘Scott Walker Teabagger!’: Protesters Seem to Mock National Anthem During Wisconsin ‘Americans for Prosperity’ Rally

Maclver News Service has posted video of anti-Scott Walker protesters in Madison, Wisconsin making disrespectful remarks during the National Anthem at the Americans for Prosperity Tax Day Rally.
“Scott Walker tea-bagger!” one can be heard saying loudly, at the beginning.
“Show some respect for your country,” someone responded.
By the end of the National Anthem, right after “home of the brave,“ one of the protesters twice said ”We’re over here!” as though, perhaps, they are the “brave.” His companion yells something loudly, though it is difficult to make out the phrase.
In another video of the group, uploaded by Gateway Pundit, one can be seen holding a socialist “clenched fist” decorated to look like the American flag. In this clip, as well, one of the men shouts “Scott Walker tea-bag!”
The Maclver Institute comments: “Not long ago, it was unthinkable to disrespect the National Anthem in anyway whatsoever. However [protesters] showed no hesitation in crossing that line on Saturday in Madison, Wisconsin. As thousands prepared to gather for the Americans for Prosperity Tax Day Rally, a few protesters gathered at the edges of the to crowd show their contempt.”
The second clip simply deems the group “Crazy anti-Walker [Nuts].”

Posted on April 14, 2012 at 8:13pmKURT1010: These heathens are too darn lazy to establish their own government, money system, banks, jobs, transportation, schools, and every other facet of society. They simply want to sit home in front of their TV and soak in their “fair share” of our money, for as long as it lasts, that is.
We are seeing the effect of Jimmy Carter’s legacy (the Dept. of Education) and the welfare mentality. Doesn’t require much brainwork to see what has been done to the majority of children from the X and Y generation (and currently to the Z gen). As hard as it is to admit, these brainwashed students are the (gag gag) “future leaders of America.” Universities are fine-tuning those leaders – like the University of Oregon with its new curriculum, teaching how to live and govern in a Marxist society.
Walter Cronkite was a scathing example of un-Americanism, with his multitude of Global Governance awards and active support of the work of people such as George Soros. Why are so many upset with the heathens’ display of disloyalty and un-Americanism today? It has been in evidence, and on display, for quite a while.
Lord, come quickly.

Posted on April 15, 2012 at 2:22pmMAMA6: Just remember what Samuel Johnson said: “Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels.” One does NOT have to place their hand over their heart during the reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance or the Star Spangled Banner. It’ is rude not to do so but not necessarily unpatriotic. Patriotism is felt in the heart and shouldn’t need to be worn on the sleeve (or lapel) in order to feel patriotic.

Agree. I might add…the people that move out of big cities & come to Montana.. who want to change it to their liking & usually their ideas “stink” but they have the money & vote in politicians to do their bidding & we Montanas that just want a simple life…well….the beat goes on. So much of Mt. is owned by the Feds & so much of it is fenced off where we use to get permission from the landowners & enjoy our state…not anymore. I love Montana but glad I’m on the dying end of life before this “Last Best Place” really gets screwed-up. I don’t own Mt., but I love Mt..

Posted on April 14, 2012 at 7:06pmThere is nothing as bad as socialism in all its forms and facets. Collectivism, Marxism, Communism, Statism, and Utopianism have the same things in common, the denial of individual rights and the enslavement of the individual to the state. Most of the people that support it are just stupid, sick and misguided. However, there are some people that actually believe in it and they are evil. Any ideology that is based on holding a gun to a person’s head in order to force them act in a manner that is against their own self interest is evil and immoral. Socialism NEVER rocks!

Those huge blue states that were so successful at one time is where all of the hands out riff raff either got started or where they eventually settled keeping the local democrat politicians well ensconced for decades. Now that those states are drained of funds the rats will start to invade the red states. Let’s take a firm lesson from these places and avoid those give away programs that made the former wealthy blue states so attractive in the first place. Those states grew so much money at one time then p i s s e d it away that they will not have to rely on the poor red states to pull their collective dead asses out of the fire.

Report Post »DO bring a video or still camera with fresh batteries.
DO get photos or video of any offensive signs or behavior – racist signs, signs connecting O’s administration to Nazis, anti-Semitic signs, signs calling for violence – and send them totpcrashers@pjtv.com.
DO inform them calmly and civilly that the signs and behavior are unwelcome.
DO get pictures including the faces of people holding, the people standing with the offensive signs, and context.
DO have “Infiltrator” and “Brought to you by…”, or similar type signs, and stay close to the offensive signs so it’s hard for the legacy media to single them out.
DO capture video of people shouting offensive words or slogans. Loudly – but calmly and civilly – challenge them for the misbehavior, and get that on video, so it’s clear it was denounced at the time.
DO assume people with their faces covered, especially with a balaclava or ski mask, are not your friend.
DO report any harassment or assaults to the police, and capture that report on video as well, if possible.
DO KEEP YOUR COOL. Keep calm. Be nice. These people are agent provocateurs, and the worst thing you can do to them is not be provoked.
