Then at 7:32 in this clip, a union thug attacks a Public Access TV camera and says such civil things as he's a “fa**ot” and then offers to “f**k you in the ass,”
The reason is because the Unions fear their political power is slipping away and they seem to know their time is limited....desperate times call for desperate measures!
He said nice work on portraying working people as "tough guys" and thugs! He also said they're really the victims in all of this and don't even know it.
I watched the first video--the part that you neglected to mention is that the crowd immediately pulled the upset man away from the cameras and told him to knock it off. Is it acceptable behavior--absolutely not, and I wouldn't blame someone for filing charges (although he didn't do any damage), but it wasn't condoned by the crowd--they immediately stopped it.
On the second video--as far as the tea party shoving a camera in the man's face and shouting at the protester--I'm a middle aged, petite, PTA committee chairing, Sunday School teaching mother of 5--I would have done a lot more than tap his camera with my sign if he would have screamed at me like that and video taped me against my will. I would have stomped on his camera. What do you expect from people?
There are literally hundreds of thousands of people rallying on this issue around the country as we speak, and you've come up with two examples of inappropriate behavior--one that the crowd immediately stopped, and another that you've posted twice now.
In the second video, those folks (the tea party) were deliberately going out in the crowd to try to stir something up with the union protesters. Emotions are running high, and both sides need to take some responsibility for their behavior--why would the tea party do that with a camera unless their entire purpose was to try to find a scrap of video they could use to say "SEE!!! It's not just us!! These people behave badly too!!!"
You folks aren't as slick as you think you are. People see through this.

So you basically condone everything that these people do no matter how bad/illegal because you agree with them? Thanks, we got it.

Jesus H. Christmas, when the heck will people stop posting the garbage?
Seems like bad behavior by those individuals. Any proof these guys weren't tea party infiltrators acting on the advice of either tea party leader Mark Williams or Governor Walker or other conservative groups?

Of course not!! What I do think is DUMB is that you've come up with two examples of people behaving badly out of nearly two weeks of protests involving hundreds of thousands of people, and you're trying to hold this up as some type of proof that teachers, firefighters, police officers and nurses are THUGS. Give me a break!!! These are the people that protect and care for the public and our kids every day. You can call them lots of things, but THUGS is about as disrespectful as it gets. Why don't you focus your anger on the assistant state attorney general in Illinois who got fired for suggesting the police fire live ammo into a crowd of peaceful protesters, and then when confronted about it, wouldn't apologize.
What's WRONG with you people?
