Guy in Pink Dress Accosts MacIver Intern (Graphic Language)

Raw, unedited footage of an incident at the Wisconsin State Capitol, 6/14/2011.
Various liberal activists gathered to protest Governor Scott Walker's proposed state budget and changes to the state's collective bargaining law. As it has almost every day since mid-February, the MacIver News Service gathered video footage of the event.
We show you what happened when our intern answered the question "Who are you with?"

For the record, we do our best to purge the comments for abusive and profane language. We encourage discussion and an exchange of ideas and opinions, but constant use of profane language will get you blocked.

@MacIverInstitute Ok during the special olympics piece why did you not do any interviews with the people that put on the event? There were two people that work for the S.O. that stated that the protesters did not disrupt anything and one going so far as to say it turned out for the best. Also why did you not mention the part about the protesters shaking hands with the athletes and wishing them luck? Seems like some relevant bits of information you left out. <-Respond to this.

@FentFascist While the organizers of the SO event later tried to downplay the disturbance for the sake of not drawing negative attention to their organization, what we reported was the truth, evident for all to see. As for the protesters shaking hands with a few of the participants, not only did we not capture the footage, even if we had, it would not have negated the fact that the protesters intent was to get attention.

@FentFascist You have to be quite the apologists for the zombies to try to say that there was nothing wrong with that disgusting, self righteous stunt. That being said, we do appreciate you participating in this discussion without being vulgar. Proving people can disagree without being disagreeable.

breitbart, o'keefe & company DO contrive slanderous videos. it's been proven in court! they HAVE been associated with the macgiver institute. i love investigative journalism, but this isn't it.

@MacIverInstitute plus you block lots of folks as well. especially the ones with well constructed insights.  "purge" is the perfect choice of words. almost sounds bolshevik.

@jpredaina um, maybe because he kept saying cut it out...

@NFLGuru22 Wasn't arrested, not a senator, and not in jail! You are a champion of facts!

@MACIVERINSTITUTE why'd you cut the video off at the end and not let the man in the "pink dress" talk about the issues?

YOU'VE BEEN CALLED OUT! lol

@MacIverInstitute You guys should put me on your payroll! I'm doing a better job reporting on the events you've covered then you have.

@MacIverInstitute Still waiting for your proof that the organizers down played the protest of Walker during the SO ceremony, so to not draw negative attention!!! STILL WAITING!
