Walker administration alters protest permit requirements
Source: Milwaukee JournalSentinel

Madison - Gov. Scott Walker's administration is requiring more permits for events and demonstrations at the Capitol and other state buildings.

The policy started Thursday, though there will be a learning period about the new policy lasting until Dec. 16.

"Our goal is to provide equal and continual access for all Wisconsinites to their state buildings in a way that is reasonable and safe," Administration Secretary Mike Huebsch said in a statement. "This policy ensures our ability to appropriately staff events for the safety of those participating."

More limits/controls to free speech thanks to Walker.

3. You don't ask permission from the government to exercise your political rights.

You demand that the government comply with the Bill of Rights including the right to assemble.

10. More Government
What hypocrites....he's all for less government regulation----except when it comes to something that he disagrees with. Then, there is an executive decree demanding bureacratic approval before someone exercises their right of assembly and free speech.

People don't need Walker's permission to exercise their rights under the U.S. Constitution. Where are all the Teabaggers who worship the US Constitution on this issue? Oh yeah, only the people they deem worthy have rights. :sarcasm:

It's a "free market" pirates' wet dream!

No government. No laws or regulations anywhere. Robber barons, warlords, and other assorted madmen in control of everything. Millions of poor, hungry, starving, voiceless, trodden underfoot and kicked to the gutter. Guns all over the place - utterly unrestricted. Total anarchy! A libertarian paradise for sure!

We oughta ship rand paul and ron paul and whoever-the-hell paul and all the other ayn rand worshippers over there on one-way tickets and revoke their passports so they can't get back. They advocate this shit all the time. Let them have a chance to wallow in it.
