Tweets out of Madison
I have been monitoring the tweets coming out from both sides in Madison. The messages from the left generally say:
Join us today
Stand up for those who serve you

They give the times etc. Pretty innocuous but now the tweets are coming from the tea baggers and those are the scary ones:
Shoot them down
Bring back Freedom and Liberty
Stop the socialist
One tea bagger actually wrote she would have to bring her child and was so afraid of the violence.

There has been no violence, this has been a peaceful rally for days. I am so afraid that those tea baggers are going to start something.

1. Can you give us some of the links?
...and I agree that once the Koch goons are in place there is a high probability for violence.

5. Go to google
Type in your search - I have been using rally in madison
After you do the search on the left hand sidebar there is a Realtime link. That brings up all the tweets for your search.

13. I found him via Google's Realtime feature using the key words furgee suggested
The Realtime stuff rolls off pretty quick so you can't go all the way back to earlier this morning. But the nuts do pop up. Maybe some of the same ones the Op referred to.

:hi:

14. Such scumbags
When I find these I love to read the bio stuff they have posted
ChicagoPatriot writes his as:
# Bio Conservative, Defender of the Constitution, www.WeGov.com Online political advocacy tools and technology, Chicago REALTOR®, Sailor, Photographer, Traveler, Cook

He is a defender of the Constitution. Hmm guess he has forgotten that we have the right to assemble.

15. One of the tweets in Realtime said they heard that only 300 "antis" may show up in Madison
Sounds too good to be true since they're being bussed in.

Too bad the Realtime stuff rolls off so fast!
