Threatening letters sent to Milwaukee residents against Scott Walker
Letters filled with hate being sent to some Milwaukee residents who don't support Governor Scott Walker. The letters are about a page long and include a lot of name calling.

The person behind it uses the name American patriot. The author claims union protestors ruined the capitol earlier this year and warns the same thing could happen to non-supporter's homes this halloween.

Mario Rodriguez says, "I have my wife and three kids so anybody that's going to make threats on your home, you don't know if they're going to make good on that."The letters are being sent from a fake address in Milwaukee including a zip code that only has four numbers.

I was driving behind a truck today with a large sticker on the back that read, "My dog bites Democrats". I am disgusted at what this shit has turned my state into. :(

7. Living, working, shopping, playing, and being *IN* red Wisconsin

and being at the recount and observing the elections, I don't subscribe to the stealing theory. There are too many of us watching very closely.

This is the most divided place in the nation. As is demonstrated by the points in the OP.

9. Thugs only understand brute force, I fear.
They won't quit with this terrorizing nonsense until there is blowback from their actions. Next thing you know, they'll graduate to vandalism and rock tossing through windows before somebody tries to put an end to this.
