Yesterday in Madison, Wisconsin protesters picketed Governor Scott Walker’s appearance at a Special Olympics ceremony outside the State Capitol. As the event kicked off, the University of Wisconsin marching band played and Bucky Badger danced and hammed it up with the Olympians. Interspersed throughout the crowd were dozens of pro-union protesters.
The picketers were present throughout the event, including some holding signs with questionable language. Many were dressed as zombies.
Someone from the conservative MacIver Institute was on hand to video tape the proceedings. When the representative from Wisconsin-based free market think tank asked a zombified protester if he thought the protest was appropriate at a Special Olympics event, the zombie whispered his reply: “Yeah, that’s why we didn’t come in walking like zombies. We don’t want to offend the Special Olympics.”
This protest was just one in a string of zombie-themes picketings that organized labor have staged against the state’s controversial Republican governor.
Here’s the video of the Special Olympics event…
