When Governor Paul Walker went to tour a successful inner city school, you know, to bring attention to its success, the unions decided that it was the perfect opportunity to scare students and attack the governor. More union love for the little people.

In the video at the article it is reported that by some strange coincidence, several doors to the school had the locks glued over, and other vandalism occurred. The first vandalism the school has experienced in 11 years. Hmmm...could it be connected with the union protest?

SEIU, AFSCME and Milwaukee Public School officials combined forces with Students for a Democratic Society, self-professed Hippies and others to march, sing, chant and yell at not only the governor, but the students and staff of Messmer Preparatory School.​
The Messmer story is inspiring, and one I’ll tell in greater detail here soon. What’s really striking to me is this obnoxious display of thuggery comes onthe heels of the release of the MacIver Educational Choice Census, which shows that throughout Wisconsin, parents are embracing educational options. In Milwaukee, nearly 4 out of 5 children attend a school other than the one geographically assigned to them by the public school bureaucrats
.

Contrast them with the kids at Messmer. These students come from the same abject poverty, single parent-dominated households and unsafe neighborhoods as their peers in the Milwaukee Public School System. Yet, they are eager to learn, polite, inquisitive and successful.
Qualities in which the protesters are severely lacking.

There is a video linked at the article.
