Don't you just love it when "the people" have had enough? We are no longer being politically correct and are really stating what's on our minds. We're mad as hell and we're not gonna take it anymore!
The first incident involving the Koch Bros. (don't buy their products - Angel Soft, Dixie,
Spandex, Georgia Pacific etc.) occured at a ballet performance in Brooklyn. Mr. Koch had made a rather large donation to the American Ballet Theatre and was being introduced to the audience before the performance began - there was some polite applause, but noticeable noise from disapproving audience members...David Koch booed.
"... there were also boos from near where I sat in the balcony, followed by an angry debate in the row in front of me, with one of the booers declaring “he’s an evil man” and a couple next to her telling her to “shut up” and to leave the theatre. Mr Koch was venturing into the lion’s den in political terms, since Brooklyn is solidly liberal and Democrat, whereas he and his brother are right-wing libertarian and are alleged to have links to the Tea Party movement, which they deny."
"Once Mr Koch had left the stage, the booing stopped and the ballet started."
And Friday evening, as the Wisconsin governor, Scott Brown, was dining, other patrons began to boo him so loudly that the manager was put in the awkward position of asking the governor and his party to leave the restaurant. Evidently, many of the other customers complained at first, and then began to boo him. Soon, more and more diners joined in. At first, the restaurant's name was published in local news reports, but it was quickly taken down as some of Walker's supporters began to harass the owner....more bullying tactics. Here's the story.
"The M***t [a restaurant] in Madison, WI confirms that on Friday night, *** (one of the owners) politely asked Scott Walker to leave the establishment when other customers began booing him. A bartender at The M**t said that "his presence was causing a disturbance to the other customers and management asked him to leave.'
I'm all for civility, but these guys have it coming. It's a great day in America when these people are shunned for the hardships they bring to the common worker.....keep on keeping on!

I just saw this flash across the twitter world and checked it out. Apparantly the restaurant staff lied about the booing incident to drum up business from the anti-Walker demonstrators. http://theundergroundconservative.wordpress.com/...

The Koch story has been verified from multiple sources as true
The Walker story has multiple sources stating it really happened, while only one questionable source (a conservative one) debunks it. So, based on 3 hours of internet search, I choose to
believe that this "undergroundconservative" is covering ass by calling this incident a hoax.
