ANOTHER LEFTIST ATTACK… Union Supporters Harass & Superglue Doors of WI Grocer
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 12:13 PM
Now they’re harassing businesses and gluing their doors shut.
Leftist thugs harassed and then superglued the doors of a popular Wisconsin grocer after it was discovered that individuals at the store had donated to Scott Walker’s campaign last year.
WTMJ reported:
The fight over Governor Scott Walker’s budget is getting sticky.
Literally sticky.
TODAY’S TMJ4′s Diane Pathieu confirmed that doors at Chapman, Curtin, Mellencamp, Mitchell and Sabin Halls all had doors with superglue in the locks on Monday.
She said those doors were opened before 7:30 a.m. Monday morning. No classes were affected.
Newsradio 620 WTMJ’s Jodi Becker confirmed that the doors to the Sendik’s on Downer Avenue were also glued shut.
UWM campus police believed it was a sign of protest, but organizers of a campus rally later Monday afternoon say they didn’t have anything to do with it.
College students are angry over what the bill may mean for them, and they are making their thoughts known in protests.
They were to hold a rally on Monday afternoon in reaction to Walker’s budget, which would split UWM and UW-Madison from the UW system.
Here’s more on the threats against Sendik’s grocery store.
Whitefish Bay Patch reported:
Despite threats of a boycott of Shorewood’s Sendik’s, store owner Anne Nehring said she hasn’t seen much backlash from shoppers- just support.
Two customers came in and told co-owner John Nehring, they were organizing a boycott of the store at 4027 N. Oakland Av.
She added John told them to get out of the store before they would give him a reason for the threatened boycott.
However, on Saturday, an e-mail surfaced threatening a boycott of Shorewood’s Sendik’s, citing the owner’s support of Milwaukee County Executive candidate Jeff Stone and that couple has been “giving funds to union-busters.” Stone voted in favor of the governor’s budget repair bill.
“I care very much about the community and the employees because they are my family,” Anne Nehring said. “People have told me they won’t stop shopping here.”She said other customers say they drove out of their way to support the Shorewood location, which the Nehrings independently own. She added she is hurt by the threats coming from Shorewood residents, and their support of Gov. Scott Walker or Stone was done as individuals and not as the owners of Sendik’s.
“I should be able to do that, as an individual, without being punished,” she said of her support of the Republican party.
Another Sendik’s, 2643 N. Downer Ave., wasn’t so lucky, as the doors to the grocer were Superglued shut Monday. Anne Nehring said there hasn’t been any vandalism of her store.
The e-mail, first reported by 620 WTMJ’s Charlie Sykes, was reportedly sent from one David Weingrod, with an Milwaukee Area Technical College e-mail address, to apparent union representatives at the college and says that the grocer may face a boycott if the owners continue to support Stone.“Please go to the Shorewood manager this weekend and tell him he needs to tell John Nehring that he either pulls his support from Jeff Stone or we will have a serious boycott of Shorewood,” the e-mail said.
Weingrod couldn’t be reached for comment.

Rhonda commented:
Have there been any arrest? Are the police, no longer doing their duty? This is exactly why they should not be unionized. Public workers should be loyal to the taxpayers not a union.
Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
Republicans should sneek out of their homes at night and figure out ways to retaliate. Perhaps glueing the doors of the local union hall shut might by an option.
Rachelle commented:
Fascist thugs.
It should be clear now why public employee unions need to be kneecapped.
After being stabbed in the back by the police and firemen unions on this round, Walker should strip their unions as well.
One way or the other, they are going. Nobody can afford these pampered, privileged, spoiled parasites.
Millitant Conservative commented:
No, no violence. This will probably backfire in the union goons faces. The public at large supports this legislation. So, go out and support your grocer. FUND the fight by doing normal things, shopping for your groceries at a store that supports limited government.
Easy, powder is dry.
Rachelle commented:
The next thing to watch out for is massive voter fraud.
Don’t expect unionized law enforcement or the Holder DOJ to worry about stopping it.
vagabond trader commented:
little pvzzie wannabee anarchists with little prospect of gainful employment anytime soon ……………they should be “thanking” their commie overlords,not decent citizens who actually provide jobs and products.
Jane commented:
This is all getting out of hand. I feel angered by these acts of retaliation. When Obamacare was passed, I hurt no one. When our police are killed by illegal aliens, I don’t go out and destroy anyone’s property. Considering the number of corrupt politicians, if any group stands to loose by being peaceful and using the electoral process–it would be conservative Americans. However, conservatives aren’t the ones acting like monkeys and mental patients. We continue with true hope in our great country and we work to keep it great. Say what you want…make all the signs, but this violence against conservatives will surely lead to a civil war the left has no hope of winning.
Dave-O commented:
The goonion thugs are spreading the message nation-wide that it is time to put an end to public-sector unions. Their time has passed. States from Hawaii to Florida, Maine to Arizona and California are seeing just what a bunch of thugs, goons and hacks make up these organizations. Nobody from the conservative side of the debate could make the argument as well as these libtard thugs can all by themselves. keep it up libtards! You are only hurting yourselves.
Moemo commented:
Just as MC said. We need to all support those who stand up with us. If a store owner has the balls to stand up to these goons then we need to stand up with that store owner and support them, even if you have to drive out of your way to do it.
MochaLite commented:
Check out Sendik’s on Facebook. Lots of comments supporting what looks like a fine grocery store! They don’t ship, or I would order a bunch of stuff from them to show support.
joscefi commented:
It’s a shame that the businesses that were targeted are now stuck with a repair bill, however, in retaliation, they should pointedly hire non union tradesmen, and do so with great fanfare.
wilpeepee commented:
Leftist thugs did this, leftist thugs did that. Wawawawa, lemme call ya a whambulence. What a bunch of lie’n frikken cry babies. Get ready for the recalls.
Horizon3 commented:
And what pray tell are law enforcement doing about this?
In my world this called extortion, and is illegal even to threaten it.
If you think the unions are not tied directly to the mob, all you need to do is look at their tactics.
So now we have the police in a union? why does this not sound right given the correct fact stated above?
Rock commented:
Some might even think this is a form of voter intimidation, maybe its time for the Feds, yea like they even care. DOJ would not prosecute, even it was slam dunk case. Holder and WTF are nothing more than Chicago thugs.
Personally I suspect the 2012 election ballads are already counted and waiting to be distributed. That, or some preplanned crises will come into play. In any case I see little chance of a honest election.
raven1 commented:
The grocery store should send the bill for repairs to the state. Tell Gov. Walker, I bet he would OK the payment. Then take the money out of the education budget.
RickZ commented:

Oh, and I see you’re a find product of public schooling. Can’t even spell an insult correctly. ‘whambulance’. I guess ‘wilpeepee’ is what you call that one (sort of) functioning brain cell in your otherwise empty cranium.
Chris commented:
Saaaay, nice lil’ country youze guys got here.
Sure would be a shame if sumpin’ were t’ happen to it, if ya know wuddai mean…
Perhaps we can help widdat…
raven1 commented:
Hey wilpeepee, The only crybabies I see on my TV are leftist LOSERS! It is great you are all crying your eyes out. The fleabag democrats will be recalled. You idiot union thieves are a small percentage of the voters. You will lose again, just like November.
contessa61 commented:
give it up union goons. I talked to other people on vacation from wisc. and Iowa, and no one supports these outrageous union benefits paid for by taxpayers. Public employee unions ae in a slow death spiral
Snarfo commented:
I have had enough of these union morons. I am going to make a deliberate effort to spend my hard earned money on items that are NOT union made.
Rock commented:
Excuse me did I say Leftist thugs? I really should have been more precise, knuckle dragging union goons may have been more to the point. Elitist always find some schmuck to do the dirty work, heaven forbid they get their polished nails dirty.

Shouldn’t be hard the unions have forced most jobs overseas, China, Mexico, Pakistan. or India. He!! you would be hard pressed to find an American Flag made here in the U.S.
aixsponsa commented:
Here is a website to goto if you want to express your disgust toward the union thugs boycotting businesses. They were targeted the same way. I ran across this info thru another blog and decided to support their business to show we will not be intimidated. (They sell tee shirts & sweatshirts supporting Gov Walker. Normally I don’t get involvrd in these things but enough is enough. Goto http://www.bdembroidery.com and support the business that had the gonads to stand up against pressure from the union thugs.
TimothyJ commented:
Does anybody know if this is a Union shop? If it is, then the union is attempting to kill the jobs of their members, because if I were the owner of that store, I would close down for a week after firing every single union member in the place and hiring new workers. What could happen, they could p/o the union? The union could strike? The union might do something like superglue their doors. It is time for conservatives to get tough. Not violent, tough. Let’s start by calling our congress critters and having them rescind any anti-trust provisions that unions get, and then go after these goons for Rico statute violations.

Don’t confuse public unions (government) with private unions. I realize the private unions are speaking out in support of the public, but this is mostly about taxpayer paid employees.

This is how terrorists operate. So far, no actual violence that I’ve heard of, but still, they are imposing physical, financial, and emotional damage.
This is democracy to them? I think before long the push-back to these terror tactics will surprise them. I hope, anyway.

I guess it really is true. California leads the nation. The Prop8 a$$maggots took voter rolls and intimidated businesses here in the state who contributed any money at all to the proposition for marriage between a man and a woman, and now your WI folks have followed suit. GO California!!! The Great Leader in all things Socialist.

Odd — these same liberals consider superglue in the locks of an abortion clinic to be terrorism.
RedBeard commented:
#12: Joscefi, that is a good way to address this thuggery. We shouldn’t reply in kind to thuggery, but making a statement like that would be perfect.
If any of the non-public employee union folks get upset, tough. They should have listened to their parents when they were told not to hang out with the wrong kind of people.
These public union goons are tarnishing the entire labor movement, and that’s a problem that organized labor has to address if they want to earn some credibility back. If they don’t want to distance themselves from the public trough unions, and would rather go down in flames of solidarity, that will be their choice.

I’d send all the bills for damages to the AFL-CIO and Organizing for America.

this is, i believe, how civil war is started. Let’s call it what it is now. Wisconsin is the first state of the union to have supporters of Walker threatened and intimidated and even vandalized. Neighbor against neighbor. It has become civil war. The only thing not happening yet is assignment of military uniforms, shooting, and taking of prisoners.
squeaky commented:
“These public union goons are tarnishing the entire labor movement,..” while jeopardizing the jobs of their private sector brothers and sisters. when a private employer suffers financial problems he will close business. not so for the public sector. the public sector weathers a downturn in the economy better as well as their employees.

Fred Barnes: Public-sector employees are the new fat cats
[John Edwards was right. There are two Americas, just not his two (the rich and powerful versus everyone else).
The real divide today is, on one side, the 20 million people who work for state and local governments and the additional 3 million who've retired with fat pensions. On the other, the rest of us, about 280 million Americans. In short, there's a gulf between the bureaucrats and the people.]

Join the TEA PARTY fighting the illegal immigration and migrant invasion
This is what the American people are up against from unconcerned legislators, which have been greedily indoctrinated with money for campaign contributions. Financial favors to keep the conveyor belt of illegal discount labor settling here. Not the fact that there are over 9 million Americans searching for jobs, but 8.5 million illegal aliens are employed by dirty employers. I don’t hesitate to say be a Whistle Blower and inform on companies, where labor there is suspiciously talking in foreign languages other than English. Although California is—THE—prime example, no State within the union is immune.
Just in the city of Los Angeles, Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich has just released data from the Department of Public Social Services which shows that in November 2010, $53 million in welfare benefits to foreign nationals. (Another $22 million dollars in CalWORKs and $31 million in Food Stamps) issued to illegal aliens for their instant U.S.-born children in Los Angeles County. I am beginning to wonder who our government has been working for. So this testimony amount is an increase of almost $3 million from November 2009, and represents 22 percent of all CalWORKs and Food Stamp issuance’s in L.A. County. SO QUESTION HOW MUCH IS THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION COSTING YOUR STATE?
America is losing its mind, when we cannot even support US born Americans or those who came to the US legally and have lost their job. We have our own people to care for, not the rest of the world. Every year my taxes go up in small increments and must be stupid if we don’t realize we are subsidizing large and small businesses. Later–Supervisor Antonovich told reporters: “When you add this to $550 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for health care, the total cost for illegal immigrants to county taxpayers exceeds $1.6 billion dollars a year — not including the hundreds of millions of dollars for education.” In 2003, the American Southwest saw 77 hospitals enter bankruptcy due to unpaid medical bills incurred by illegal aliens. An astounding 84 hospitals in California had been forced to close their doors because of the growing calamity. Similar occurrence took place in Arizona, because of the influx into this border State.
Hospitals which manage to remain open then passed the due amounts of money onto the rest of us, which translates into more out-of-pocket expenses and higher insurance premiums for all citizens and legal residents. I know for a fact that Contractor and those who sub-contract are using huge amounts of illegal labor, so noticeably they get the better of honest business owners. My cousin in Los Angeles hired a contractor to install a new Air Conditioner in the roof space. My cousin noticed neither laborer word spoke a word of English, so he confronted the Contractor for proof that these people were legal. The supervisor did have all the necessary insurance, but could not prove these workers were here legally. My cousin paid the man for the work done; later to find out half the duct work was not fitted properly. So this is what Citizens and residents are continuously fighting against–improper labor. Most of the duct work had to be re-installed, which ended up costing more money.
My choice was to join the local TEA Party as they are not part of either the Liberal-tax and spend-Democrats or the well entrenched Republican leadership. They are oriented towards saying no to any type of Amnesty passing, secret or otherwise, including Comprehensive Immigration Reform, The dream Act, visa lotteries or anything else that smells of amnesty, including chain migration and Sanctuary Cities or States. Bringing in highly skilled workers is a necessary evil, as they will be invaluable to America’s future economy. But we must impose zero-tolerance on economical labor, which is stealing the bread from the lowest income, blue collar and in many instances white collar in the labor market. Guest workers are not welcome, until the fraud and corruption is removed from this type of temporary employment. Without many exception, the taxpayers is the ceaseless beneficiary to dishonest business owners on a grand scale, as the taxpayer subsidizing the schooling for the children, health care for all family members and a wide array of other entitlement programs.
We must demand that E-Verify, 287 G. police training, Secure Communities criminal fingerprinting imposed throughout America, with dire criminal penalties on business that hire foreign labor. Unions are a major problem when it comes to hiring illegal labor, with SEIU Union boss Paul Trumka holding the steering wheel. The unions have seen a fall off in membership, so they are trying to pick up the slack with foreign nationals. Any company that knowingly hires foreign nationals (cannot be any doubt, when it’s over ten people with no papers) the CEO and head executives should go to prison, not pawns such as a human resources manager. It seems to me the sentences are not enough or the prison terms? When you have numbers ranging from a hundred to over three hundred foreign labor that is working, the company president should be seeing at least five years and fines over $250.000 dollars upwards.
What I am noticing more and more are patriotic workers finding the courage and initiatives to contact ICE agents. Corruption will never cease in Washington, until we introduce taxpayer election money only, as in European countries and limiting election cycles to three months. In addition to safeguard our votes we must make the federal government act, to rewrite election laws. We are being confronted by hundreds of thousands, may be millions of foreign national changing the outcome of elections through voter fraud. The administration MUST mandate that all voters must appear before an election officer with a legal Social Security Card, a valid driver’s license and/or an American Birth certificate that can be validated. Absentee ballots are the easiest form for illegal aliens to use fraudulently.
Investigate more true facts at NumbersUSA and not only fax federal and State lawmakers, but fax them for free on this site. To turn America around we must exert our own power against such ideologies as being “politically Correct” This country has worked just fine for over two and a half centuries, without being torn apart by Leftist dogma. We don’t need any foreign country or anyone else telling us how to run our country, especially the open border harbingers of overpopulation. If you come to America, it’s not by the invite of the US Government or any specific politicians; it’s by the permission of the American people only.

Supergluing locks? What’s next, tying shoelaces together? Dipping pigtails in inkwells? How juvenile. But then again, it’s the union goons. I guess we should find it refreshing they’re not out breaking legs and terrorizing kids left home alone.

They can boycott , but can the store ask for ID and refuse to sell food to pig union members ?

Let’s call this the union jihad against the private sector. Not a bad campaign angle, I think.

Libtards are all about freedom of “choice” when it comes to abortion. Not so much when it comes to anything else. They want to CONTROL and DICTATE where you shop, what you eat, what kind of lightbulbs you buy, what kind of cars you drive, what kind of energy you are forced to buy, what kind of healthcare you are forced to buy, what kind of politicians you are forced to support, etc. etc. etc. – Not so much freedom of choice there. They want to RUN your life!

The union thugs again show their true character. They say “we will punish you if you don’t kowtow to our demands”! They believe their way is the only correct way….This is domestic union TERRORISM and should be prosecuted as such.

All these comments show just how ugly things are becoming in a State where toleration was the norm. Thank you oh so much Scott Walker and the Fitzgeralds for turning Wisconsin into Illinois. What can you expect from someone you thinks Wisconsin should emulate a corrupt, toxic waste dump (New Jersey)
Both sides are disgusting. I always knew the democrats were cheap and sleazy, but the republicans have gone beyond the pale. They have all shown that they are unfit to hold public office. Wisconsin didn’t have a fiscal mess when serving in the legislature was acknowledged by everyone as part time employment and the governor was elected every two years. The people (voters) need to clear the temple of all career politicians
Scott Walker showed that he had no problem with dirty tricks when he ran for student body president while at Marquette (one of the reasons he was told to leave or so I’ve been told by those who know)
It probably was some liberal, but it could as easily have been a tea party activist. Extremism in defense of your ideology is not considered a sin by either side.
mlgm commented:
How do you know they didn’t do it themselves to gain sympathy? After all, the store owner threatened the boycotters with violence. More likely the store owners did it so they could get sympathy from the public. All stores I go to have security cameras at their entrances. Why not just pull it and catch who did it, unless of course they did it themselves.
apoxonbothyourhouses commented:
Oh by the way. Union thugs didn’t prevent the tea party form holding its rally at either Sheboygan restaurant. When the owners found out what was intended they informed the person making the reservation for a party of 45 to 60 that they allow political rallies at their restaurants. Neither restaurant could accomodate the size of the rally anyway. So it was moved to that white elephant, Blue Harbor. Talk about wasted tax dollars. Look it up if you don’t what I mean.
apoxonbothyourhouses commented:
Lastly, Scott Walker didn’t learn anything about how useless it is to give tax breaks to out of state corporations from Tommy Thompson who gave millions to American Motors trying to convince Chrysler to stay in Wisconsin. That really worked out well for Kenosha and the State. On his worst day Tommy was a smarter, cannier politician than Scott Walker can ever hope to be.
