please forgive this news repost, but this is truly amazing news and it must really get circulated

police, ordered to remove protestors from the state capitol buildings in wisconsin, instead marched into the building and announced solidarity.

in an impassioned speech, one of the 'cops for labor', said that when he signed up he took an oath "to protect and serve the members of our community", and that therefore that is what they were going to do!

original story, and and link to youtube at  http://redantliberationarmy.wordpress.com/2011/02/26/breaking-wisconsin-police-have-joined-protest-inside-state-capitol/
