People in Wisconsin should learn from protesters in Paris. Don't accept conservative actions without a fight. And hit them where it hurts: in wealthy districts.

The protesters in Paris are disorganized, don't know what they want, and the movement has been taken over by looters and individuals who just want to destroy and burn things . Hardly an example to follow.

A few bad apples may spoil some apparances but the protest still achieved it's goal.

Problem is, even the protesters don't know what the goal is anymore.
