El Presidente elaborates on a Complete Colorado exclusive: official 911 audio of Republican operative Matt Milner being threatened for recording a public event featuring newly selected U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and sponsored by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
Sure, our union goons aren’t as bad as Michigan union goons or New Jersey union goons. But they sure aren’t making a good name for themselves with this story. El Presidente asks:
Are these thuggish tactics–employed by a Democrat constituency, big labor–indicative of what we as Coloradans should expect to influence a vote on EFCW, and a window into things to come with a Democrat win in 2010?
In any case, I bet Mr. Milner won’t be so inclined to show up in the union hall with a camera next time.

Great post. Once again, union thugs running amuck.
New plan: plan to call a fellow op from inside the even to be recorded and let them record it on the other end of the line. If thugs catch you, good luck getting the tape! Done, finished, union is toast. 😉
