BREAKING: Hate speech in WI

xxxxxxx,
It was revealed yesterday that, as a law student, Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Rebecca Bradley made some of the most vicious and hateful comments about the LGBT community Ive ever heard.
I'm not going to repeat them. That's how bad they were. But I will tell you this: Hate speech has no place in our states highest court. It raises serious questions about Justice Bradleys fitness to serve.
Its equally troubling that Governor Walker appointed her to three judgeships in the past three years.
Wisconsinites deserve better. Join me in telling Justice Bradley that hate speech has no place on Wisconsins Supreme Court.
I believe the justices who preside over Wisconsins Supreme Court should have impeccable credentials, a high moral aptitude, and a record of integrity.
We elect these justices to 10-year terms. Weve seen their decisions affect our labor laws, voting rights, and civil liberties. Rebecca Bradley is up for election in three weeks.
Wisconsinites need to be confident that justices on the bench can be impartial and fair, and Justice Bradleys statements do not inspire such confidence.
We have every right to question whether Justice Bradley can uphold the principle that all Americans are created equal under the law. Add your name to denounce her hateful, intolerant statements.
Thank you,
Tammy
