Indiana Official Wants "Live Ammunition" Used Against Wisconsin Protesters

A right-wing Indiana deputy attorney general called for the use of violence against protesters in Wisconsin on his personal Twitter account, Mother Jones reports. In reply to a Mother Jones staff tweet about "a report that riot police might soon sweep demonstrators out of the Wisconsin Cpitol Building - something that didn't end up happening," Jeff Cox tweeted Saturday night to Mother Jones' official Twitter account that the police should use "live ammunition." Given Cox's history of violent language, Cox's statements are under review by the attorney general's office.

Lets make sure we also review all of the violent language that the other side has been using, in Mass. and on the signs the protesters have carried, in N.Y., etc.
