VIDEO: A part-time Menomonee Falls firefighter is facing criminal charges for a Facebook post threatening Gov. Scott Walker. Wisconsin State Capitol Police got the call March 8 reporting an alarming post on Facebook that read, "I suggest we take all our firearms to the governor's mansion and execute the parasite." It was a comment on the campaign page for state Rep. Dana Wachs, of Eau Claire, a Democrat running for governor. Police traced the post to a Menomonee Falls firefighter, 45-year-old Nicholas Hager of Lannon. Hager wasn't home when Capitol police went to his house to find him, but he did agree to meet them at the Lannon Police Department March 8.
