Typical Union actions since the very beginning. Nothing new here to see move along....

I'm going to have to ask my MSP buddy what the H, for supposedly having 200 troopers on site there were no police around this tent area which was an obvious emotional hot spot (at least that I could see)?

After the tent was torn down, they started cutting of sections of canvas as "souvenirs"

As if this is actually news. We all know Unions are nothing but communist thugs and agitators. Typical lefties engaging in typical leftie behavior. We can't get our way so we'll hurt you and throw a tantrum like the immature selfish bastards we are.

Unions my arse. All they unite is communism and organized crime.
They need scrapped.

I've been in a few altercations with "card holding members" while working as a scab. It isn't fun. I also knew a lot more union members who didn't give any care at all to me not signing up. Given the choice I avoided signing up for the Laborers Local 1191 as long as possible but I was eventually caught on a jobsite by the union rep who shut the job down until a few us either left the jobsite or signed up. I got a job in my career career field after college and am no longer a member of Local 1191.

FN unions

Any union members here ? Are you are proud of your brothers ? Or are you the same way ?

And personelly I would have stayed in fat boys face and kept him yelling for another minute or two so I could see him stroke out

I don't understand that do you mind explaining it for me?

I have few friends who refuse to join unions and all that really happens to them is they get passed over for promotion, isolated at work and they get a lot of grief from union members.

PS what was all that shouting about "he's got a gun" and "I've killed plenty of people with a gun"
Personally i wouldn't have backed off like the poor guy who got attacked. I would have laid into him with with all the fury of a proud working class youth. These Docs aren't just good for walking you know.

It's no different from the hatred, riots and bloodshed of the Tea Party rallies. Two sides of the same coin.

I read that somewhere ...

Being an engineer and having to work around labor regulations and unions is a complete royal pain in the arse.

I hope Michigan passes Right to Work.

I hope Michigan passes Right to Work.

We did. Now we are waiting for the governor's signature.

I hope Michigan passes Right to Work.

It's a done deal.

As much as I agree with most of the above thoughts... remember not all Unions are the same...OK all private sector Unions might be, but not all Unions.

Why was that guy attacking the UNION members

Obviously he wanted to break their fingers so they couldn't read the paper or play cards on the clock...he just figured his jaw was the best tool for the job. Maybe if he had consulted one of the many shop stewards probably in attendance (sick day anyone?), he might have been given another suggestion.

Speaking of tools...
