pinko Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 Any scab deserves scorn. Anyone who advocates violence in labour disputes deserves even more of it, and anyonewho performs acts of vilence in labour disputes deserves unemployment, and jail. Yes and if you have followed any strike of recent you will know that acts of violence result in arrests whether on the picket line or otherwise. Quote
Jack Weber Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 You don't even know what I think of unions, you hypocrite and imbecile. Yes, it takes an hypocrit to whine "what about people who don't want to corss picket lines" and "there is no right to work" in the same sentence. It takes an imbecile to say that this issue has any similarity with segregation. Anybody who engages in something lawful should not be in put of physical harm for doing so. But let's be frank, shall we? As your imbecilistic reference to segregation proves aplenty, this is not about a right to work YOU say does not exist. It is about enabling employers to exploit workers. Have at least the intellectual honesty to admit it, will you? And if it were about workers being safe at work, you would not be advocating measures that make the workplace less safe of an environment. Bsides, if you knew what you are talking about (you are proving constantly that you don't), you would know I was talking about employer abuse not in the 19th century, but well into the 20th and, in same parts of the world with the kind of work standards you can only dream of, well into the 21th century. Enough time wasted with your idiocy. Ignored. SPOT ON!!!! RTW has never been about the individual rights of workers,like the NAM gives a furry rats hind quarters about that!!!... No,it's about the COLLECTIVE attack on the organized labour to drive down costs and regain the power and control dynamic in workplace... People like Don Blankenship,for example,are strong advocates of RTW... Google that piece of work...He's an O'Learyite!!! Quote The beatings will continue until morale improves!!!

Correct.. The days of picket line free for all's are pretty much over... Tha days of the cops standing by watching a brawl happen have ended... What my opinions of the rat scum that would cross a picket line while their is legal job action going on (strike or lockout) stand,however...

pinko Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 Mob mentality on full display. How so? Have you ever been on a picket line? Quote
jefferiah Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) How so? You are demonizing someone for not going along with the group. That he is a scab is enough for you to hate him. You have your groupthink stance, and you and Weber have both shown you wish violence on such people based upon that ideology. Some brotherhood!

Jack Weber Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 You are demonizing someone for not going along with the group. That he is a scab is enough for you to hate him. That person is stealing a job at,most likely,a lower rate of pay while someone is sacrificing their livlyhood on a picket line for something better... That person is a union buster,and an agent of those who want to weaken the strength of organized labour,whether they understand that ,or not. That person has come from the outside,with the express intent of getting paid to bust the union of people who are in a legal strike positon,or have been locked out...

CANADIEN Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 I notice you avoided my question. Have you ever been on a picket line? I have. And I have said often enough to strike-breakers they should be ashamed of themselves. I do not need references to baseball bats, or to lower myself to calling them scum. Quote
Jack Weber Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 It is not a relevant question. What is your social insurance number and which hand do you write with? Oh...I remember you from the summer... Your the guy who thought it was OK for you to be employed by a unionized company but not pay union dues.. I said no way,and you said it was an infringemnet on your "rights".. I said then you must be an advocate of RTW..You said you were'nt then you went on about how we needed this type of legislation to protect your "rights"??? Have I got it wrong???

That such individuals would undermine their brothers and sisters on the picket line leads me to my opinion of these low lifes. Edited March 7, 2011 by pinko Quote

Enough time wasted with your idiocy. Ignored. Bwahahahahahaha!!! I love it, he still advocates violence toward replacement workers but at the same time bringing up workplace abuses by management!! So was it all right for black people to be beaten with bats for eating at a white only restaurant during jim crow? You seem to believe so since you and your ilk advocate baseball bat beatings for replacement workers. This reminds me of 1984, everyone is equal, some are more equal than others!!

Scotty Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 Usually the argument goes that if Unions were not around we would be still working 12 hour days, 6 days a week for a pittance. I have been hearing from union advocates about the amazing wages and benefits that unions have brought us ad nauseum. You can't argue it both ways. Either there are amazing wages and benefits because of Unions or there are not. Which is it? I can argue since I've never made any claim of 'amazing wages and benefits', nor has any other person on this thread defending unions. Unions have been responsible for a general improvement in wages, benefits and working conditions over the past century. That is not really debatable. And as the percentage of unionized workers has shrunk, those benefits and wages and rights are being rolled back. To repeat: The minimum paid vacation for an American workers is NOTHING. It is the only country in the western world that miserly towards workers. Meanwhile, in those socialist hellholes, workers can count on 5, 6, 7, 8 weeks of vacation each year. Poor bastards! Quote It is an inverted moral calculus that tries to persuade the world to demonize one state that tries its civilized best to abide in a difficult time and place, and rides merrily by the examples and practices of dozens of states and leaderships that drop into brutality every day without a twinge of regret or a whisper of condemnation. - Rex Murphy
