Picketing Some Dudes House?

The SCAB is an opportunist that is stepping into a disagreement between the company and its workers. The SCAB is a thief, stealing a workers source of income which in return directly effects the employee's family. IMHO the SCAB is lucky he is not being shot at by the strikers. Instead he or she is a thief who is embarassed at being caught stealing by people who wish to expose his or her actions and hold him or her accountable in some way for his or her dispicable action.

Would you have mercy on a thief?

I say no way!

:down:

No wonder union membership (other than government employees) continues to decline.

Thuggery went out of style in the 1930s.

The AMFA SCABVan picketers are lucky they haven't been shot, tresspassing on the guy's driveway.
 
To embarass a SCAB by exposing his actions to his neighbors is not thuggery.

Bullshit! FWAA do you get back up after someone attacks/hits you? Or do you just sit on the ground and hope you don't get struck again?

My point is that AMFA and the SCAB VAN are bringing the battle to another front. And why not? Do you or the SCABS being picketed think that once they leave the airport their morals return? No they don't. Once you urinate on your principles there is no turning back. Sure, the urine may evaporate but the stench will always remain.

This is not "thuggery" this is tell others that a SCAB is present. I am friends with my neighbors. We all work in different professions. I have had them in my house as friends at partys. But if I found out that one had SCABBED I would shun them like the plaque. Is that "thuggery"? No. That is unionism!

Sorry you don't agree with reality. Perhaps you can just stay sitting on the ground and allow others willing to fight against greed & evil to do so without your cowardly comments.

Why do you differenciate between Unions and ( other goverenment Employees Unions ) ?

And your comment about being "shot ??" etc.. you need therapy......... anger management at the very least.... you are a very sick troubled little boy!

are these houses being picketed managers & supervisors homes? i suspect they are because those are the only addresses strikers may have (because all worked together over the years.) IMHO management working on company aircraft after the union walked out is not scabbing & neither is private companies under contract to northwest to do a job

A scab is a scab. Working on struck work makes you a scab regardless of whatever excuse you can come with.

BTW...finding an address os a scab is easy.

No I have to agree with FWAA on this one.

However picketing, which is a form of free speech is not thuggery. The fact is that the airlines have stifled free speech at the airports. Picketers are limited to the size of the group and kept way off to a less visable site. So if they try to hide the picketers from the customers whats wrong with picketing at the scabs houses. Like I said the company sends stuff to the wives of strikers, what gives them the right to try and intimidate workers families? Free speech gives them that right.

By the way it was the companies that introduced thuggery into labor relations, not the workers. Check your facts FWAA, company hired goons have killed scores of workers, most unarmed, Ludlow, Haymarket, Ford, etc.

Just as union members use peer pressure, companies now rely on economic violence to intimidate workers, pictures of company hired goons beating down a father as his children cry would be a PR disaster for the company and too much for the sensationalist press to let slide .
 
The AMFA STRIKERS are being way too nice in my opinion. If this was the 1930's, that SCAB's house would have been torched! 😉

Yeah,you can sit back and be self-righteous because you already have your early retirement in your pocket.Don't be complaining when ALL airline pensions are thrown into the PBGC as a result C11 filings by the majors.
Have you ever heard of the right to free speech and it is not restricted just to airport terminals.The news media sets up encampments outside of high profile people's houses all the time.
People should not even think that they can cross picket lines without some type of consequense for doing so.
The union is already viewed by people like you as bunch of lowlifes so picketing in front of someones house will not affect their image at all.

I retired with no pension, just flight bennies, I was in management and knew the score. I went elsewhere and much more money in a much more stable industry.

Free speech is fine, doing it on private property to a non public official with the intent to intimidate is WRONG. You can twist the words all you want, you can run all the cognitave dissonance in the world, but, in your heart, you know its wrong.

And so does the majority of Americans, who are mostly non-union.

It ain't 1940, and Jimmy Hoffa is long dead, so is this kind of crap.

You'd like to think so, but it's not true. During the Caterpillar strike in the 1990s, Vance Security - the same company NWA has been using - sent thugs around to intimidate the families of strikers and their union leaders.

Some were shown pictures of their spouse or children taken as those family members went about their daily lives; the message was "We can hurt them if we want and you can't protect them".

Several of the most effective picket line leaders just happened to get 'mugged' at about the same time.

I suppose those unmarked vans full of 'soldier of fortune' wannabes that have been hanging around the AMFA picket lines are just there to support the guys with the cameras?

Compared to that, an open informational picket is positively benign, particularly when the police are there to observe.

We are always on public property.
Orderly and considerate to the neighborhood.
Professionalism is the order of the day.
We are not thugs but exercising our right to free speech.
If the individual is ashamed of his actions he might want to modify his behavior.
