PICKET LINES MEAN DON'T CROSS!

by Jesse Burns
What it says above!
Picket lines mean don't cross!!!! End of story! A scab is still a scab, who is still a scab. What will it take for your jerkoff reactionaries to learn when the power of labor flexes its muscles.....regardless of the union beauracrats.........then you better listen! Or else you will get introduced to Mr.Baseball Bat! Now who's Mr.Baseball Bat you might ask? Mr.Baseball Bat is a widely known tool used earlier in the 20th century to send a life and death message to the bosses and their supporters. That message basically was "STEP BACK!". Apparently the whining hippies, swine, and other despicable types haven't learned that lesson yet. Well I say thats too bad. I remember when I used to live in Martinez during the Safeway strike when I was still in High School about '95. A worker put a scab in the hospital. Think on that before you take on that new job scab f*ckers! My own dad was union in the post office. So again. STEP BACK! Or else its Mr.Baseball Bat time again!

Sincerely,
part time trotskyist.

Part time trot...what the @#%^ does that mean? So you were in high school in '95, eh? I guess that means you've been an activist for a long long time and we should bow to your many years of experience on the picket lines. You obviously know what you're talking about and your self righteous anger comes from those many many years of throwing your body against the system. So glad to have you on our side.

my union went on strike recently for a day, and someone else who was actually an unpaid intern type replaced my job tasks for the day and complained and called me irresponsible, and said that they hadn't had to pressure him into it (and he wasn't paid) but he was acting like it was something like everyone having to chip in to do the tasks involved in the group picnic or cleaning up the bathroom and the lunchroom, where everyone has to cooperate to get the work done.
