"While we are at it, do you guys think that property destruction and violence by American union members is "infantile" and "juvenile"? Are strikers "spoiled brats"? Chuck" When striking coal miners slash the tires and throw rocks thorugh the windows of scabs..well that kind of makes sense. Scare enough scabs, they can't take your job and the company has a harder time busting your union. Most people don't like violence and only turn to it when their livelihood is on the line. A bunch of anarcoids kids and similarly black clad Peter pans smashing in cafe windows because you think the whole spectacle of it will bring down capitalism... um no thats stupid. If you really want to be useful and fight capitalism through property destruction I'd suggest the black bloc hires themselves out as roving "union goons" for particularly bitter labor strikes, like the old Detroit newspaper strike. You all might have been useful then. --- Msg sent via VCCS WebMail
