They don't like to be called "thugs."
How about we call some of them "convicts"? Anyhow.. Some random phone videos..

The Detroit News captures union thugs tearing down an Americans For Prosperity tent during a protest against Michigan's new Right To Work law. h/t mrctv (15 comments) Comments >> By JGillman, Section News
Although I almost always mean our servicemen overseas, there is no doubt we have others to whom we will be indebted very soon.
The folks who are in the midst of the Freedom to work battle, and occupying the AFP tents. To the high power individuals who stepped up and put this over the top. To the folks who are in the midst of deliberations, and will have to endure the phone assaults, curses, and procedural tortures ad nauseum. And to our state police who will be expected to keep the peace with little or no help from Virg Bernero's personal security detail (the Lansing Police). To the folks at home giving strength to our besieged legislators. And last but not least, to the the workers who have endured the dignity robbing pain of supporting illicit and unacceptable political agendas of union leadership, simply for wishing to put food on their families' table. God bless you all tomorrow, and going forward.

Happy meals?
Apparently some of the protesters had no idea why they were there.

Many of you have seen the way in which many of the labor unions which do business in Michigan are teaming up and holding their own rallies in small to medium sized towns, but you may might not be sure exactly what is being said unless you go to one.
Our small group of perhaps 50 folks demonstrated for Right To Work outside the entrance of a rally in Petoskey on Sunday. While we held our ground outdoors, the teachers and other members of labor units attended one of these unification rallies inside. And even with a strong constitution, the thought of attending the emotion ginning affairs might be tough. Try holding your lunch while listening to old mobsters try to explain to the younger new union members that they have to be more aggressive, and stick together (to do something illegal). Listen to the custodian mom who has been getting dragged to each of these affairs because she is worried about her job, with the new legislation mandating bid process for off-education activities.
The tour of Michigan towns and villages according to our infiltrator at the Petoskey pro-union rally are getting mixed signals, and our message while standing outside the entrance to the event was perhaps internalized a little. People want the right to work in Michigan. When did we have to start asking permission? For the custodian mom, she is sure her job will be contracted out. She may well really think so, but the attendees are being done a disservice by the labor handlers of hers not also mentioning that her union could bid as well, taking a more entrepreneurial role. Hmmm, "entrepreneurial role" ... where have I seen THAT before? But I digress.. More as I have time through the day. (3 comments) Comments >> By grannynanny, Section News
The DFT has suspended this union activist for 7 months for interfering with the ceremony. It is interesting that they behave the same way at their own meetings as they do when slandering, belittling and intimidating the very citizens who provide the taxes to pay them. Thugs - all of them.
