I feel like people forgot that this was the compromise.
If they’d like us to go back to dragging the boss out of his home in the middle of the night and beating him to death in front of his family I’m cool with that.
get luigi a 1up
I keep thinking of the scene in Far and Away where they torch the manor house.
Oh, wow.
That went after the cops, too.
That was really fucking stupid of them, you reward your foot soldiers just well enough to make them trust the system enough to defend it with their lives against their own class.
You let the cop “union” thrive and they’ll kick every teacher to death on their overtime pay with gusto.
Probably don’t have to pay them, they’ll do it for free.
What they want is not pay, but the ability of harassing minorities.
General strike from teachers, firefighters and police it is, then.
Don’t count on cops for solidarity, even with something this blatant.
They should strike anyways.
Unions, collective bargaining and striking were illegal, to begin with. People actually skipped work and meals to strike, form unions, and radically protest to give us these things. Before pto, unemployment insurance, and social safety nets existed.
Time for these cretins to get a history lesson first hand on why there are labor laws in this country. Why there is a forty hour work week. Why there is collective bargaining. Why its keeping them(the management) alive.
There isn’t management for these jobs though. The people are the management. Both sides of the table are the same in the public sector.
That’s now how this works. Time to beat the Governor to death.
I love picturing this being said matter of factly from a husband to a spouse over morning coffee.
“Oh no, well that’s now how this works at all… Time to beat the Governor to death, dear. Well, off I go for the day, see you at dinner”
Banning police unions is a no brainer.
Banning police unions is a no brainer.
they’re downright fucking evil, a hideous example of what a union should be doing. they protect the worst of the worst and keep the city and force paying for their bullshit. and they show no solidarity to other unions.
They are actually a classic example of what unions do.
lolol sure thing bud
It’s spelled “lol”
Easy block, nothing of value to be had from this dude trying to spell check “lolol”
^ name checks out
Don’t worry the Federal government will step … Oh they just crippled the agency that prevents this. How convenient.

Union prevent heads in sticks, time for heads on sticks
Honestly surprised by cops being included in this. Wonder if that will bring major backlash in such a conservative state.
Narrator: it won’t. They are too far gone with the indoctrination. They’ll lament and get back in line, to cheer for the next one who got fucked that isn’t them
You forgot that they’ll also all go to Church on the weekend and tell each other what good people they are. Was it not Jesus who said, “No unions on my watch, pal.”
My only surprise is they didn’t add nurses and doctors after that show of force went down, state wide, in Oregon this year.
That’s a good way to keep people out of a profession.
Well, one win out of three isn’t bad for Utah :o
He included police unions? He’s fucked. Republican voters don’t give a crap about teachers or firefighters, but he messed with the cops that they vehemently pretend to support.
I think the Presudwbtsxrejease of rioters who attacked police officers on Capitol Hill made it pretty clear to cops that the GOP was never actually on their side.
They originally tried to exempt police unions but were told that would be too blatantly illegal and the whole thing would be struck down, so they did this instead.
that would be too blatantly illegal
Unlike 90% of the other shit they’re doing…
Whoa, is that speculation or in the article somewhere?
Here’s the original text of the bill, you can see the original text stricken out:

This was from the bill they introduced last year to do the same thing.
God damn! This is insane 😮💨
My money is the police unions will just ignore this; or even more on brand, they’ll invent some new with that just means collective bargaining, but only for police.
