My oh my, is the radical far left union base trying to pull off a coup?
I was referring to you, a 100% pro-union poster, as well as those public servants whom are unionized and would be breaking contract by joining OWS, not the military. Reading is fundamental.
Bullets are flying over Broadway -- and everywhere else in the city.
