You do realize MLK was a staunch Republican... For good reason.

Google it.

I love it when people only consume right-wing media and then claim that the mainstream media doesn't cover the stories they care about.

If these people ever paid attention to something other than right-wing media, they might realize that it's safe to come out of that right-wing echo chamber they live in.

You obviously didn't watch too well.

Nope not even a day in jail.
Protected by the Supreme Court


Unions protected from prosecution by Supreme Court opinion (US v Enmons)



Exemption from prosecution for union violence.
The most egregious example of organized labor’s special privileges and immunities is the 1973 United States v. Enmons decision. In it, the United States Supreme Court held that union violence is exempted from the Hobbs Act, which makes it a federal crime to obstruct interstate commerce by robbery or extortion. As a result, thousands of incidents of violent assaults (directed mostly against workers) by union militants have gone unpunished. Meanwhile, many states also restrict the authority of law enforcement to enforce laws during strikes.

From Wikipedia: The case involved a labor strike in which union members fired rifles at three utility company transformers, drained the oil from another, and blew up an entire company substation. The labor union in question was seeking a higher-pay contract and other benefits from their employer, the Gulf States Utilities Company. The Court decided that the union involved was immune from prosecution because their violent acts were in pursuit of a legitimate union objective.



Kinda shocking isn't it....


Who knew... Not you.

So, by your logic; if Crowder had been murdered, then there would have been arrests made! Really?

I guess union thugs have "get out of jail free" cards for assault and battery. Good to know, and I feel so much better now.


Yes they do. Believe it or not.
Organized crime, has been centered around unions for 100 years.

The worst part of it all is that he gave, as in free, hotdogs to some of those union clowns and then when he went to help the women in the tent they flattened, some of the same guys went after his method of earning a living. I love to hear his voice and listened carefully to him three times on Fox this evening.

Ah looky here folks. Another left leaner making noises trying to protect those union people. i guess he just doesn't realize that the crowd of 12,000 people were union protesters for the new law. Oh well, he listens to Fox all the time but doesn't pay any attention to what they say.

What all did Mathews show? I'll bet he didn't show any of those union thugs standing on the tent after they tore it down, did he? How much did you say you really know about that thing from watching both sides? Nothing from Fox unless we tell you about it, right?
