   Those were some good days!

   “But here’s a great example of how “civil disobedience” can be framed if one is in the proper “workers of the world unite!” frame of mind.

   “….Administration reported that commercial aircraft have been radioed bogus commands 3 times since the strike began…….”

   What’s a few lives when we’re talking about our raises?

     I love the civility, saw the guy in Mass. go after the camera man and told him to get camera out of his face or “I’ll F&&& you in your A&&” real nice!! He was led away by capital police, charges still pending
