@freemo unions for the win
@realcaseyrollins while i normally have no problem with unions (assuming they are voluntary).. in the case of police i dont think they should have a right to unionize
@freemo @realcaseyrollins Agreed. Taxpayers are the customers and the employers. We *are* the police union. Any union they form separately is in direct opposition to the general public they're meant to serve.
I wouldnt say thats the reason.. I mean im ok with govt employees like a mailman having a union.
I just dont think people who have qualified immunity should have access to unions that can protect them from proper scrutiny and disciplin.
@freemo @realcaseyrollins Uh, I don't want mailmen to have a union. Then my mailman can just start burning my mail and the union will protect him from being fired.
@LouisIngenthron @freemo The pro union talking point would be that then they can't fight for better pay and work accommodations (I'm not pro union btw, just sayin)
@realcaseyrollins @LouisIngenthron
I dont see how you can be antiunion and proconstitution... you are saying people cant talk and coordinate amongst eachother? I mean even blocking police unions is muddy water in my head
@freemo @LouisIngenthron Hmm? That same argument could be made about gangs...
"I dont see how you can be antigangs and proconstitution... you are saying people cant talk and coordinate amongst eachother?"
I mean as long as those gangs arent doing anythi g legal, yea, a "gang" has every right to exist and is perfectly protected by the law.
In reality gangs imply illegal acts though so...
@freemo @LouisIngenthron My point being that organizations are not inherently owed the ability to exist just because the members talk to each other
@realcaseyrollins @LouisIngenthron
What are you making illegsl thrn.. people can unionize without the union formally existing, as long as everyone cooperates
@freemo @LouisIngenthron Ah allow me to rephrase; companies and organizations should be allowed to bust up unions (companies should be allowed to have unions if they want them though)
@realcaseyrollins @LouisIngenthron
So how are they allowed to bust up unions.. if someone company suspects you and bill talked to eachother and told eachother each of your salaries, sk now the lower paid of you can gondemand a raise... can thry say those twonpeople just unionized and fire them both? When does it count as a union?
@freemo @LouisIngenthron hmm this is a good question, and I don't have the answer.
On the other hand, are you good? I'm noticing an unusual amount of typos from you in this thread
@realcaseyrollins @LouisIngenthron
Im on my phone. Fat fingers
@realcaseyrollins @LouisIngenthron
The only kind of stroke im having is a stroke of genius :)
@freemo @LouisIngenthron gotcha, just wanted to check in case you were having a stroke or sumn
