    I think that new union did a very idiotic thing by promising the workers a 200% wage increase. First rule ever is don't make promises you can't make happen/ keep.

    That's a mindset brought about by the same people who promised "free shit for all eternity".

    Worst part is that these people essentially took bullets for union bosses who we all know couldn't give two shits about workers.

    Sorry for belated reply got roped in to help with a spreadsheet.

    It is reassuring to hear you view on the subject, I just wish more people would go in there and post this so it doesn't feel like its just me and that when I get attacked (and the tk O.o) other will come in and say "hey fuck you". But yeah.

    Appalled that the police opened fire, or that they where forced to or appalled by the mentality of your countrymen?

    I haven't seen the footage yet, but if what I'm reading has any merit (The people being armed with pangas and the like), my fellow countrymen need to seriously take a hard look at themselves... If people have grievances over wages (sometimes it is warranted), there are ways to handle said grievances, pangas and whatever they were armed with, is not one of those ways...

    I need to see the footage though...
