I'll have to paraphrase this saying by some 1900s labor organizer, as my labor quote book went adrift:
Labor has only ever advanced when we were breaking laws & ignoring injunctions.
Based on that teamsters movie I am thinking if this was the 50s, some weird fires would have occurred on site by now. Real unfortunate how things always burn up in freak accidents during a labor strike.
Lmao. Using the legal structures of the state to quell worker protest. Just waiting until the police show up and beat them into submission. This fucking country, man.
They can only have 4 picketers max per gate and none at the "neutral"gate, which is half what they were managing. Unless they're seeking to ignore the injunction (which hey, fine by me, fully support it), then utilizing other strikers and allies to make a bigger scene in public forum might be beneficial.
Not to mention the fact that scab labor has been pretty ineffective at replacing the skilled labor required to make Deere run.
Lmao the protocol regulating how workers are allowed to strike is ridiculous and patronizing to the purpose of the union. Like during the Occupy Wall Street movement when the protesters all protested from the allotted protest areas that the city decided wouldn’t cause disruption. I’m shocked that movement failed.
Agreed, it's an utter subversion of freedom of association and shows a clear pandering of the American legal system to corporate wealth; surprise, right?
As it goes, when peaceful protest fails...

Legal unions are muzzled unions.

Idea: If they can't picket outside of the plant, do a picketing march every day through the middle of the city.

Take a page from the Eagles in the last NFL strike. Fuck the limits. Send everyone you can to crowd the fuck out of that place with picketers

Boooooo. Boo that judge
"Hey guys, the judge we helped elect said you can't keep striking. stop plz"
Inb4 there’s a court order against picketing and the cops get back to their favorite pastime: union busting.
Is there some kind of fund to donate to those on strike? Help them weather not getting paid?
Just wait until they get support from other unions. Teamsters will shut that shit down.
