Wisconsin: WSEU circulating boycott letters
Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel ^ | 3/30/11 | Don Walker

Members of Wisconsin State Employees Union, AFSCME Council 24, have begun circulating letters to businesses in southeast Wisconsin, asking them to support workers’ rights by putting up a sign in their windows.

If businesses fail to comply, the letter says, “Failure to do so will leave us no choice but (to) do a public boycott of your business. And sorry, neutral means 'no' to those who work for the largest employer in the area and are union members."

In other words, help us slice your throat slowly or we’ll do it quickly.

An anti-union boycott would seem an appropriate response and likely to have a lot more impact.

Hey Wisconsin! How are you liking this latest union thug tactic? If you don’t comply, I forsee a lot of “accidental” broken knee caps and vanalized store fronts, kind of like they did to your Capital.

Welcome to Obama’s Amerika!

A RICO suit may be in the union’s future... or damn well should be.

Interesting....the public union is attempting to damage the receipts of the sales tax and income tax.

A good reason to ban public unions.

In VA there’s a law against attempting to undermine a legitimately operating business. Sounds like WI lacks a similar law, or the unions feel they can ignore it

Big woop. These thugs needed to bus in out of state protestors to make there "Rally" look meaningful. Boycotts by the WSEU will mean little or nothing to businesses. There are just not enough of them in WI to make a difference.

This is the death throws of a toothless dinosaur.

Pure thuggery. Next the unionoids will be standing on sidewalks threatening patrons of these businesses.

This is only going to get far worse, especially considering the cops are part of the machinery.

It doesn't work in Northern VA. Korean-American gangs have been running a protection racket on Korean-American business owners for years throughout that area.

I wonder how much longer before these Union mobsters will resort to serious violence.
