Were not condoning the allegations or arguing that union officials are completely immune from prosecution, said Jonathan D. Newman, a lawyer for the AFL-CIO. Instead, we simply want to make sure that the [federal law] is not interpreted in a way that could have a chilling effect on legitimate union activity.Let's not confuse making the goddamned criminals chill in jail, with creating an inappropriate chilling effect.

If unions really feel their perceived power lies in “civil disobedience” (or worse) lurking just below the surface, then this kind of chilling is worse to them than a cross to a vampire. It would be a great day when Congress passes, and the president signs, legislation that flat out bans the threat of crime by unions. Enmons had a loophole in it. Time to close that loophole tighter than a bass drum tuned to high C.

Let's not confuse making the goddamned criminals chill in jail, with creating an inappropriate chilling effect. If the goonion thugs are devolving to the point of stabbing, shooting and assualting others, make them "chill" in the morgue.
