My family was involved in the West Virginia Union coal mine wars.   They still have the weapons saved after the US army and its airplanes won that war.

My father was a member of the Hoisting and Portable Engineers for his entire life. 


I have graduated from the U of O Law School Labor law course.  I also studied it as a undergraduate in Political Science courses. 

I am well-versed in the 'real' unions and their accomplishments and the self-serving unions of SEIU 503 and AFSCME.


I was required as a condition of State of Oregon employment to be a member of SEIU 503 for over 12 years.  I saw their emphasis up front and personal.  They most closely resemble a Mafia crime family.  



Extortion through strike threats, insider dealing with 'management' and protection of their weaker workers and those arrested and even found guilty of crimes is their current hallmark.  


Your condescension is noted and ignored


I stand by my previous opinions.

(What does Trump have to do with it?)
