Notice who are the violent ones at the townhalls?

[Fieldmouse]

Noticed how the Dems are organizing their groups at the their own townhalls, stacking the audience and creating violence. Anyone surpised at this? Anyone surprised "We The People" are being subjected to union thugs now?

Remember though, this is an excellent deal right? VC will tell you it is and long over due despite only 16% of Americans believe our healthcare is in crisis.

what you see is the 60's generation, half think they will get something for nothing and the other half think they have to pay for it . You young guys just think about yours and your families future and do what is necessary. In twenty years most of these guys,including myself will be dust. The US will be a different ,maybe not better ,but a very different place.

what union you talking about most unions members disagree with this health care plan

[FlDeerman]

Have to agree,don't paint with such a wide brush.My old union(retired)members are against the health care plan.

i agree as well. for one thing unions are not thugs like they are sterio typed as they are organized and do not strong arm people . they might stand as a large group when they rally about a subject but they can not protest in any violant mannor or the union is subject to being fined and members have to pay fines plus inprisonment if they do any violent actions as a union.
I feel that people are starting to speek up to these actions that the goverment is just throwing out to the american people . Americans lost enough to the actions of our elected officials and the busnesses that took the money and ran with it just so the working class could pay back the money for generations to come.
yes I am a union member and I am retired if you want to know.
So when you point a finger at the unions who helped each one in the usa over generations of standing up to our rights and who helped you make the income you get so you would not live like slaves to this country or a busness who will reep off your blood just to grab a million $.
but for a union to go and strong arm people at these halls i think not

Sir, with all due respect, I don't want to debate on whether or not, or on in which industries we need unions, but the unions are a big problem in the country. Part of that problem is that many union members, and just about all retired union members, assume that the unions can do no wrong. Just like your comment above; by denying that it could be union thugs strong arming people, you are the one stereotyping.

To deny flat-out that unions don't bully people is a joke. In most union shops the leaders make it very clear what you should vote for and what you should support. To deny this is ludicrous.

I'd say it's much more believable that the union workers are strong-arming the seniors that have showed up to these town halls to speak their mind. Why else would the unions show up? Everyone knows the viewpoint of the union members; it's what ever their union bosse tells them it is.
