Labor Unions have become the Ku Klux Klan of yesteryear

By Oscar Y. Harward

It is becoming apparent that Labor Unions are losing more support in America. Now, Labor Unions and other radical left-wing groups have turned to intimidations as practiced by the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) of yesteryear.

The KKK first appeared in the South and practiced as a small group primarily following a bitter Civil War. That practice seemed to go away after some 10 to 20 years as America healed its’ wounds. The KKK reappeared in the 1920’s in a fight against Communism and any others whom KKK members believed to be attached to the Communist movement. Again, that activity seemed to decrease and/or just went away. After World War II, the KKK reappeared in a fight against the Civil Rights movement and specifically, the black community. It was after President John F. Kennedy appointed his brother, Robert Kennedy, who formed a task force made up of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigators. With that team, Robert Kennedy legally confronted the KKK. After some aggressive investigations, prosecutions, and convictions on felonious crimes, the KKK seemed to vanish in the late 1960’s and into the early 1970’s.

It appears that the intimidations have reappeared under the names of Labor Unions rather than under the names of the Ku Klux Klan. These terrorists do not wear robes, do not burn crosses, but the acts of intimidation terrors practice the same. These terrorists end up under the names as Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and others.

In May, 2010, some 500 screaming SEIU members went onto Bank of America’s General Counsel, Greg Baer’s personal property and even on his front porch terrifying his 14 year-old son who was at home alone.

In January, protestors went to the home of Dick Knapp, an executive developer of a new Walmart store in Washington, D.C.

On February 17, at 7:30 AM, some two dozen protestors swarmed onto Speaker of the House John Boehner’s personal home chanting messages. Folks, these are frightening intimidations.

These radical left-wing protestors went onto “personal property”. Where are the “main-stream’ Medias? Why are these acts of terror not the lead stories on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, the Washington Post, the New York Times, etc.? Where are President Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, and his FBI? If the main-stream Medias could create these accounts as conservatives intimidating liberals, there is no doubt that these stories would be the lead reports on a daily basis.

These radical left-wing protestors have decided to carry “Freedom of speech” beyond the business and political areas. These radicals are now imposing on personal properties as acts of terror. This continued activity will leave to deaths, either by the terrorists and/or the victims. It must end now!

Have we reached a time when Labor Union activities may be designated as acts of terror? Should their tax-status be re-evaluated and/or revoked? There is no room in a civil society for Labor Union activity or any other radical left-wing group(s) to deteriorate into history as the Ku Klux Klan.
