What is local police obligated to do? What are the orders from Portland's mayor?

@4:

Naw, hopefully public unions will do the obvious thing: if someone desn't want to pay union dues to be represented, fine; just don't expect to have their job protected by a collective bargaining agreement. If they're such a bootstrapping, union-hating individualist, they can just march themselves right into their boss' office and negotiate their own wages and working conditions. I mean, that works every time, right?

@7

Don't you worry little fella, those corporate donations are going to keep rolling in.

Nobody's going to have to worry about merit or issues, they're just going to follow the agenda of their corporate donors.

@10 I see the nursing home is letting you rant on the internet again. They really need to keep you sedated more often.

@6

The anti-labor movement is playing the long game. Companies will just provide uniform pay grades and benefits for all employees, union or not, and make sure everyone knows it, too.

This ruling would kill Unions as we know them in the US, if they hadn't already been dead for 37 years.

Hmph, that was meant to be @5.

Calling for the disbandment of ICE is truly a misguided policy. Removing illegal aliens with deportation orders in place is their main purpose. They may be a violent felon or a nonviolent offender with active deportation orders. I could not imagine that the people calling for this to take place actually want the laws of our country to go unenforced, or do they? Perhaps they do. ICE also inspects cargo, investigates and apprehends those seeking to illegally smuggle contraband into the US. There is PLENTY for them to do, so leave them alone and let them do their job. They have been heckled as of late and protest camps set up at their facilities, where the operative slogan from the protesters is to declare them to be Nazis. Believe me, the ONLY people acting like Nazis are the protesters,as they attempt to foment anarchy, just as the early Nazis commonly did.
