Gooney,
Yes, some new names around. Yours included!
Typical tactic. When presented with an argument you don't like, go straight for the credibility of the opponent. Anyone disageeing with you is either a "Union Buster" or a company stooge.
It's an effective mind-set because it means you can go your merry way and ignore well meaning critisism from anyone else.
My major problem with the ban was and remains that it won't work, will fragment your union, and will create a class of scapegoats who will be blamed for its' failure.
Are you under the impression that the ban alone will get the 49ers their jobs back? If not what else is HKAOA doing? If nothing, why is an ineffective strategy which weakens the union and victimises younger pilots being pursued?
But then don't listen to me. I have a different point of view, so I must be a "Union Buster" mustn't I?
