Re: Toronto on strike: They want to work, but their union won’t let them [ National Post ]
You know, if these union heads are gonna call anyone who disagrees with them “scabs,” I propose we call them a bunch of cunts. Why? Because if they want to resort to childish name calling, might as well fight back with one of the few words in the English language that still holds some shock value.
