It is idiotic to jail strikers. That has to be unconstitutional at some point. I mean, you own yourself. If you want to screw your employer and take a day off of your commitment to work for any reason, it is your right to do so without fear of criminal prosecution resulting in jail time. This is not slavery or indentured servitude.

Why can’t they just pass a law saying any teacher who walks out is automatically fired. At least that makes sense from a legal and constitutional viewpoint. How can you criminalize striking? I don’t understand this. It defies my understanding of our basic rights and freedoms under the US constitution.

Do you have a right to return to work after screwing your employer? H no! You SHOULD be summarily fired, and that is what the lawmakers should be passing. Not leaping to the lawless level of making striking a crime. That is absurd.

Oh ok, so you are denying due process by summarily firing?
