Pro-Union activists using bullhorns and spit interrupted a quiet discussion in Vancouver, Washington, about right to work laws that would allow prevent workers from being forced to join unions.
The meeting had been convened by the Cascade Policy Institute of Portland and the Freedom Foundation of Olympia, Washington and was held at Clark Colleges Columbia Tech Center in Vancouver, Washington. As the meeting began, the pro-union protestors marched up and down outside, waving picket signs. Eventually, however, they moved inside to harass the participants more directly.
The protestors main tactic was to use bullhorns to shout down the meeting attendees. One of the protestors went so far as to spit on Vencent Vernuccio, a labor expert for the Mackinac Center for Public Policy and a keynote speaker.
It took police intervention to remove the protesters. Two of them were arrested for trespassing when they refused to vacate the building.

Same as the first civil war.
Had he spat on me, he would have learned that spitting on someone is assault and he would have still been looking for his testicles which would have been kicked back where they were before they dropped.
Two words for this, “Cattle Prods”!
I would also charge them with assault. Spit can be lethal.

I’ve seen them (heard them) in action. Absolute scum of the earth.
The unions are finished in this country. They’re dying the slow, British union’s death, only the teachers will retain any semblance of power.
Union thugs are such a class act — NOT.
I thought spitting was considered battery. There is DNA linked to someone’s home address. That would call for a home visit to square things up. By the police, I mean.
And yet Obamacare wants to use the likes of SEIU and Planned Parenthood as “navigators” for those people who want to sign up on the state exchanges.
Can you imagine having to give your IRS 1040, your medical records, your social security number, and the rest of your life history to these scumbags?
I wouldn’t say no, I’d say “HELL No!”
Same with bullhorns; even when "outside," how on earth can that EVER be allowed? Doesn't matter if it's a meeting of progressive dingbats, or Right-to-work conservatives, that's not civilized behavior. There's nothing difficult to understand about the irritation potential of very loud noise.
I think the answer to your question might have something to do with the answer to another, namely this: do the local police belong to a union?
Bingo.
In this day and age of HIV and drug resistant STDs. Yeah, I'd consider bodily fluids a potential lethal weapon.
Marxists and socialists assert the anarchic concept of freedom, which permits them to violate the freedom of speech of others, but claim that their own freedom of speech being violated when they are threatened with arrest for heckling and shouting down others. Double standard.
