It worries me because of the connections these people have, the large numbers, and the detailed plans.

They're loud. They make a lot of noise. They talk big. Actually, there's not as many of them as you think. Unions hold only about 12% of the population. The rest are just followers who know not what they do, and would easily back off once they see the unions are hurting them as well as all the other innocent tax payers in the U.S. Their power lies with campaign contributions - it's the politicians they own.
They're selling vinegar. They're sour. They're bitter. They don't make good neighbors. They're unlikable. I think people will turn against them. They're going too far.

To: concerned about politics

One of the leftist’s tactics is to make people think there are more of them than there really are.

At a townhall meeting, if you have as few as THREE people, you can overwhelm the crowd. Assuming the stage/focal point is North, station one at each point of the other compass points. If you have four people, put one down front, too.

Then, a person makes a conservative point, each of them shouts, boos, or whatever and the middle of the audience has the illusion of being surrounded because they hear protests “all around” them.

It doesn’t take a huge number of them to cause chaos.
