"NY City held hostage by thugs at union" should be the headline for every paper in the country.
Gitmo? Toss him to the freezing commuters walking to work.
"....could result in jail time......we would hope so...in Gitmo to never be heard from again."
Amen...let's enforce provisions agains terrorism. You take an organization like the TWU...their people are very well paid and have greater benefits than those in the private sector, given a fair comparison as to skill and educational requirements. Essentail services strike and you have a major metroplex shut down. It was tough to get around on 9/11 (I was right there). The logistics here are somewhat comparable. The union needs to be punished, severely. I'm not complaining vis-a-vis my own planning, but most of us don't have the benefits that these people have. This union needs to be busted and put out of business and their so called leadership, jailed for a lengthy period of time. This could be argued as constituting terrorism. You do not cripple a major city like New York. These Moth..Fuc..s are criminals.
