Mohawk Muppets UNITE!!!And they have become very aggressive.
How do you unionize with no common employer to collectively bargain with? Aren’t these just attractive beggars?
Cool. Right after you guys unionize you can all start paying licensing fees to the intellectual-property owners whose work you are stealing.
I am genuinely puzzled about Disney’s apparent acquiescence to the use of Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Pluto for public panhandling in Times Square. Disney has a significant corporate presence there, with a large store and several Broadway theaters running their musicals.
Generally DIsney is well-known for vigorously defending their I.P.
The squeegie guys could use a union too.
Woody? He's an instigator.
Mohawk Muppets UNITE!!!Who would let one of those “characters” touch your kids? Who knows what is under that costume?
Have you ever noticed that the more insignificant a socialist organization is the longer their name? And the wackier their leadership.

But that aside, what action can they take to force whoever to the negotiating table?
Marching with signs in costume? Well, there’s a free photo op for you. Marching out of costume?
Nah, better to empower individual and let the market place decide on the favorite.
Besides, who doesn’t like to see Goofy kicking the crap out of Elmo or Bigbird at lunchtime?
Not sure why they’d bother. What are they looking for, mandatory tips from tourists? What can they do if they don’t get their way, go on strike?
Not a very catchy handle they’ve come up with: AOAUFASNYC
Even better: PHU (pan handlers union)
