If this does result in a strike we can expect to see this union resorting to violence quickly. They have no negotiating strength apart from force and can be replaced by California's beloved "undocumented aliens" for a fraction of the cost. In no time this union (like so many others before it) will have gone the way of the dodo, and good riddance.

Can't we just send the workers back to Mexico instead of meeting their demands?

I think they'll try to rein in any problems. Think of the bad press they'd get if they knocked down a normal shopper trying to buy milk and food for his/her children.

I hope they are sensible.
