To me it seems as if outfits like Blackwater were cousins of the Pinkertons, except they rented themselves out to the Defense Department and committed their atrocities outside of the country.
I joined a class action against an employer for wage theft in 1978 when I was 16, by the time I got the check I was living in NY and old enough to drink it away with some friends in a night.
I could definitely see one or more of your "militias" following in their footsteps. Heck, with the state of American history teaching, they'll probably think it's a new thing to do.
Activation Blizzard hired WilmerHale, notorious anti-labor law firm, to help them prevent the workers unionising in the face of the companies frankly abominable response to the California hostile work environment suite.

The Pinkertons in Homestead....some of your facts are wrong. Buuuuut.Baconz has learned his lesson talking about that to my local barber...
Let's just say...im the fact check.
Still can't find out the specific address where Frick "The PRICK" was shot....
I digress....sorry.

The Pinkerton were hired goons.
They can't count high enough.

Someone should do a deep dive into the Hershey "non-profit" that produces fat stacks of profits but spends very little on education.
The company should sweeten the deal. The workers won't be satisfied if the company just tries to sugarcoat their offer.
Good! I'm very, very happy it worked for you!
Pinkertons! *spit*. They're still around, still anti-union. Now they work for Amazon. And Google, Apple, and Facebook.
