Union Leader Criticized for Threatening Legal Action Over Boy Scout's

SEIU threatens Boy Scouts. What a bunch of thugs.


A Pennsylvania union leader has come under fire after threatening legal action against the city of Allentown for allowing a Boy Scout to voluntarily clear a walking path in a local park.

Nick Balzano, president of the Service Employees International Union's Allentown chapter, said last week that the union might file a grievance against the city for allowing 17-year-old Kevin Anderson to clear the hiking trail, instead of paying some of the 39 recently laid-off SEIU members to do the work.

You know it's a sad state of affairs when Unions are protesting Boy Scouts. Next they'll want to unionize the scouts and make them demand payment for earning merit badges with bonuses for over-quota badges and a retirement package if the scout makes Eagle.

This is sad......... I'd let the Boy Scouts do it for free when they wanted to and tell the SEIU to go f themselves.

It's been entertaining watching liberals defend the unions on this one.

Yeah, because paying a union guy $45 an hour plus benefits to clean a hiking trail is great for taxpayers. Boy Scouts and inmates clean roads and trails here, the unions would have a cerebral hemorrhage.

The Free to Work States are sounding real good, even if it allows some illegal immigrant to work.
