Let me fix that for you: If you're willing to strike, you must be willing to do so under the real risk of being murdered [0]. If you're new to this history, the Coal Wars [1] are a good starting point.

Yeah dude, murder is bad. But Reagan didn't murder the air traffic controllers he fired them, which is hardly "vicious".

As for the coal wars, a lot of those altercations weren't exactly result of union workers simply not showing up to work.
