The following letter is being sent out from Wisconsin Unions/THE MOB to Wisconsin Business Owners.......

UNIONS THREATEN BUSINESS | Newsradio 620 - Milwaukee, Wisconsin News, Talk, Sports, Weather | Charlie Sykes

March 10, 2011
Mr. Tom Ellis, President
Marshall & Ilsley Corporation
770 N. Water Street
Milwaukee, WI 53202
SENT VIA FASCIMILE AND REGULAR MAIL
Dear Mr. Ellis:
As you undoubtedly know, Governor Walker recently proposed a “budget
adjustment bill” to eviscerate public employees’ right to collectively bargain in
Wisconsin. ..

As you also know, Scott Walker did not campaign on this issue when he ran for
office. If he had, we are confident that you would not be listed among his largest
contributors. As such, we are contacting you now to request your support.

The undersigned groups would like your company to publicly oppose Governor
Walker’s efforts to virtually eliminate collective bargaining for public employees in
Wisconsin. While we appreciate that you may need some time to consider this
request, we ask for your response by March 17. In the event that you do not
respond to this request by that date, we will assume that you stand with
Governor Walker and against the teachers, nurses, police officers, fire fighters,
and other dedicated public employees who serve our communities.

In the event that you cannot support this effort to save collective bargaining,
please be advised that the undersigned will publicly and formally boycott the
goods and services provided by your company. However, if you join us, we will
do everything in our power to publicly celebrate your partnership in the fight to
preserve the right of public employees to be heard at the bargaining table.Wisconsin’s public employee unions serve to protect and promote equality and
fairness in the workplace. We hope you will stand with us and publicly share that
ideal.

In the event you would like to discuss this matter further, please contact the
executive Director of the Wisconsin Professional Police Association, Jim Palmer,
at 608.273.3840.

Thank you in advance for your consideration. We look forward to hearing from
you soon.

James L. Palmer, Executive Director
Wisconsin Professional Police Association
Mahlon Mitchell,President
Professional Professional Fire Fighters
Jim Conway, President
International Association of Fire Fighters Local 311
John Matthews, Execuctive Director

Intimidation is what it is. I think those businesses should counter by refusing to pay their taxes, until the budget is under control.

In the event that you cannot support this effort to save collective bargaining,
please be advised that the undersigned will publicly and formally boycott the
goods and services provided by your company.

Translation:
If you side with those Republican bastards, we'll make sure you're business is driven into the ground until it folds up like a house of paper.

That is what a boycott is

The threat of a loss of business unless said company makes certain policy decisions. It is the consumer deciding not to purchase the goods and services of said company

If the companies can handle that they should get out of the kitchen

Yes. Threatening to shut someones business down because you don't like their politics is certainly the adult thing to do.

It certainly is

How many conservatives stated they would not buy GM because of the bailout? A boycott in other words, how many conservatives boycott various stores for selling what they consider offensive music/videos. Religous groups boycotted Volvo for placing adds in magazines for gays.

Yet I doubt you were upset by those boycotts now were you

How soon we forget.

Remember 'The Dixie Chicks' and their comment about a certain president from Texas?

There's a big difference between private citizens choosing not to purchase a product and an organized union sending out threatening letters to local businesses.

Personally, I think the unions are shooting themselves in the foot with this stupidity.

Are you talking about the business owners, or the workers that will be unemployed thanks to the efforts of public employee unions looking out for workers's rights?

Unions putting people out of work for political reasons? The days of the big unions are over.

Walter · Mar 12, 2011

Talk about being "Civil" and losing "gracefully". I enjoy the hell out these "flat nose", "no neck" democrats exposing their TRUE NATURE.

When a snake is cornered....what other than a snake can it be? It will strike out with all the venom it has available. In this case they are attempting to instill fear when in reality everyone is enjoying a good laugh at their expense.....ITS OVER. There will be no successful recalls, no shut down of businesses....ITS ALL TALK and HYPERBOLE..the only tool available to LOSERS. Want to see a comparison?

Something interesting I just noticed. Of the 7 unions undersigned, 5 of them are or either police or firefighters, unions that weren't targeted by by the Wisconsin cons.

Yeah....its no big deal......."simply boycotting".....

Well perhaps you should look beyond Media Matters and THE MOB Talking points/outright LIES......

Wisconsin Police and Firefighters Didn’t Endorse Walker

There are 314 fire and police unions in the state. Four of them endorsed me. All the rest endorsed my opponent

Not when it involves the police and fire departments. I wonder if the boycott will mean the police officers will no longer get free meals at the restaurants who did not sign up to publicly support the thugs? And how about predicting headlines. "Businesses that support the thugs had zero fire hazard violations. The average for businesses that did not support the thugs was 32,476 violations."

ould you call the police to investigate the broken windows on your business?

Unions are about extortion. They're about getting their demands met through violence or threats of violence. They have no interet in fairness, no interest in service to the consumer or the taxpayer, and no interest in safety beyond their own personal safety.

So you don't think its a fundamental right to choose who you purchase from?

Church boycotts Pepsi for supporting "acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle" | reasonWeekly

Yes. I also think it's a fundamental right to support whichever political agenda I choose, free from harrassment by organized public employee unions.
