That would be correct. But the "Bone Daddy's Brigade" hasn't actually done anything concrete to try and direct the union.

On the other hand, our brothers in FLL did take concrete actions to direct their union….and you guys ignored them.


I guess the "Bone Daddy's Brigade" is the reason your buddies lost 109. I guess the "Bone Daddy's Brigade" is the reason 109 passed resolutions to change the NC. I guess the "Bone Daddy's Brigade" is the reason only 36% of the pilots cared enough to answer your in house contract wish list.

On one hand, you constantly attack the "Bone Daddy's Brigade", indicating that you feel threatened - which implies that said "Brigade" actually has some power and influence - and on the other hand you try show that the "Bone Daddy's Brigade" is a small and insignificant group. Why do you constantly get defensive about a small group of guys in DFW who get together and eat BBQ? If we're so insignificant, why don't you let it go? If we're (I am) the threat you think we are, I'd think that you'd be trying to bring us back into the fold vs driving us out even further.

Like I told a political operative in Vegas, I could step in front of a bus tomorrow and you guys will still have opposition. Opposition based on a desire to have a voice. Opposition to your brand of jack boot unionism, not opposition due to unionism.
