I hope this demonstration is not as castrated as every other one in history. Obviously ALPA has not learned that the *only* response that works is a nuclear response. Picketing with vague, friendly slogans that no one cares about doesn't work. How about "We Save Your Lives, We Demand Compensation", "JB Abuses Pilots", "JB Pays Us 40% Less", "JB Exploits Pilots", "JB Steals from Pilots", "JB disrespects pilots", "JB doesn't care about its pilots", "JB Culture is Fake", "JB's fake culture doesn't pay the bills", "JB Lies, Lies, Lies". I hope that gold mine of ALPA dues goes towards handing out informational pamphlets, buying air horns, hiring sky-writers, and approaching every news media around.
People, you have no power other than striking and the court of public opinion. The public doesn't care unless you become their problem. The system is rigged against you (RLA). Accomplished history demonstrates nothing but systemic failure in previous ALPA campaigns (vs. time/money expended). Time to try other techniques. Learn from what other people in other industries and politics do to achieve their objectives. Contact B6 ALPA and tell them this is war, not Sunday church. We will only win if we exert pressure ourselves, each and every one of us, on B6 ALPA and ALPA to get results. Remember, the RLA is merely a MINIMUM framework. JB could be convinced to simple settle this overnight if they are given sufficient reason to do so.
