A strike-breaker is a traitor

[jacko]

Jack Londons`s definition of a scab.
`After god had finished the rattlesnake,the and vampire,he had some aweful substance leftwith which he made a scab.
`A scab is a two-legged animal with a cork-screw soul,a water-logged brain,a combination backbone of jelly and glue.
Where others have a heart,he cariies a tumour of rotten principles.
`When a scab comes down the street,men turn their backs,and angels weep in heaven,and the devil shuts the gates of hell to keep him out.
`No man has a right to scab so long as there is a pool of water to drown his carcass in,or a rope long enough to hang his body with.
Judas Iscariot was a gentleman compared with a scab,for after betraying his master he had character enough to hang himself. A scab as not.
`Esau sold his birthright for a mess of pottage.Judas Iscriot sol his saviour for 30 pieces of silver.Benedict Arnold sold his country for a promise of a commission in the british army.
The modern strike-breaker sells his birthright,his country,his wife,his children and his fellow-men for an unfilled promise from his employer.
`Esau was a traitor to himself;Judas Iscariot was a traitor to his god;Benedict Arnold was a traitor to his country.
A STRIKE-BREAKER IS A TRAITOR to his god,his country,his wife,his family and his class.A REAL MAN NEVER BECOMES A STRIKE-BREAKER.....

Jacko I think that quote from Jack London has been posted before but I don't think you'll get many arguments on here. In fact I think you and IWW will get on like a pair of strikers standing over the body of a scab.

Yes, but I think there would be more than just the two of us if this messageboard is anything to go by.
'People of the Abyss' by Jack London is a fine book by the way.

Will you please stop recommending books as I am a sucker for that.

Have just ordered it from Amazon, but as the overpaid and under worked postal workers I hear are coming out on strike (whats the world coming too), could you please call off all action till I receive the book


Thanks

Sorry mate! Perhaps we should have a 'Favourite Books' thread. Tony Benn is supposed to have said "Books are the university of the working man", and woman as well I would add. At least a thread discussing literature would not attract screws.
