Woody Guthrie sings about the Ludlow Massacre, in which 20 people were killed for striking against coal mine operators in 1914. Happy Labor Day! Enjoy your day off, but give a thought to organized labor, which is what this day is all about.

Start the summer with remebrence of the massacre of steel workers in Chicago on Memorial Day at a family picnic event ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Steel_strike) And ends with this. Alas there have probably been enough massacres of workers by "law enforcement" to fill a calendar. These types of events and impunity from repercussions are what the police mean when they say they want to go back to when police were "respected" ( feared) and people like demented donnie babble about law and order.
