[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If we call it a "sick out" and not a strike can we stop arguing about what happened?[/quote]

I don’t really care - they are both illegal concerted actions that were specifically intended to keep SN kids out of school. The only reason the terminology argument matters is because it shows how dumb certain people are to think calling it a “sick out” somehow changes the labor law or political implications. [/quote]

Oh, I was wondering if that's what the "incorrect" person was quibbling with.  Also, the "intention" I doubt was specifically to keep SN kids out of school -- that was the impact, certainly.  But again I can see the quibbling being about "intent".

Any quibbling about intention seems pretty weak.  Yes I realize they weren't specifically targeting my kid, and they don't hate SN kids, blah blah blah.  Doesn't change the fact that they went on strike and kept SN kids out of school.  [/quote]

I agree -- I think that all of the language quibbling is pretty weak.  It's just a smokescreen, and sidetracks from meaningful discussion. [/quote]
