From the article: In December 19 thousands of Amazon workers organizing with the Teamsters launched a cascade of unfair practice strikes from coast to coast at the logistics giant.

At the picket line in Queens, New York, police arrested and released Anthony Rosario, a Teamsters organizer, and Jogernsyn Cardenas, one of the striking workers, and then threatened mass arrests before breaking the line in two to allow vans through.

You might eventually and with some great expense (even if you have a public defender, jail isn’t cheap for poor people), but you won’t beat the ride. They can and will destroy your life and livelihood with a trumped up charge for little more than knowing your rights. It doesn’t matter if the charge sticks, the injustice has been done and freedom has been trampled.

No disagreement there. The justice system in America is anything but.
