maybe if you had you would then realise why feelings run high towards strike breakers.
I thought I'd made that point clear already. Having lived through the miners' strikes I can fully understand that feelings run high but that does not excuse aggressive intimidation or violence. How would you feel about a large group of workers vehemently opposed to any such action resorting to that sort of behaviour with a group of strikers?

My feelings run high over all sorts of issues but that doesn't entitle me to aggressively bully/intimidate others whose views differ from mine.
