Police cracked down on striking drivers in Queens who blocked deliveries.

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.

    I do believe that that old, traditional folk song applies here.

    Written by the troubadours O’Shea Jackson, Lorenzo Patterson, and Tracy Curry, it goes something like this:

    Fuck the police, fuck fuck
    Fuck the police, fuck fuck
    Fuck the police, fuck the, fuck the
    Fuck the police

      Under the current circumstances they should consult Ice Cube’s metal band Bodycount for advice.
