  By the way, did Payne forget to color the other union goon in?
  1. Ted S. 13 years ago
    
    They didn't have color back in the other union goon's day.

      those were simpler times.

        The guy who does the coloring is on a break.

    That isn't another guy, that's his Matrix style afterimage because he's moving so fast.

      Union goons are plugged in?

It wasn't funny the first time either

  Yeah, so not clicking that!

    SFW, for once - it is a link to his website showing he used the same goddamn idea in another cartoon. Recycling a good idea is one thing, but recycling this one?
2. Lord Humungus 13 years ago
  
  god, it's like the grenade of cartoons, causing maximum cranial damage.
3. Almanian. 13 years ago
  
  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now THAT'S funny!
  
  OK, no.

Imagine what if the union goon meet a Cleveland RTA bus driver? A bit off-topic but I spotted a parody clip of the bus driver http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CndW6qIL4L4 😉

Funnies aside, I am stunned at how moronic the unions are.

Trashing a hot dog stand and calling the owner nigger and Uncle Tom? They think that is good PR?

Genius, pure genius.

  Like that'll ever make the news.......
  
  Unions have always been racist thugs, not that you'd ever know it based on how they are portrayed in both the news and entertainment media. I know people who genuinely believe that unions were "instrumental" in the civil rights movement. It's disturbing how little the average peas.. err person knows about history. And much of what they do "know" is prog horseshit.

    Pretty much everything useful that I've learned was definitely not from government schools.
  2. mr simple 13 years ago
    
    I just fond out that a bunch of people at my work, including VP level, didn't know that the Rosetta Stone was anything other than a language learning software. Not quite the same thing as brainwashed into partisan history, but still kind of mind blowing.

      A friend of mine from my high school days believed Miss Saigon was the woman from those psychic hotline commercials.
2. Ted S. 13 years ago
  
  When you have the media running interference for you, you tend to get either dumb or hubristic.
3. anon 13 years ago
  
  It's in union members' nature to perform such acts. Unions are nothing more than gangs, except (unjustly) legal ones.
4. Almanian. 13 years ago
  
  An odd thing is that the UAW - at least - has put a huge effort into its internal affirmative action climate change diversity in recent years. So lots of negroes blacks Africanos African Americans OKblacks, dames broads female transgendered confused young men women in positions of authority (Director, Assistant Director, Assistant Admin).
  
  But their membership? Not so much...
  1. anon 13 years ago
    
    But why do you hate black people?
Caleb Turberville 13 years ago

I'm about to blow your mind:

Is that the Right-to-Work guy's eyes or nostrils?
1. Whiterun Guard 13 years ago
  
  Wow, my mind is blown! I thought they were shooting a bowling pin out of a shirt-shaped cannon for some reason.
  1. LTC(ret) John 13 years ago
    
    "shooting a bowling pin out of a shirt-shaped cannon"
    
    Assassin! You almost got me with the patented choke-to-death-laughing hit job.
    1. Almanian. 13 years ago
      
      And he would have pulled if off, too, if it hadn't been for those meddling kids!
Fist of Etiquette 13 years ago

The guy wearing the uppercuts apron is being defiled by his outline doppelganger. No wonder he's so cranky.
1. Kaptious Kristen 13 years ago
  
  Some people like that, ya know!
  1. Fist of Etiquette 13 years ago
    
    Is that an admission?
Ted S. 13 years ago

Why are the union thugs portrayed as gay bears?
1. Whiterun Guard 13 years ago
  
  I thought they were Nickelback roadies. Although I guess there is a lot of overlap in that Venn.
Lord Humungus 13 years ago

Almanian. 13 years ago

1) Needs moar labelz
2) Everyone in this cartoon is white. Therefore - RACIST.
3) The narcoleptic man in the background falling to sleep - and falling over - is extremely insensitive
4) HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FUCK YOU MICHIGAN UNION GOONS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Happy Friday. UNLESS YOU'RE A MICHIGAN UNION GOON - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
1. anon 13 years ago
  
  But... What if the guy getting punched is Uncle Tom?
  1. Almanian. 13 years ago
    
    I don't think that's Clarence Thomas, but I may be mistaken.

Stay out of Quebec Payne, they punish bad art up there.
1. LTC(ret) John 13 years ago
  
  Nicely done, tying that one into this...effort... of Payne's.
sarcasmic 13 years ago

I don't get it.
1. Fatty Bolger 13 years ago
  
  It's Payne's artistic rendering of this event, rendered in his trademark surreal style. His use of labels lends a singular objectivity to an emotionally freighted situation, and variable scale and use of color provides a visible demonstration of the relative preponderance of the piece's subjects. It's quite stunning, really.

Okay. Why is Hit and Run giving me a new window of some stupid ad when I click on the comment link? I donated last year. I did not donate this year b/c I got the impression all the donations brought to the site was 24/7. Am I being punished? Is anyone else noticing new window popups? /rant

Also bring back the fucking single page option for long articles. Damn click whores! /not a rant

  Or perhaps they went to sustain existing operations, like Hit and Run and ReasonTV? Man, people will complain about anything.
  1. sticks 13 years ago
    
    I don't know. In the first q and a for the most recent webathon they mentioned last year and a dollar amount over 50000 and that it mostly went to 24/7. Yeah I'm complaining. I find 24/7 useless. I have found no improvement in hit and run or reasonTV. shrug. Then again I am nobody. No reason to listen to me. I like to give a voice to the voices in my head.
    
    And how much are they paid? j/k Take it if they offer it matt and nick:)
Lyle 13 years ago

What they did to the hot dog guy's stuff is really horrible. Even if they had shot the guy I don't think it would have made the news, like say Trayvon Martin's death.
