Unions have stepped to a new low by protesting churches in California. Protesting churches because of their use of private contractors instead of union labor. Churches who only employ one or two pastors and one head administrator and operate off of donations.
In Bakersfield, California the local carpenters union is protesting the Grace Baptist Church for hiring a contractor who hired non-union labor. Grace Baptist Church had no control over who the contractor hired.

Since when is it a "shame" to hire non union work? Since when is it required we hire union work?
Is this the United States of America or the Soviet UNION.
They try to bully banks and now churches?
This is ridiculous. This kind of bullying, should not be tolerated.
How is a peaceful protest "communist"? OF COURSE union workers think it is a shame to hire scab labor. The fact that a customer needs or wants cheap labor is no excuse. If the shop is closed or the Housing Code requires a licensed aka union worker, then avoiding the law is no good even if the doer thinks it has some claim to Special Holiness.
Should churches be permitted to burn their trash because they wish to avoid paying for garbage collection? Don't us non-adherents already pay enough of the costs of these religious outfits so that they can at least be expected to follow the few laws that still apply to them?
