Portland police declare riot as anti-cop protesters torch union headquarters

In my view unions make most sense as a collective organization representing labor in negotiations against the collective organization of a corporation representing capital.

I'm not convinced yes that unions make sense when the other party represents the interests of the people - ie the government. As a similar example, I don't want our military to have a union - it seems like that would be overall detrimental as well.

I am pro the existence of unions, and certain protections for unions and the people in them, but like any organization I am capable of supporting or not supporting any specific union based on their actions.

This is similar to how I am generally pro the existince of non-profits and charities, but do not inherently support a non-profits mission because it's non-profit.

Not just the title. The article is heavily biased. Framing protestors as “vigilantes” implies wrongdoing, and using words like “protestors facing off with police” with no other context implies that protestors and police are equal or comparable in force. It’s not even close.
