SEIU Targets Non-Union Eagle Scout
In pursuit of an Eagle Scout badge, Kevin Anderson, 17, has toiled for more than 200 hours hours over several weeks to clear a walking path in an east Allentown park.
Little did the do-gooder know that his altruistic act would put him in the cross hairs of the city's largest municipal union.
Nick Balzano, president of the local Service Employees International Union, told Allentown City Council Tuesday that the union is considering filing a grievance against the city for allowing Anderson to clear a 1,000-foot walking and biking path at Kimmets Lock Park.
"We'll be looking into the Cub Scout or Boy Scout who did the trails," Balzano told the council.

SEIU needs to get there act together. Are they gonna pick on boy scouts or people at town hall meetings

Lets not blame organized labor. Labor unions created a base for the middle class in America. Rather look to elected officials who should be looking out for ALL the people and "balancing" the pressure from unions and other forces. Our Chairman Barack IS the problem and acknowledges his allegiance to this marxist led orginization. Watch public officials closely and remove leftist and spineless from office!
Ryan89
So the answer is to stand in the way of the Boy Scouts of America? That is your solution? This is just another reason why unions only hinder society, by standing in the way of organizations that actually benefit us.

When everyone works for the government, how does the government get its money? .... Confiscation and slavery will be the result. SEIU, ACORN and all of you that support this animal in OUR white house will live to regret your votes, and I can't wait for that to happen.

SEIU and all other unions are enemies of employment and our economy. They are faced with horrible pension liabilities and have no way out except rescue by Obama. We must stop them and stop him. We're losing jobs and will continue to lose jobs until we shut them down. Obama and his administration are on our front line of enemies and these guys are right behind them but will fall when Obama falls out of power.

THEY OUGHT TO FIND OTHER LOTS OR PATHWAYS THAT ARE A MESS AND ASK SEIU WHY THEY ARE NOT CLEANED UP? WHAT ARE THEY WATING FOR THE GIRL SCOUTS TO CLEAN IT UP SO THEY CAN COMPLAIN ABOUT THEM TO CITY

It is time for the citizens of this country to throw off the yokes of oppression and re-establish our constitutional government. What has happened to "representative government" and common sense?
Billy Ed
Unbelievable. Totally unbelievable. The country HAS gone down the drain. I give up. I totally give up.
IAmAProudAmerican
By giving up you are allowing Obama and his cronies to take over. Is that what you really want?
Stand up America....... We need to take our country back...now!

isnt SEIU
the trailer trash union?
suthin_man
Hey SEIU, since you have an innocent scout in your crosshairs how about you come to GA and I'll return the favor.I can do pretty well at 300 yards! Give liberals a chance, about 100yards before you squeeze the trigger!

SEIU could pimp girl scouts and the ACLU and this administration would turn its head.

If seiu wants to do battle with a hard-working, atruistic Eagle Scout, there are legions of us ready to defend honest hard work, altruism and Scouting. Any judge who fails to throw out this case should be removed from office.

My grandson was an Eagle Scout and is currently drawing straight AAs at Purdue University. Thank God he didn't have to deal with the SEIU eggheads with his Eagle Scout Project. I am sick and tired of reading about ACORN and the SEIU activities.
What a bunch of weak kneed piles of dung! Why don't you pick on someone your own size. What a bunch of whimps!
Democrats (commies) are the Enemy
If SEIU attacks the boy scout then they are attacking all Americans
donwig56
ZThe union seiu is out of control. They should not be making policy. When will this administration wake up and do what the people want.

SEIU is a bunch of thugs controlling uneducated mindless souls that have no other hope but them. That's pretty sad. Fight against SEIU. Anywhere they show up, fight against them. Stand up and make them go away.
Democrats (commies) are the Enemy
Its time to make unions illegal and time to institute the Commmunist Control Act to prevent Communists from serving in our govt.

SEIU is a waste just like ACORN and the czars. That's 3 groups worthy of dissolution.

classless liberal loons running amok with no other focus or purpose in life other than harassing the cub scouts & boy scouts....jerks..every one of them..

Well, Well, Well, Obama's pet union at it again, now with the Boy Scouts of America. What a sad sick bunch of total idiots. I hope they are put away along with ACORN. Someone needs to be DEMANDING an investigation.

And Nick is supposedly one of the SEIU more intellectual members, as a Local president! WOW! Makes you worry about the rest, eh what?!? Maybe they can attack this Eagle Scout in a dark alley somewhere, in keeping with their usual handiwork! Did SEIU know about that area and it's need for attention? If not, why? Did they go to anyone and try to bargain for the job? Did they have any contract that made it strictly their domain? IF yes, how come they allowed it to deteriorate? I think they should just shut their mouths, and go help ACORN, their "intellectual peers!
JamesW62
Nick Balzanoand SEIU just bneed to shut up, deal with what took place and understand that anyone can do anything. and SEIU doesnt always need to be involved....
I wonder how many phone calls the local SEIU office there has gotten in regards to the stupidity
CzarsRUs
Sure hope this young man and his family get some protection. Union thugs will be after this kid shortly. Lovely country we live in now. Thanks libs.
Cisco
If the SEIU was so willing to do the clean up, why didn't they do it???
I saw the before picture. It looked like it had been that way for a very long time.
The Scout was just doing what Obama child told him to do. VOLUNTIER
Retired Army
Didn't Balzo (the Blimp) threaten a minor? Let's look into felonies the rhyme with default, then decertify the SEIU as a bargaining agent. And if the unionized police force doesn't want to investigate their union brothers, then 20,000 Allentown residents should be demanding a RICCO investigation!
cajun_kowboy_1
This should embarrass the union leaders. 1 Boy Scout does the work of 39 union workers. And for free. We need more Boy Scouts and more people volunteering in this country.
Garry
And unions wonder why they are disliked by so many people.
It is time that Unions realize that they donot run the country and it is time the people of this country stand up to their slimy tactics to gain more for doing less.

Take this to arbitration, make a national story about it, and report the final decision. This will be a black eye for acorn and seiu.
Bldeagle
If this wasn't so serious, i.e., a union going after a boyscout trying to do good, would be laughable. What is Nicky "the Bozo" Balzano gona do, make the kid an offer he can't refuse?

Our time is coming. Czars - out, ACORN - Out, SEIU - out, corruption - out.

The Allentown City Council should fire each and every Union worker (that's an oxymoron) and hire some real Americans that need jobs.
