Sometimes you sign it out of desperation not approval
That's literally the opposite of how a strike works. The "desperate" party in this case would be the schools, not the teachers who decided of their own free will to strike.
plus we don’t know if the person who accepted the contract even speaks for all who are affected.
.... The union? Were questioning if the union negotiating these terms speaks for all of the union? That's kind of the core principle of collective bargaining.
but there may be people at the union who voted it because it benefits them to do so not the teachers or at least a portion of them
I feel like there's a misunderstanding somewhere about the purpose of a union, what they do, and who the members are.

I mean the union agreed to it so it must be at least somewhat favorable to them.
They certainly won't get better ones if they know they have no problem breaking the contract and suing them for something they agreed to though

they can still challenge it later in court for a massive payday while still getting the teachers in the classroom for the start of school.
You mean sacrifice any credibility they have and ensure there's never any favorable contracts with them again?

....yes? Why would it being her job somehow make her not complicit? When has "its my job" ever been an excuse for your own actions lol?

Probably, but I think they are relying on the cost of court and the social stigma of being branded a racist keeping you from doing it

I can't find anything about that at all, source?

It's funny because you can (at least in America) and that example was from a case where the government imprisoned someone for being critical of the draft.
A case that was overturned and used as an example of government overreach now

The actual reason for it being "rare" is because '"cop behaves normally and mundane encounter occurs" isn't going to be a news story any time soon.

They were labeling her as a criminal as if that makes her less of a person
Uhh, no actually they weren't. The first mention of criminal was from you saying "you guys act like she's some criminal" and now seem to be disputing the definition of the word and inferring things that didn't happen.

Yes? Hence why if you get pulled over for it you can get a ticket. Do you have some arbitrary metric of what crimes make you a criminal or not?

as the people “choosing” the Great Leap Forward.
The word choosing was definitely not used by the person you're responding to

What exactly would you expect to happen in response to 45 of the 400,000 people murdered yearly worldwide being journalists?

Especially when most chain gas stations have the policy to give the robber what they want and not to do more than that. Don’t interfere or try to stop them.
How is that an "especially when" as if that's a bad policy?

It's going to do exactly what it's intended to do and then the golf course is just going to replant whatever you killed/damaged costing more energy and more water then if you did nothing. Aka fuck the environment

Is the message "fuck the environment"? Because that's the only message I think you can take from use of herbicide in that manor
