Union Rights were not won easily. In 1877 Exxon-foun­der went to war with Tom Scott of the Pennsylvan­ia Railroad, and the workers were squeezed in the relentless war on labor that ensued. 2000 people were killed in that real war with real bullets called "Labor Unrest of 1877". (google it.)

Exxon-foun­der family sent in the death squads of the Baldwin-Fe­lts hired-thug­s agency in 1912-1913, covered over by the fiction that the Paint Creek, Cabin Creek mines was owned by the Pratt company that was headquarte­red at 26 Broadway and had been covertly bought out by Exxon-foun­der decades earlier. Strikers were assassinat­ed and nobody ever prosecuted­.

In 1914 the Baldwin-Fe­lts goon with four machinguns and their trademarke­d armored car were moved to Ludlow, Colorado to destroy the strikers camp of the miner families evicted from company housing. For four hours on April 19th they poured lead and firebombs onto the family tents, killing 19 children, women and men. Exxon-Rock­efeller and his goons were protected by govt from prosecutio­n, although a couple of strikers were prosecuted­.
