CNET reports:
Apple's San Francisco flagship store temporarily became a scene of confusion and arrests on Thursday because of a sit-in held inside. A gathering of roughly 50 protestors were demonstrating against Apple for allegedly underpaying contract employees that work at its retail stores.
The protestors reportedly belong to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and said Apple routinely underpays contractors, such as security guards. The union also alleged that Apple hires contractors for part-time jobs to prevent paying employee benefits.

Are you one of those dumbass geeks who thinks that morality is defined by the law rather than the other way around?

> Nah. I'm just not so obsessed with Apple that I blow frivolous things out of proportion.
Proportion has nothing to do with it.
It is about a pattern of using wealth and power to get your own set of rules.

> You sought a pattern, your lack of proportion satisfied your desire.
Are you denying there is a pattern?
If so why focus on the letter of the law as an excuse instead of bring out your proportionality defense?
Looks to me like you are just pissy about getting called out for saying something obviously dumb.

Nah, just saying that's a piss-poor example. Even your own choice of words betrays you. You've got several lower-hanging fruit, no pun intended, than that.
I'm sorry, didn't mean to post anonymously. Posting to verify my identity and to see that you responded.

Ah, I get it now.
Your schtick is to tell people what is inside their own heads particularly in contradiction to their own words, and then act like they should be able to read your mind too.
Well, enjoy that sense of superiority because that's about all that's in evidence here.
