Having replacement workers constitutes a form of violence. Violence of any kind is unacceptable. We must not allow violence under any pretext, be it from the employer side or the union side. This is unacceptable.
Now, if we cheat by allowing replacement workers in a small plant while the employers are on a picket line, this is a form of violence. It may be psychological, but if the situation continues, it may turn into physical violence. This is extremely unfortunate and we must not allow this to happen.
