Ok, depends if they were selling pipe bombs and if they were really going to attack Islamic people. That may be hard to prove but as with many groups some get really out of hand. Look at what happened with Rev. Jim Jones. There is always a problem with "joining" a group.
I have never been a group joiner because I am too independant. This also goes for times of emergency...joining a group no matter how good the intentions can turn bad. |

No More Free Labor
..................................
The New York Times
Growth of Unpaid Internships May Be Illegal, Officials Say
............................................................................................................................................ By STEVEN GREENHOUSE
Published: April 2, 2010
With job openings scarce for young people, the number of unpaid internships has climbed in recent years, leading federal and state regulators to worry that more employers are illegally using such internships for free labor.
Article-
.....................
Employers.... Read The Labor Laws-
The U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has developed the six factors below to evaluate whether a worker is a trainee or an employee for purposes of the FLSA: 1. The training, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to what would be given in a vocational school or academic educational instruction; 2. The training is for the benefit of the trainees; 3. The trainees do not displace regular employees, but work under their close observation; 4. The employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the trainees, and on occasion the employer's operations may actually be impeded; 5. The trainees are not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the training period; and 6. The employer and the trainees understand that the trainees are not entitled to wages for the time spent in training. If all of the factors listed above are met, then the worker is a "trainee", an employment relationship does not exist under the FLSA, and the FLSA's minimum wage and overtime provisions do not apply to the worker. Because the FLSA's definition of "employee" is broad, the excluded category of "trainee" is necessarily quite narrow. Moreover, the fact that an employer labels a worker as a trainee and the worker's activities as training and/or a state unemployment compensation program develops what it calls a training program and describes the unemployed workers who participate as trainees does not make the worker a trainee for purposes of the FLSA unless the six factors are met. Some of the six factors are discussed in more detail below. cont. page 8 under-
Training Similar to Vocational School/The Primary Beneficiary of the Activity ( here's The Beef...)
On the other hand, if the workers are engaged in the primary operations of the employer and are performing productive work (for example, filing, performing other clerical work, or assisting customers), then the fact that they may be receiving some benefits in the form of a new skill or improved work habits is unlikely to make them trainees given the benefits received by the employer. .....................
