A bit violent for my tastes but hey, that might be the only way, right?

It's only the worker's holiday in countries that use the metric system; in the US the worker's holiday is not until September 7.

Never understood world days oh well gives me a excuse for a personal day.

4327951 Well, the reason for this is because International Labor Day is when it is due to a bunch of anarchists got hanged after fighting for the 8 hour day in Chicago in 1886. They were hanged because they supposedly inspired someone to throw to set off a bomb in a police station despite the fact that it could not be linked to them or their organizations. To celebrate such a holiday would be seen by conservatives as celebrating terrorists, so it is instead practiced on the opposite end of the calender.
