Union thug violence in Washinton

[feralkid]

I find this post ironic as LEOs are unionized and collectively bargain. So, your answer to union thuggery is to bring other union members to police them. Do you consider the cops evil union thugs as well?

It's a pretty safe bet Spidey never thought it through, but simply jumped into his usual violent/ latent homoerotic fantasy mode

When you commit acts of terrorism against railways/cars you deserve whatever you get. They freaking cut the brake lines of trains. That's a serious federal crime.

They are also disobeying a federal restraining order saying to keep away because of their death threats and assaults. They are breaking the law just by being there.

That doesn't really line up with you suggesting all liberals should be "dealt with" by being punched in the throat by cops...

Actually in this case the union was too expensive and they went with somebody else. Free market capitalism in action, that's a good thing. Guess you didn't read the article or have any idea what this story is about and resorted to the insane mind of a liberal regardless of facts and devoid any common sense.

I've lived in this town, and with the people involved, for almost 40 years. I'm also opposed to the Democratic Party and all modern uses of liberal/conservative. Care to try and tell me the same thing you told him when I point out that you're mentally retarded and don't have a fucking clue?

The union probably outsourced the thuggery. :awe:

Yeah maybe Scott Walker hooked them up with a deal... :awe:

They didn't just go with "somebody else." They went with a different union! loliberals

Just your typical run of the mill union activity......

"Run of the mill" eh? I suppose I shouldn't hold my breath waiting for you to actually substantiate this bald assertion, should I?

Let's play who said what:

"take them out"
"get bloody on the streets"
"Take these son of a bitches out"
"go to the mat"

 

[crownjules]

Deplorable activity on the part of this union and it's members. Not representative of all unions. That's like classifying all Christians based on the actions and views of the WBC.

Yeah they went with other UNION people.

"The International Longshore and Warehouse Union believes it has the right to work at the facility, but the company has hired a contractor that's staffing a workforce of other union laborers."

I'm sure the voices in his head don't appreciate you trying to upset his worldview like that... you got some nerve!

Yes. That makes it even more lulz worthy.

Pay attention to who is defending the union in this thread, it's how they think/operate - the mind of a liberal.

Recent verizon strike was another example. Google is your friend, there are countless examples. Their mentality is that by not agreeing with them you are a threat to their livelihood so the behavior is justified.

I was actually making a jab at you Im sure you posted this thinking it was a win for the company/free market but they still ended up with union laberours. Just different ones.

I support unions in principle. But i dont deny their are bad ones out their. People should be able to band together for their own benefit to avoid being exploited. Its really no different than a political part affiliation.

 

[nonameo]

I stand beside workers' right to unionize. However, this behavior is unbecoming.

 

[hal2kilo]

Another reason why we should outsource to China - their people are broken and beaten. Not like these uppity American workers!

lol. luvya primo

Violence is never an appropriate response. However it's funny that this is actually the "we the people" that spidey is always cheerleading. The union members are actually more like the average person. They aren't wealthy, they're an average working person, and they join a union to protect their workers rights from the corporatocracy that the far right wants to have. This is the actual we the people, the actual people getting screwed over. Not the rich 1 percenters that people like spidey wants to protect. And the reason you have these type of people resort to violence is that unlike the rich people spidey and the Tea Party looney tunes want to help, these union members are actually in need and hurt by conservative policies. Not the made up bullshit spidey would like you to believe affects the upper 1% that the right is protecting.

The question I keep wondering is why are Spidey and the same people on this forum are so consistently anti-Union.

Do a search on the word Union and see who posts threads on the subject.

Why? Because of behavior exactly like this.

We are sending the Koch bros buttplug a pack'in in January.

 

[sarsipias1234]

Way to rationalize, troll. Speak to the topic or stfu. Mob violence is reprehensible, regardless of the mob.

Mob violence is reprehensible.

Corruption in our government and business is reprehensible.

So maybe the mob violence is appropriate to the level of corruption in our government.

The level of corruption in our government has created extreme injustices for those lease able to defend themselves. So these people resort to violence.

 

[Moonbeam]

The rich buy the laws they want to fuck working people. This is violence against the working class. When you buy the laws and the laws are unjust, people resort to violence. That's the way things work, so stop buying laws that fuck the working class if you don't like having your own violence shoved back in your face.

LOL at collections of anecdotal incidents of foul mouthed strikers compiled by the likes of "biggovernment.com" etc. proving that anything in particular is "run of the mill." How many union workers in America, how many strikes, what percentage engage in such behavior? Isolated incidents don't prove a pattern, not when they are perpetrated by tea partiers, not when they're perpetrated by union members.

The term "run of the mill" means

Lacking unusual or special aspects; ordinary

. You can easily find countless examples of the behavior outlined in the OP. Thus, it is not unusual, it is ordinary, and it qualifies to be described as "run of the mill".

Isolated incidents don't prove a pattern

Isolated incidents? LOL Ok, whatevs.
