You said it all in this one post...........post over!Ah, you were bothered, poor baby. You and the other members of the echo chamber following Hannity's rant about Hoffa's comment blistered the web with your feigned outrage. You're nothing but a parrot P_P, go get a cracker (plenty of 'em in the South).
Racism really doesn't suit ya'll
Port of Longview, Washington about 400 longshoreman storm gates of port and hold security guards hostage . They also cut brake lines to trains and scuffled with police. Socialists at work, just because they did not like the company hiring others to do the job. Typical.
And what is to be expected when a major political party goes after the income and jobs of others? Are you ignorant of American History & the violence on both sides during the emergence of the labor movement?
Self defined conservatives and the pols who hope to earn an advantage by going after the working men and women of this country need to (lol, as if they can) think about the consequences before they act (or vote). You ain't seen nothing yet (and, btw, I was a manager in a law enforecment agency before I retired, so don't lump me in as a new iteration of a Wobblie).
Why are conservatives defending an international conglomerate over American Workers?
Sorta strange. EGT is owned by North America, South Korea and Japan. They also broke an agreement with the ILWU.
Why are you defending violence? The company hired union workers-just not ILWU workers. Apart from all of that...we need our companies to be free to hire whatever workers they want to without fear of violence and retaliation!
This kind of violence is why unions are refereed to as thugs.
That was the problem. They were hiring scabs. EGT broke the agreement.
Hey..if the police don't want to enforce an agreement..ILWU has every right to strike.
And protest.
Actually..maybe the government should sit this out. Free market and all ya know.
Pretty sure the longshoremen can settle this.

Well actually you make the case that it was a legal matter. The choice was to protest peacefully and seek legal redress, not get violent and destroy property... It is never a cops duty to settle a legal matter, that's why we have a court system.
Nice to see democrats once again advocating violence when their side are the perpetrators.
This is the outcome you guys want. You think people are going to quietly go back to the way things were before the New Deal.
Well..lets review. Workers did try to get redress in the court system. The court system favored the well monied. Why? They were sorta on the take. So people formed Unions. The Businesses responded by beating up people and assasinating leaders. The Unions responded by destorying property and gumming up the works. Things got so bad..the government stepped in. They allowed Unions to form and organize and they created binding arbitration so the wheels started turning again. This worked out very well until like 1980 when Ronald Reagan started breaking Unions. Things went down hill since then. Wages have been flat..and executives have been getting obscenely rich.
People are fed up.
This is what happens when you fuck with a person's livelihood.
And yet..Liberals always said..the Tea Party has every right to protest.
Yes, they did. They have never advocated violent protest as you are doing when it's union people doing it. Huge difference. You ought to be calling these guys out on it, instead of making excuses for them.
Excuses? What excuses?
I'm pointing out that labor's been under attack for a very long time.
Well it's going to come to a head.
Weren't you a cop?Port of Longview, Washington about 400 longshoreman storm gates of port and hold security guards hostage . They also cut brake lines to trains and scuffled with police. Socialists at work, just because they did not like the company hiring others to do the job. Typical.

What did the GOP have to do with this, you utter moron?What political party? The company hired others and the thugs got mad. You are the ignorant one.And what is to be expected when a major political party goes after the income and jobs of others?

Ah, duh, the Republican Party is attacking unions, try to keep up, junior. It has become one of their 'causes' along with ending Social Security, Medicare, Medicade, Unemployment compensaton, health care reform, the EPA, FDA and any an all regulations designed to protect consumers.

Name one in the same context, why don't you.non union people do bad things also.
So...you fucked up, and it's House's fault.Ah, duh, the Republican Party is attacking unions, try to keep up, junior.

Just admit you didn't read the article...
I mean it's obvious, but you should admit it anyway, because what you are spewing has absolutely nothing to do with the incident...
From your many posts I understand why you don't get it. It's a matter of reasoning, something you cannot understand.
You said it all in this one post...........post over!
Racism really doesn't suit ya'll
Racism? Calling a Cracker a Cracker isn't racism. It might be called elitism, since I'm white and educated and crackers are white and ... well, let's just say not well educated.

Income and jobs of others? The Union went for the income of others. Non-union people don't go for the income of others. When they want a raise, they ask for one politely, and if they don't get it, they move on to a higher-paying job someplace else. Why does the Union think it is entitled to always better everything than anyone else has including their bosses?Port of Longview, Washington about 400 longshoreman storm gates of port and hold security guards hostage .

i can always count on wry to blame the republicans, no matter what.
it's good to have a constant in this crazy world of ours.
thanks, wry!

Do you know what these paragons of strength do when they get the big bucks, do you really?
I'll tell you what they get. They dump wifey #5 and go for cutie pie #6 to be wifey #6 and quit paying child suport. That's exactly what they do with their damn money. They dump wife kids and family. I could hurl.
No we're not ignorant. We're experienced. I'm glad you're true to your wife, hope you make it to your golden anniversary. I ran a business where my employees made better money than me because I had to pay the taxes, bills, and business expenses with my share of the receipts. I didn't mind until one of them decided she wasn't making enough, so she stole from the business every day she worked. She cheerfully stole my ability to pay the taxes, bills, and business expenses. I went into collossal debt, and when I caught her red handed that was her last day. She got to go off and steal from the next sucker who hired her. I spent 5 damn years paying the bank back for what miss important stole. Now don't you ever accuse me of being ignorant of working people.Income and jobs of others?

Thanks for sharing. As a vet I greatly appreciate your signature line; too bad most of the callous conservatives never served and most are too willing to send other peoples kids into harms way.
BTW, I'm still married to wifey #1, for 35 years next November, and while not a union member I was a manager that locked horns with business agents over the years. It's scary/ funny that most of the 'conservatives' on this message board are like you, so very ignorant and so sure of themselves.
