Longshoremen storm Wash. state port, damage RR
Yahoo News ^ | 9/9/2011 | AP




LONGVIEW, Wash. (AP) — Hundreds of Longshoremen stormed the Port of Longview early Thursday, overpowered and held security guards, damaged railroad cars, and dumped grain that is the center of a labor dispute, said Longview Police Chief Jim Duscha.

Six guards were held hostage for a couple of hours after 500 or more Longshoremen broke down gates about 4:30 a.m. and smashed windows in the guard shack, he said.

No one was hurt, and nobody has been arrested.

Good for them!  200+ Years ago we had the Boston Tea Party and Shay's Rebellion.  People praised acts like this.  I'm sure these patriots will be looked upon as terrorists and violent criminals.  As long as no one gets hurt we need more shit like this!!!!

Why do Unions and organized labor hate the working man so much? Why do they want to destroy and wreck and prevent hard working Americans from earning a decent paycheck?

Why are Unions anti-worker? Anti-paycheck? Anti-Hard working folks?

Unions exist for one reason only - themselves and shakedown others.

It's amazing how a group of people who make up something like 7% of the American workforce think they're entitled to everything, the other 93% be damned. It's disgusting.

Haha you fucking retards listen to the media too much.  There are lazy ass fucks in EVERY INDUSTRY!  Both Union and NonUnion.  There are as many lazy do nothings on WallStreet as there are at the Ford plant.  But on average the steel workers, the longshoreman, the pipe layers, brick layers, etc. put a solid day's work which is more than I can say for most of the fucking penical and paper pushers graduating college these days.  And the AMA is a union as well you idiots are just too stupid to realize it.  The Bar Association is a union and operates the same way.  Don't hate unions because of a few bad apples.  Lazy people are everywhere nowadays.  Unions gave this country a HELL OF  ALOT TO BE PROUD OF!  It it wasn't for unions all you losers would be working 90 hours a week, for peanuts, till your 70 years old if you even made it that for in a company looking forward to possibly living off your measly shitty 401k investments.  The US economy is fucked and the worker is getting crapped on.  You can bitch and moan about the left this the right that Obama this Bush that.......THEY ARE ALL IN ON IT!  There is more corporate fucking welfare doled out by the right as there is social welfare doled out by the left.  But the banks, wallstreet, and other private companies are just "too big to fail".  I'd like for ANY OF YOU KNOW IT ALL DUMBSHIT PARTISAN RETARDS to name ONE industry that isn't heavily subsidized in some way by the government nowadays. 

Agriculture, healthcare, defense, higher education, etc.  EVERYTHING is a fucking racket!  The worker needs a right and a voice........as corrupt as some unions are they still serve a purpose.  It will be a dark day in American history when we all become disposable corporate slaves culled like cattle when our overlords cease to see our worth.  The corporations don't give a flying fuck about you or this country.  Wake up and pull your wannabe fag dicks out of your mouth and grow up!

Wha wha...........and guess what the security guards they took hostage are probably part of a fucking union you dumbshit.  Wouldn't surprise me.  Or better yet they probably work for Wackenhut services or a handful of heavily subsidized private companies.  Have you found a job yet college boy?  Or are you still fucking beating off to Britney Spears and stealing money from your mom?

Good post MM, just keep in mind that the right pov doesn't extend outside of their own ability to consume. What their fellow American is doing down the street is of absolutely no concern to them.

MusclesMcAnus is a nurse and thus a union thug like these longshoremen trash. Stick to cleaning bedpans while most likely continuing to bankrupt whatever hospital you work for.

Also to note, unionized longshoremen are among the biggest grifters in the union world, with many of them in excess of $100,000. And another funny fact is that part of their protest involves the fact that it wasn't THEIR union being used.

Thugs through and through.

Dumbest thing I've heard in a while.

And that is the biggest straw man I've seen in a while.

One of these thugs in action.

"Dr. Loomis" reeks of another Blacken account and given that he popped up right when Blacken's posting started dying down it's almost a given that it's him. Better just to ignore the gimmick.
