After a year-long dispute between a Washington union and United Grain Corp., the National Labor Relations Board is charging union picketers with not only attacking company workers, but with threatening to rape one manager’s daughter and issuing veiled threats to another’s children.

That sounds like standard operating procedure for union thugs.

I was cornered and threatened by two union thugs when I was a teen, just one month older than the minimum to work legally. They informed me that I would get hurt if I didn’t join the union, which guaranteed minimum wage in return for nearly half of what I would have earned at that summer job.

I have had an absolute hatred for unions ever since, and I will not hire union members, negotiate with unions, or buy anything with the union label.

Do you really believe the mafia doesn’t control unions?

I suppose so I don’t recall the Mafia going after their enemy’s children.

the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) in Feb. 2013, after months of “fruitless negotiations” and allegations that a union member sabotaged company equipment, spawning the escalating fight. In a filing with the NLRB last week, National Labor Relations Board regional director Ronald Hooks accused the longshoremen of a laundry list of violent and dangerous tactics.

I'm not shocked this is about the longshoremen's union...

They give the Mafia a good name...

I know if someone threatened to rape my daughter...it would be the last thing he ever thought about doing...hard to think without your brain since it would be spattered against the wall...

Actually they do in some areas. Not in others. But they don’t deal with children or families.

It’s always seemed to me that unions are exactly like the folks that they’re “supposed” to be protecting you FROM!

They are the folks they are protecting you from, and protection rackets disgust me.

“Nice business/family you’ve got there. It would be a shame if anything happened to change that.”
