A handful (8 by my count) stinking little sniveling little worms kept UNION longshoremen from unloading cargo in a secure area of a port???
Something smells here...
I could have swore, at one time I thought Union thugs were pretty tough...Nobody could push them around...
Guess they are a bunch of [use your imagination]...
Why not? Those liberals have hero’s like Mao, Stalin, Abbas, Arafat.
I don’t believe for a second the union isn’t involved in this. Intimidated by a have dozen students? Seriously?
Again? Didn’t this just happen last month with the same result?
I’m so tempted to think that these people should be deprived forever of products/services/therapies developed or produced in Israel.
They’re all, 8 or so protestors and union thugs, Nazis in the SS/Gestapo tradition. We fought a war to wipe away these genocidal shits but their ideology was maintained within the American democrat party.
Maybe ships should shun the Port of Oakland and the rest of the Bay Area. Lefties will claim a victory even with the negative impact on the economy. They took a stand! They showed The Man!
So this is how bad security has become at our nation's ports?
Sounds like somebody got payed off. Union thugs are a greedy bunch of fat rats.
This was posted by Artichoke Grower last night, and my post was as follows: “The next port of call for the Israeli containership would be Los Angeles anyway, so as those costs are fixed into the voyage already they have the drayage costs to Northern California to contend with only. It’s cheaper to truck North what freight they couldn’t offload in Oakland than having the vessel tied up by the protesters.”
It’s a damned shame we have idiots in Oakland, but they seem to be everywhere in the U.S.A anymore.
I don't believe that Israel is a NAFTA member whom could recover costs from the protesters, union, city and state. Too bad.
If I were located in Oakland and I was feeling froggy, I’d get my buddies together and stomp Commie nuts into the concrete.
(It’s time to present leftists with serious consequences for their conduct; it’s what leftists understand.)
The Longshormen have become a bunch of sissies. Historically it was the Longshoremen who did the threatening.
(sniff), (sniff) Smells like bullsh*t.
I wonder what would happen if 200 Tea Partiers tried to block the unloading of a particular ship.
