    Default Union workers: racial slurs and racist symbols

    Police confirm racial incidents at sugar plant

    GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — Police say union supporters have directed racial slurs and racist symbols at replacement workers and security personnel outside an American Crystal Sugar plant in North Dakota.

    Traill County Sheriff Mike Crocker says there have been racial statements made to security people outside of the company's Hillsboro facility. He says he recently saw a monkey-like figure hanging from a noose attached to a large inflatable rat outside the plant. He says it was removed the next day.

    unpossible. i've been told union workers care about all workers.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    But you believed what they 'confirmed' in Yurtroll's OP.

    Without question.

    Does that make you a badge-blower?

    and once again \\\legiontroll/// trolls the friendly skies.

    funny how you all of a sudden have nothing to say about racism, but if this was about tea party folks, you would have a dozen threads about it and and hundreds of posts.

    troll fail

    did you read the full article?

    Union representative Mark Froemke calls the behavior "totally unacceptable" and says the union will not tolerate racism.

    Nope.


    I am saying that the board cop-hater has suddenly acquired a taste for accepting the word of a police officer - when it suited him.

    Union representative Mark Froemke calls the behavior "totally unacceptable" and says the union will not tolerate racism.
