So you're arguing the benefits of Unions while posting a link about how they suck?
Coal mining is dangerous but so is smoking....a point the whiny coal miner oughta' consider.

At least the douchebag was arrested. I guess that's what happens when a union goes rogue.
KELSO, Wash. – A Kelso man arrested for allegedly assaulting a guard and vandalizing a rail car at the Port of Longview was the same person who confronted a TV news crew last Thursday, police said.
Ronald Stavas, 45, was arrested Monday night and booked into the Cowlitz County Jail on four felony charges: burglary in the first degree, assault in the second degree, intimidating a witness, and sabotage.
At his initial appearance in Cowlitz County Superior Court Tuesday morning, bail was set at $50,000 for the crimes, which allegedly occurred on Sept. 8.

Having been around the Appalachian states may I say that the conditions that exist in the mines are WAY WAY different than on the docks on the West Coast .......... now. In coal mines the things that have and are going on are so far past what the Longshore guys face that it is ridiculous to compare them. A miner on strike over safety with a baseball bat is acceptable conduct, as long as he does not instigate the violence. It is a different world with different unwritten rules and someone from the PC portions of the country seldom has a grasp of the history of what made them the people they are. WE tend to make fun of them and imply they inter breed with that superior PC liberal look and fact is we don't hold a candle to those folks in personal integrity or ethics. The modern morality and correctness is rather shallow.

Today's Unions have been sold out by their I.O.'s. Hang in there Bros.
Hoffa would be proud.

 We, as a group, are such fine examples of diversity acceptance.  Reality is that bigotry is our middle name. and I don't see that ending any time soon.

Seems to me the 2 Unions need to find a good open field and settle it the old fashioned way..
