Union workers at the American Crystal Sugar plant locked out of their jobs over a contract dispute walk the picket line. (Yahoo)

Locked out AFL-CIO union members in North Dakota are using racist slurs and hanging stuffed monkeys from a noose outside the American Crystal Sugar plant in North Dakota.
Chron.com reported:

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.

The Grand Forks Herald reported Tuesday (http://bit.ly/oQfZWj) that many of the replacement workers are from Southern states, and some are minorities.

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

  1. Sounds like a typical union to me. When will they start throwing bricks through windows?

  2. L’m shocked. Shocked, I profess. Ok, it is was, what Dims do. Then project onto conservatives. You can expect this from the Dim-Union-Trial Lawyer-MFM fascist machine.

  3. this is the democratic party at work.

    the racial slurs are against the same people that support the union’s man, obama and his ilk.

    go figure!

    dem on dem, pass the popcorn please.

  4. Oh those liberals

  5. Professor: Tell me again who are the racists?

    Now you can give any answer you wish, though the following answers will not be accepted and will not receive any course credit: Democrats, union members, give-me girls, members of the welfare classes, liberals, femi-nazis, communists, muzzies, et alia.

    The correct answer is of course the Tea Party.

  6. Run out and buy a couple of sacks of Crystal Sugar.

  7. Those union thugs are all white trailer trash! May their tornado magnet community (a trailer park, no doubt) be wiped off the map by a righteous Tea Party Tornadoe!! Better be a big one though, because we know they’re all fat from their white trash diet!!

  8. I am a little bit shocked here, usually by this point of a strike they have burned down a couple of homes and flattened a bunch of car tires.

  9. Sure, they represent the average American worker. More like they represent the average American lunatic.

  10. The WH called and the beer summit is on. Someone acted stupidly….

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

    Unless its against the minorities in the evil Tea party and GOP

  12. GTD that these dudes are not from the Tea Party.

  13. Dickless Trumka sat with Seabiscuit Obama the other night.
    This is what Obama is.

  14. re: “Union representative Mark Froemke calls the behavior “totally unacceptable” and says the union will not tolerate racism.”

    The man’s a liar. Typical North Dakota – Minnesota Democrat liberal.

  15. Sure, they don’t tolerate racism. They only tolerate intimidation, character assassination, physical violence, fraud and the abolishment of secret ballots.

  16. Betcha every one of’em drives a $45,000 leather-lined luxury crew-cab. We’ve gone from ‘over-sexed, overpaid, and over here’ to ‘under-worked, overpaid, and overtly useless’.

    I see plenty of red but not one American flag…

  17. AS USUAL, the racism is on the Left.

    MDd at #2 got it right: The Left is forever projecting their own racism and other nasty qualities onto conservatives! (In fact, my own rule of thumb now is, whatever they’re accusing us of at any given time – sexism, racism, homophobia, greed, deceit, intolerance – is precisely what they’re guilty of themselves!

    Ahem at #6: Thanks for the tip! I’m going to the store tonight anyway – I’ll be sure to pick up some Crystal brand sugar!!

  18. fukk the union workers…

  19. If I had a company in the US, I’d pull out now (same if I had one in the EU.) Find a country that is more open to investors and private corporation… like… I don’t know… China.

  20. You know these people aren’t the brightest bulbs on the X-mas tree! At a time when the sugar companies Crystal included are getting more and more of their product from overseas and selling their sugar growing land, these idiots want to raise hell when they should be thankful they have a job!

  21. Arson, vandalism, assult, mindless violence, slander, and libel yes, racism no.

    Unions are so American.

  22. Jessie, Al,??? Where are you?

  23. Perhaps someone should direct Rep Carson to this story.

  24. “[Union rep]…says the union will not tolerate racism.”

    That’s right. The Leftist class division he runs is class warfare. Leave the racism to the NAACP.

  25. To Post # 3 and # 5 Hilarious. Made Me Laugh Out Loud !!
    Keep them Coming…..

  26. Reminds me of a room full of kindergarteners wetting their pants and crying about it. Like the worlds largest temper tantrum, these times we live in. No one can take care of even the simplest problem anymore. No one responsible for anything. And no one who gives a damn about anyone except themselves. Kind of fun to watch these kids though:)

  27. This is typical behavior from Democrats. These people are violent racists to their core. They founded the KKK, and created Jim Crow laws and Black Codes. Every villain of the Civil Rights era–from Orval Faubus to Bull Connor–was a Democrat. It’s just what they do.

  28. I’m sure Fat Albert and Jessie Jackson will fly in their rent-a-mobs and hold angry, violent protests, solemn marches, locking arms with the local politicians and clergy, and then overnight prayer vigils with candles (to let the healing begin), all with round-the-clock coverage by the LSM. They’ll demand resignations, press various charges, litigate civil suits and…

    What’s that? Did I hear you right? They said no comment? Gee, how strange…

  29. Buy as much American Crystal Sugar as your cupboards can hold.

    I’m not a huge fan of American Crystal Sugar because of their stance/benefit from tarrifs, but as a company they offered a good contract in any economy. The union rejected a new contract 97% against to 3% approval, so Crystal Sugar locked them out. Crystal Sugar has been more than fair with what they offered.

    The contract was for a 15% increase over 5 years, with a couple thousand dollar bonus upfront. The sticking point is the rising cost of healthcare (hmmm…did the AFL-CIO support obamacare), where the union workers will have to pay something for healthcare now (only if they have a family), and it’s still only a couple hundred bucks a month.

    Many of the jobs are minimal skill where most learning is done through OJT, and many of the production jobs are about 40K annually salary, up to 60K when OT is included……this is not corporate greed, this is union greed.

  30. Where I can I buy American Crystal Sugar?

  31. Fire all the union members.

  32. Maddy #30

    I would expect you could find it at your local grocery store, probably in the baking aisle.

  33. 1 – The afl/cio president says to get rid of those sons of BITCHES;
    2 – obama enthusiastically supports him;
    3 – The longshormen in Washington state kidnap the security guards at a railroad yard; threaten newscasters and law enforcemeNt personnel, and cause loads of physical damage
    4 – in North Dakota, the unions members unlease their RACISM;
    CAN ANYONE SEE A PATTERN HERE?
