~ “I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan.
Watchdog.org’s Jason Hart (an occasional contributor at LaborUnionReport.com) has done yeoman’s work in compiling Labor Department data exposing the hypocrisy of today’s union bosses.
Whilst they fund “grass-roots” campaigns like Occupy Wall Street and Fight for $15, and use class-warfare rhetoric, today’ union bosses are, in reality, doing quite well raking in the big bucks—all paid for by their members’ union dues.
While unions call for tax and minimum-wage increases to fix “income inequality,” reports to the U.S. Department of Labor reveal 472 union officers and employees were paid more than $250,000 in 2013.
In all, America’s 100 highest-paid union officers and employees received $54.8 million taken from workers last year.
Union fat cats live high on the hog, yet their minions and sock puppets declare war on the wrong entities. If they really want to take one percenters to task, they have only to look within starting with the likes of Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers who earned $560,000 in 2013.
Union Thugs Attack AFP Tent at Michigan Right to Work Protest; Masked Goons Destroy Hot Dog Guys Catering Equipment and Products Screenshot
Clint Tarver Lansing Michigan’s “Favorite” Hot Dog Guy, discusses the violent attack on the Americans for Prosperity tent at an anti Right-To-Work rally on December 11th, 2012 by union goons:
Below is a photo of one of the culprits wearing a mask that took part in the destruction of Clint Tarver’s catering equipment and products entering the AFP tent seconds before the incident occurred.
Union Thug Wearing Mask Enter AFP Tent at Michigan Right to Work Protest Seconds Before Clint Tarver’s catering equipment and products were destroyed along with the AFP tent by union goons – SCREENSHOT 001
…Tarver was hired by Americans for Prosperity — which supports right-to-work legislation Gov. Rick Snyder signed into law Tuesday — to serve hot dogs to their supporters inside a tent they erected on the Capitol lawn. …
… ‘I was trying to salvage some of my stuff but my friend, he works at the Capitol, he said, ‘Don’t worry about that. You gotta get out of there,’’ Tarver said. ‘So, I crawled out of the tent as they cut it. My tables were being spilled and stepped on. It was all just destroyed. I just couldn’t believe what I was hearing and seeing.’…
As reported by MICHIGAN LIVE, Linda Tarver, wife of Clint Tarver stated on Facebook that:
….union protesters called her husband ‘an Uncle Tom [n-word]’ when he attempted to retrieve his equipment from the collapsed tent….
…Community members have rallied in support, raising more than $10,000 to replace Tarver’s damaged equipment and offset losses.
‘We’re just overwhelmed by the outpouring of prayers and donations and generosity,’ she said.
As for her husband, he is fine, she said.
‘He really showed to me a great restraint and humility,’ she said. ‘He didn’t get in a fist fight; he didn’t let the loss … really take the best of him….
Indeed, Mr. Tarver showed a great deal of restraint and humility. After the occurrence of this vile incident, he and his wife prayed.
Besides destroying Tarver’s catering equipment, products and hurling racial epithets, union thugs felt no remorse for their actions. “…They said he deserved what he got and he was on the wrong side….”
The reporting of violence committed by the KKK aka union members in Lansing, Michigan by Progressive news outlets is troubling.
In spite of the many reports and videos that clearly tell the story, leaving nothing to doubt, Progressive media outlets report feign ignorance by reporting to the public “Details are still unclear, but the AFP tent was torn down and destroyed around noon.”
On Wednesday, Dana Loesch interviewed Tarver on her radio show (audio below).
Below is a full video of the attack on Tarver’s set up inside the AFP tent.

WARNING: This unhyphenated American is about to unleash the race card on Progressives (Black and White) below.
If you would prefer to avoid my thoughts on Tuesday’s assault against Lansing, Michigan businessman and “favorite” hot dog guy, Clint Tarver, by union thugs, I will not take it personal but it would make a great stocking stuffer for your Progressive relatives, friends and/or associates, if for no other reason than to piss them off.
UNION ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY AND THUG CULTURE EXPOSED
The treatment of Tarver is shameful and unforgivable! Yet it exposes the entitlement mentality and culture of unions who demand not their right to work but their terms for compensation while at the same time depriving the rest of us of our right to work, choice to belong or not to belong to a union along with the right to own a business.

RACISM AND CLASS WARFARE
Even more unnerving is that the vicious assaults on Tarver, a working American, businessman, Black American, true patriot and on other Conservatives remind me very much of the handling of the racist attacks and lynchings by the KKK back in the day by many in the media.
The violence, chaos and verbal assaults that took place in Lansing, Michigan by Progressives this week are no different.
In the past, financial gain and the ability to establish political and economic control was a motive for lynchings.
Today, the same is a motive for union goons and comrades to attack the liberties of those of us who will fall into line with their agenda and power grab.
CALLING FOLKS OUT
As witnessed in the many videos, the majority of protesters were Caucasian, however, there were plenty of Black people visible throughout the crowd who allowed the thuggery to unfold as many did 100 plus years ago when Blacks were set on fire and lynched.
The difference is that 100 plus years ago, Blacks were unable to rescue those in danger out of fear for their own lives and that of their loved ones.
However, one hundred plus years later, the Blacks who were present Tuesday were not only witness but party to the heinous actions of the KKK aka unions.
I am calling out every Black man and woman who backed the unions at Tuesday’s protest and the assault against Mr. Tarver.
I am calling out those individuals who witnessed and/or participated in Tuesday’s attacks against Conservatives, in particular all consider themselves victims and oppressed.
I am calling out Jesse Jackson who was at the capital in Lansing, Michigan on Tuesday.
I am calling out Al Sharpton, Sheila Jackson, Lee, Jesse Jackson, Jr., James Clyburn, the NAACP, Tavis Smiley, Cornel West, Michael Eric Dyson, Jamie Foxx, MSNBC Touré and the rest ofObama’s overseers and race baiters.
Most all, I am calling out Black America.
I CAN’T HEAR YOU!
WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?
WHY SO QUIET?
The silence of Black America and Obama’s overseers in the attacks of Kenneth Gladney and Clint Tarvers is overwhelming proof that Black Americans have sold their souls, their children’s and grandchildren’s souls and the future of all back into slavery in the name of Barack Hussein Obama, their messiah.
Just ask Jamie Foxx. He gets it.
Yes indeed, I went there.
What?
What?
What?

THE DARK SOUL OF LIBERALISM
One hundred years ago, it was about race and oppression.
Over the heads of many, Tuesday’s protest and violence was about class warfare, oppression, unions, their Communists, power aka THEM AGAINST WE, THE PEOPLE and race as incited Monday by Barack Hussein Obama and fellow Progressives.
SUPPORT CLINT TARVER
Americans throughout the nation, regarding of race, ethnicity and political affiliation have joined the people of Michigan in their support of Clint Tarver by making donations to cover Tarver’s loss.

Screenshot – Union Thugs Destroy Americans for Prosperity Tent while Occupied with women and children at Michigan Right to Work Protest, Lansing, Michigan. 12112012
In the video, one actually witnesses the wolf pack working itself into a rabid frenzy.In the first video, one witnesses the huge crowd of union slugs surrounding the Americans for Prosperity tent at today’s protest in Lansing Michigan just prior to the destruction of the tent, which at the time of destruction was fully OCCUPIED.
Toward the end of the video, protesters can be heard shouting, “This is our house. Our house. Our house.”
I beg to differ. We are living in the United States of America, which is the land of the free for all.
WARNING: What you will see and hear in the videos below leaves much to be desired and is not for the faint of heart.
The following video is several minutes long but it displays union thuggery at its nastiest.
The following video is another view of the assault from the outside of the tent.
Numerous union marshals (yellow vests) and captains (orange vests) were assigned by the unions to the Lansing, Michigan protest supposedly to prevent the chaos that erupted today in their presence.
Conservative Steven Crowder just sent this out…
The video is self explanatory.
‘I was sucker-punched four times on camera, without retaliation, choked, and the AFP tent is torn to the ground with women and children inside of it.’
Extremely violent footage. Please post for truth.
WARNING: FOOTAGE BRUTAL
As of this moment, I have heard nothing from the lame stream media about the assaults and thuggery by Barack Obama’s Progressive union slugs. Clearly, every one of these bastards should be thrown in jail but they are part of Obama’s civilian force hence they will remain free.
Please pass this on. Let the world see the Communist scum who has Obama’s support.
“Around 200 far left SEIU protesters were bused into the Dunkin Donuts parking lot in Carlisle, Pennsylvania for a protest against Mitt Romney on Friday. The screaming protesters stormed the franchise – terrifying customers and workers – and posted signs about the 99% on the windows. The union protesters were in town attending a leadership conference.
…The members of Service Employees International Union picked Dunkin’ Donuts because the chain is partially owned by Bain Capital, the private equity firm that Romney used to head….”
DD is as popular as it is successful. Hence, the successes of both entities are the American dream.
It is the actions of SEIU union thugs not Bain Capital or Mitt Romney that harms poor and middle class working Americans bringing to the forefront that unions and their membership is the true enemy. How about THAT?
Finally, the owners of this DD enterprise, a privately owned business, should sue the SEIU for any damages and lost revenue incurred due to their protest and bullying.
The owner of several Connecticut nursing homes is calling for a criminal probe after union workers staged a mass walkout earlier this month, allegedly vandalizing and sabotaging the health care facilities in the process. Among the allegations is that the workers, supposedly disgruntled over protracted labor talks, switched around the IDs of Alzheimer’s patients.
The alleged sabotage, which also purportedly included tampering with medication records and removing patient identification bands, occurred in three of the company’s five Connecticut facilities in the overnight hours before the July 3 strike, according to police reports and the complaint HealthBridge Management filed Thursday with the Chief State’s Attorney office…
… ‘It’s especially heinous to do it to somebody with Alzheimer’s,” said a HealthBridge spokesman, adding that dietary information also was compromised…’
At the Newington Health Care Center, in Newington, Conn., police reported that ‘several items were discovered missing,’ including six handles used to operate patient lifts for individuals with mobility problems. Several stethoscopes and blood pressure cuffs were also reported missing….
… ‘Also, dietary blue stickers affixed to the door name tags were removed,’ the report continued. A source with knowledge of HealthBridge’s operations told The DC that those stickers identify residents that have dysphagia, or trouble swallowing. Those patients have special dietary restrictions to prevent them from choking….’
Democrats Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Gov. Dannel Malloy and Attorney General George Jepsen who has since recused himself from the case fully stand behind SEIU who is accusing the nursing homes of “inhumane and unlawful actions” not towards the patients but towards the SEIU workers for refusing to meet their demands.
In reality, the SEIU union workers fit the bill of “inhumane and unlawful actions” based on their callous and potentially deadly actions of sabotage, which placed the lives of patients at risk.
Every one of these union thugs deserves to be terminated for these despicable actions. Doing so would immediately improve the safety factor for the patients at these nursing homes. H/t BREITBART.
