Funny you would think this would have some coverage in the national media.

Lawless: Unionized Longshoremen Take Hostages, Destroy Property in Labor Dispute - Guy Benson



The WH has said nothing about this assault, this riot occurred later in the evening after their leader R Trumka sat in the Presidential Box with Mrs Obama. No condemnation from Trumka and of course none from J Hoffa who called for violence a few days earlier.

When a local TV station sent a camera crew to get the Union side of the story they got the following 'greeting' (vid at link)

"You Want Your F---ing Camera Broken?" - Guy Benson

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."

Why would the White House comment?

Here's the Wall Street Journal's account:

Two Pacific Ports Reopen After Union Dispute - WSJ.com

Nothing about hostages being held.

Titus Pullo

It was covered in every publication and on every news channel I saw this week.

Stop making up ****.

Real World

I hope they charge everyone and anyone who damaged property, or committed any crimes. That's BS. I'll never forget the conversations I had with the honcho from the Local 22 who was trying to sell me on going union. He thought he was telling me stuff I wanted to hear, when in fact it only made me want to punch him in the face.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897
