Union goon assaults TV reporter: "You want your f*cking camera broke, cocksucker?"

A jurisdicitonal dispute between two unions in Washington state has placed union goonery on display for all to see. A reporter from KGW-TV in Portland, Oregon was trying to do his job, when a man walked off the set of "On The Waterfront" to confront him. "You want your f*cking camera broke, cocksucker?" He also called the journalist a cock bite, which is an insult heretofore I was unfamiliar with. My life seems so much fuller now.

From the Daily Caller:

EGT Development is a contracting company that operates a grain terminal in Longview, Wash., which is at the center of an International Longshore and Warehouse Union work stoppage. The Portland television news crew, from NBC affiliate KGW, proceeded to film papers posted on the building's exterior wall. That didn't sit so well with the already clearly upset union member.

On Wednesday in Longview, hundreds of International Longshore and Warehouse Union members, upset over EGT's decision to hire workers from a different union, stormed the facility and blocked train tracks there, escalating a longstanding labor dispute.

By Thursday, union workers walked off the job at four other Washington ports, including one in Seattle, and a federal judge was warning the ILWU to stand down. The ILWU contends that it did not call for the work stoppage.

"Hey, get your f*cking camera out of here, that's none of your f*cking business, you cock bite," the union member said to the reporter while grabbing his camera. "Unless you want [to be arrested for] trespassing, get the f*ck out of here now. Get out of here now! Don"t f*ck with me partner!"
