[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 1183673, member: 2193"] Agreed, this is only the news article but the Teamsters have not come out with their version of their side. There are pictures online of local 727 picketing outside a funeral home so it is a fact that occured. It's not too much of a stretch to envision some members being, as you said, idiots. The only thing I saw online was that a Teamsters spokesman denied the allegations but I wonder how/why a judge had to order them to stop doing something they claim they weren’t doing in the first place? The appellate court ordered the Teamsters on July 25 to “refrain from conveying any actual or veiled threats against any person, also, refrain from obstructing, hindering, impeding or blocking any person’s entry to or exit from any funeral site or any facility containing a funeral site.” Regardless, even staging a quiet picket line outside a funeral home during a funeral is the epitome of low rent. You can have differences over a contract but there is a time and place for everything and outside a funeral home is neither. The Teamsters have been on strike since July 1 after rejecting the company’s offer of nine percent raises for all union members over the next two years. [/QUOTE]
