While the Minutemen protest, the Teamster try to recruit the Mexican Drivers.
Something has to be done.
Those look like pretty safe and solid trucks to me. Glad to see the cops there keeping tabs on the Teamsters.
Translation of the Teamsters’ flyer:
The administrators of the US and of Mexico are using NAFTA to ignore the safety of American and Mexican drivers and of the public.
The workers in Mexico and the US need reform in commercial politics and labor law.
Now is when we have organizations for the improvement of benefits, hours, and work conditions.
The hour to resist this movement to open the (”fro...” “frontera” = border, perhaps?) and break the union is now!
So maybe they’re not trying to recruit the Mexican drivers, but galvanize Spanish-speaking Latino American Teamsters.
Wonder how many cents per mile they haul for? They might could save some companies some money you know....
Something WAS done. This was shunted off into the blogs forum, where it won’t be seen because blogger pictures are, you know, just not as reliable as MSM photoshopping.
I’m sure they kept an especially close eye on that one senior with the bluecollar hands holding the big American flag - he looked particularly shifty.
Roger that. And I bet they don’t lurk on highway overpasses during their off hours taking shots at non-union drivers either!
Thanks - they would not let us have one
Look at the black semi making a left. Swinging wide is necessary but into the opposing traffics lane is not.

I’ll bet he was just nervous, first time in the U.S. and all.
But I see trucks here in my home town doing that all the time. We try to give ‘em the space they need.
He probably wanted to be sure to avoid clipping the black car illegally parked too close to the intersection.
that was my thought.
I guess we are no longer a sovereign nation.
We no longer have a southern border.
I see.....dead people!
Man, look at that black truck. Not to be trivial or childish, but haven’t they heard of truck stops where you can wash your truck? Maybe it’s better they don’t, that way we can spot them, before the mufflers come flying off into our windshields...
I Feel Violated ping
Where, when and how? Which pic has the recruiting Teamsters in it?
