Employees of the American Red Cross in Philadelphia went on strike last Thursday to protest wages.
Union thugs even went so far as to block a blood shipment from reaching its destination to save lives. The Teamsters Union along with SEIU (Obama’s favorite union) blocked at least one delivery during the day and only relented when they were told the blood was needed to save a two-year old boy.
The American Red Cross obtained an injunction against the unions to prevent strikers from blocking further blood deliveries.
The union workers went on strike just after midnight when their contract expired. The Teamsters claim they’re protesting working conditions that endanger the blood supply.
Oddly enough, endangering the blood supply bothers them, but endangering lives by blocking blood deliveries does not.
Sounds like more union thuggery to me.
