Police confirm racial incidents at sugar plant

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — Police say union supporters have directed racial slurs and racist symbols at replacement workers and security personnel outside an American Crystal Sugar plant in North Dakota.

Traill County Sheriff Mike Crocker says there have been racial statements made to security people outside of the company's Hillsboro facility. He says he recently saw a monkey-like figure hanging from a noose attached to a large inflatable rat outside the plant. He says it was removed the next day.

I always make it a point to look for the MADE IN USA label on products because I want to support my fellow Americans over foreign competition. Lately I've added the practice of looking for the union label as well because I want to deliberately avoid those products. I really don't want to support those thugs at all if I can help it.

this is another BCTGM union local from MN. we have been keeping tabs on the situation up there.
at my next union meeting when i will ask "how are the tea party racists", i will gladly bring this story up after they cannot provide an instance of racism form the TP.

I'm guessing that there will not be any investigation of hate crimes from Obama's DOiJ.
