>>Which all goes to prove that when it comes to b*lls, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters are hard to beat.<<

The Teamsters are a bunch of professional thugs.

Every Teamster president since 1952, except the current one, has been indicted on federal charges. All of those have done hard time in prison except Ron Carey who beat the rap with an acquittal in 2001 and Jackie Presser who died after sentencing but before reporting to the big house in 1988.

The Teamsters' Central States Pension Fund has been a cash cow for the mafia for years, supposedly this ended with a 1989 racketeering settlement that put the feds in control of the union for a while.

These guys make ALPA look like a bunch of choirboys.

Hey, you gotta problem wit dat?
