There’s nothing like a little union goonery to get the blood flowing.
Keep in mind, this is the core of Obama’s base of support.
From Michelle Malkin
The hits keep on coming. Here’s another fine specimen of Big Labor civility:
At AFSCME’s “solidarity” rally in Providence, Rhode Island on Tuesday, a cameraman was accosted by a fuming pro-union protester. The cameraman had his back to the goon, who appears to accost him unprovoked. The goon screams:
“I’ll f**k you in the ass, you faggot!”
His shouting escalates and other union supporters try to intervene as he threatened the cameraman, but he continues to foam at the mouth.
The “solidarity” mob finally starts chanting “Hey, hey, ho, ho, union-busting’s got to go” to drown out the goon’s snit fit. He yells that he will “follow you out of here.”
The eruption starts at 7:32 in this video.
The cameraman who was accosted in the video is Adam Cole. He works for “We the People of Rhode Island,” a public access TV show in Rhode Island. Another witness and citizen journalist at the rally who had a video camera, Randy Swanson of Oathkeepers-Rhode Island, filmed the confrontation. Swanson tells me that criminal charges against the union supporter are pending — and that Providence Capitol Police, Providence Police Department and Rhode Island State Police are investigating other incidents that also occurred that day involving belligerent union supporters.
Remember: “Every once and awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary.” It’s the union way.

By the way: Mainstream media coverage of the Providence union grievance convergence neglected to mention the profanity-spewing pro-union protester’s outburst.
Surprise, surprise.
