long time trouble maker mark crapper got his ass kicked at local 384 member meeting. this guy is anti whoever is in office and one of bonaduches wing men jumped him and taught him a lesson. next time maybe the crapper will keep his mouth shut.

Violence against a fellow Teamster, especially at a membership meeting, is one of the most serious violations of our Union. Civil discourse and debate should always be preferred over violence.

[Package car Rob]

but you do not know this character. he debates over every little thing. even president bonaduce was laughing about it after the meeting. believe you me if there was someone to be put in their place this it is. you have to agree that some people deserve it.

Union meetings are supposed to be a venue where the members get updates on their local union. But once these candidates are in office for a few years they forget how they got there and why they're there. Local 384's President seems to think that inducing members to cold cock other members is the way to shut them up. Once again Local 384's membership meetings are turning into the circus they were when Bob Keller was President. If you want to come to the meeting and stick your head up their asses and talk about how well they are doing all are welcome to come and do so. But if you want to know what they are doing with our money or want to know why they aren't addressing a problem you have you don't get an explanation.

I agree that violence at union meeting should not happen, but I've been to a few when certain members would get up to "showboat" and frankly I would have liked to knock the s##t out of them. They only want to hear themselves talk. I'm sure we all know there are members that think they HAVE to say something at every meeting.

Lest we forget, this is the type of thing the IRB gets into.IF a police report is filed. It's also one of the most serious violations of the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as amended (LMRDA.) It's a Title 3 violation, one of the most serious. And if my memory serves me correctly can be punishable by up to 5 years in federal prison; LMRDA reads

"Bill of Rights - Union members have:

● equal rights to participate in union activities

● freedom of speech and assembly

● voice in setting rates of dues, fees, and assessments

● protection of the right to sue
● safeguards against improper discipline

Protection for Exercising LMRDA Rights - A union

or any of its officials may not fine, expel, or otherwise

discipline a member for exercising any LMRDA right.

Prohibition Against Violence - No one may use or

threaten to use force or violence to interfere with a union
member in the exercise of LMRDA rights. "


The ass whoppee could, theoretically claim he was simply attempting to execise his rights, and the violence (or threat thereof), was used in a manner which was intended to deny him those rights.

Things get a little goofy during Elections, whether International, or Local-- but in the end we're all still Teamsters. We don't have to love each other, we just have to try our best to band together to fight our REAL enemies (who also eat this kinda **** up). As long as we are fighting each other, we cannot fully unite against them.

I think it is ironic that our union leadership engages in employer like tactics to divide the membership because they are in fear of being overthrown if the members were united.

crapper gets richly deserved ass whooping. bonerdouche gets bad rap.


over and out

I found it totally unacceptable that a fight broke out at our meeting. Everyone should have the right to speak. The guy that got hurt may have asked some questions that others didnt like but that is no reason for violence. There was some talk that the union agents may have provoked the one guy to fight, I hope this isnt true. I think this nonsense will keep some members from coming to the meetings so I hope the board members will prevent this from happening again.

[Package car Rob]

you can count on fatass and bonerdouche provoking the fight they were seen laughing it up after the meeting. half of the executive board has already been convicted of retaliating against the crapper for opposing them in an election. http://www.ibtvote.o.../2006esd295.htm
and they picked the right guy to do the job this time. check out his record.
a guy like this is a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. i am glad i do not have to share a roof with him.

Wow, it looks like the whooper is a member of the he man woman beating club. What Steve Gallagher will hang with as long as he is allowed to hang.

Clearly you need to familiarize yourself with the forum rules before you go posting things that could bring harm to another Teamster Brother. I have provided some excerpts below for you to review so you don't make the same mistake for a 4th time (that is, unless it's not a mistake and you're being willfully malicious). I have reported your post and the link will come down as soon as an admin has had a chance to review.

Someone said above, "Violence against a fellow Teamster, especially at a membership meeting, is one of the most serious violations of our Union." How serious of a violation of our Union is it when a disgrunted member can come on a Teamster forum and lodge baseless allegations against members of an Executive Board about orchestrating an attack on another Teamster without providing any shred of evidence? How serious of a violation of our Union is it when a disgruntled member posts the police record of a fellow Teamster brother for the sole purpose of harming his reputation? What someone did almost 20 years ago does not prove that the person is guilty of anything that happened in the present.

It has come to my attention that some users are engaging in the practice of posting other people's personal information on TNET. This practice is strictly forbidden on TNET, and posts which publicly expose anyone's private information will be removed, and may result in the poster's privileges being suspended or revoked. Personal information shall be considered to include, but not be limited to real names of TNET members - whether such names are actually real or not is irrelevant, the attempt to "out" someone is hereby proscribed; personal addresses and/or telephone numbers (including IBT/local union-provided cellular telephones); social security numbers; workplaces; names/personal details of family members of those the poster is attempting to harrass/"out"; financial data; legal history; and/or any other information deemed by the TNET staff to be personal in nature.

We do not condone, permit, or otherwise support any actions which might potentially bring harm to *ANYONE*. Period. As providing someone's private information might contribute to the possibility that that person could be harmed, TNET will begin taking a very hard line against any violations of this rule

The crapper gets whooped by a woman beater and sent out in an ambulance after pissing himself. It doesn't get any better than this. Priceless I say PRICELESS!!!!

You know what I find interesting? In this thread, you revel over what happened to Mark Capper, yet in your post in the Smack Talk forum you make a claim that his right to free speech was somehow infringed upon. If you're really that happy over Capper having his punk card pulled, why would you post personal information about the person who defended himself and why would you even care about Capper's rights? If the ass-whooping was so richly-deserved as you claim, why attack the guy who whooped him? Because you're a sheltered sociopath living alone who spends his free time on Tnet attacking others and making outrageous claims you can't possibly prove (behind the safety of anonymity and a keyboard, just like a true coward); and over the years you've created so many throwaway accounts on Tnet that you forget which garbage you posted under which account.

Here's the question that really begs to be asked: If Capper was truly victimized; if members of the Executive Board orchestrated a physical altercation, why haven't the police arrested anybody? I have an answer for that too - because you weren't even there. You slipped up again when you posted your silly theory in Smack Talk by beginning sentences with "story is..." and " also heard that..." in relation to the incident. That's definitely not something that an eyewitness would say when recalling something they saw first-hand, is it? OR...you really were there, but you're afraid to speak in absolute terms for fear of any possible legal repercussions.

You're a complete fraud, a coward, and a disgrace to the entire Teamsters Union.
