Racist union in Seattle

3 ferry ticket sellers charged in theft in the Seattle PI for 2006-05-10:

The Inlandboatmen's Union of the Pacific, which represented the three workers in appealing their termination, has alleged that the three were targeted because they are black. Officials there could not be reached late Monday.

Ferry officials said they were fired because of evidence that they took money, not because of their race.

Need I say more?
