Protesting to make money
There was plenty of spontaneous, legitimate outrage over the
situation in Ferguson, Missouri.
But hundreds were there because they were being paid. They came
from outside Missouri to earn their paychecks.
Now they’re protesting because not all of them got paid.
Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE), supported
financially by billionaire activist George Soros, advertised for outsiders to
come to Ferguson and protest.
They were promised $300 for travel and applications had to be
submitted two weeks before the show-up date.
Lisa Fithian trained demonstrators
to “simulate chaos.”
MORE founder Jeff
Ordower got a big payout. He also is an organizer for the SEIU and ACORN.
Millenial Activists
United got more than $2,000 from the Soros front organization.
Bringing in hired
guns to “protest” (after rehearsals) does a disservice to all the people who
were spontaneously outraged by what happened in Ferguson. Citizens who didn’t
ask for money to do it.
