Ferguson Protesters Now Protesting Over Not Getting Paid


At least some of the protesters who looted, rioted, burned buildings and overturned police cars in Ferguson, Missouri, last year were promised payment of up to $5,000 per month to join the protests.

However, when the Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE), the successor group to the now-bankrupt St. Louis branch of ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), stiffed the protesters, they launched a sit-in protest at the headquarters of MORE and created a Twitter page to demand their money, the Washington Times reports.

Presidential candidate and former Rep. Allen B. West, R-Fl., noted on his website, "Instead of being thankful for getting off the unemployment line for a few weeks and having a little fun protesting, the paid rioters who tore up Ferguson, MO, are protesting again.

"First of all, can you even imagine getting paid $5,000.00 a month for running around holding a sign and burning down an occasional building? That's around $1,250.00 per week. Try making that at McDonalds or Starbucks."

So it looks like instead of being outraged over what occurred, people were paid to feign outrage in order to increase tensions (imo). I am curious how many other protests were shams as well in order to push a false agenda in some of the other incidents, like Boston and in places like Ohio.

$5,000 to cause hate, discontent and to destroy property.

Idiots. Paid to betray their fellow Americans. Hell mend them.

this is priceless irony at its finest! if youre dumb enough to belive anyone will pay you anything to protest then you deserve to be stiffed!

that MORE orginization sounds like a scam also.


Being dumb enough to believe the "Hands up, don't shoot" false narrative, tells educated people all they need to know about these bottom dwellers.

I heard this on WABC 770 radio this afternoon and had quite a laugh because of it. Here we have "community organizers" like BO and Sharpton trying their damnest to stir up the hatred between factions and even after they PAY to get the violence they want, well they just got nowhere didn't they? There is a reason for this and I am amazed that the sellouts in government refuse to believe it, but as Napoleon once said, an army marches on it stomach, and fat and happy people never revolt, period. The US government has manipulated the price of food for decades, keeping it affordable just for this reason. Are they getting stupid or what? If they want civil disruption what they have to do is let them go hungry for a while and THEN stir up the pot. Otherwise, even the oppressed realize that they have it pretty darn good compared to most of the destitute around the globe. Why screw it up?

Ask your self when's the last time you heard of national press discuss a white man or Hispanic shot by police it happens.Then ask yourself why is it treated diffrent and you have your answer.

Being dumb enough to believe the "Hands up, don't shoot" false narrative, tells educated people all they need to know about these bottom dwellers.


Ask yourself why when an Hispanic or white is shot by police it gets a mention in the local paper. But a black man is shot and it's national news. This is the question and when you figure this out than you understand the game being played.
