In reality, Gene it is you,I, and us or we, you,and they that provide the funding. While true that Corporate Marxists or Marxism does distribute the funds, it used to be money, to them. it is raised by the prices they charge for their Made in China products. President Trump is trying to put a stop to it but is catching all sorts of grief.

, 28, was arrested after causing a disturbance in a restaurant on the Capitol Square, according to Madison police and video of the incident. Videos of the arrest some circulating on social media and others provided by the Madison Police Department show as many as five officers taking Johnson to the sidewalk and carrying him to a police squad car after Johnson initially resisted arrest. Johnson who identified himself in the video as Yeshua Musa when he was inside the restaurant is among a group of activists seen on Madisons streets in recent weeks protesting police brutality and the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. . . .On Tuesday afternoon, Johnson walked around the patio of Coopers Tavern, carrying a baseball bat over his shoulder, according to video provided by Madison Police. Johnson then followed a white customer inside the restaurant, calling him a racist through a bullhorn and using profanities, the video shows. Johnson then went back to the patio and spoke with more customers.

Protester Ebony Anderson-Carter said the anger and destruction was spurred in part because state and local officials refuse to listen to protesters' calls for change.
She said while the Forward and Heg statues stood for good causes and movements, those in power are not taking that same stand with the Black Lives Matter movement. Having those statues prominently displayed in Madison creates a "false representation of what this city is," she said.
"I just hope some people realize that sometimes you need to talk to people in a language that only they understand," Anderson-Carter said. "Stop trying to make us speak to you in your language."

Protesters set their sights on another statue, one of Col. Hans Christian Heg at the top of King Street, tore it down and dragged it into Lake Monona. Heg was a Norwegian immigrant and journalist who died of his wounds at the Battle of Chickamauga fighting to preserve the United States and end slavery.......

It’s not about BLM either. It’s about censorship and destroying American History. They are trying to tear us apart.

I hope this fact gets out to the Norskis in Minnesota
Do you actually believe that they will care?
They will probably apologize to the mob for the statue being there.

In the excerpt they failed to mention he was attacked by the mob, kicked and punched by them, at least once in the head and may have a concussion.
Typical reporting on the nationwide Simmer of Love.
Anyone arrested yet? The first one to come to him was a burly woman with a mask on, with others behind him. And he appeared to be taking a video, not picture.

I have a friend in the central valley CA who as a youngster picked cotton along with his family.
He’s white, not that there is anything wrong with that...

The summer I turned 19 (1964) five of us East Tennessee Satte college freshmen piled into a VW Bus and headed across country to work in the bean canneries up in Washington state. we were all white, I think. Didn’t pay much attention to race back then, we all needed the money for college.

Wonder if she speaks 7.62mm?
