Another factor in the Ferguson equation is a group called MORE. I'll bet Lois Lerner & Co. didn't make them wait long for THEIR tac-exempt status!!!!!

One of the groups deeply involved in causing chaos in Ferguson is Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE), a 501(c)(4) nonprofit.

MORE is the rebranded Missouri branch of the former Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), which filed for bankruptcy in late 2010. That ACORN state chapter reconstituted itself in December 2009 as MORE under orders from ACORN's national headquarters.

President Obama used to work for ACORN, and he represented it in court as a lawyer.

MORE has been active in the protests and in efforts to free jailed demonstrators so they can continue vandalizing businesses, intimidating perceived adversaries, setting fires, throwing projectiles and urine at cops, and engaging in the left's usual modes of so-called nonviolent protest. MORE believes that protesters should be given a blank check to inflict whatever harm they wish on the community in pursuit of social justice.

MORE is also a recipient of taxpayer funding – and to no one's surprise, it is not a good steward of those dollars. MORE received $21,000 for its "foreclosure prevention" efforts but "did not fully comply" with the rules, according to the St. Louis city comptroller's "fiscal monitoring review" released a few days before Brown was shot.

MORE is one of the now defunct ACORN network's most active renamed state chapters. .......read more....
