Tea Party in Action, Missouri Style

Headline:
After Hearing What a Tea Party Group Recently Did in Ferguson, You Likely Won’t Be Surprised That You Haven’t Heard About It

"The story won’t spark controversy or make many front pages, but there is some good happening in Ferguson, Missouri, in the aftermath of the unrest following the police-involved shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown.

Many local businesses in Ferguson were vandalized, looted, and even set on fire as demonstrators took to the streets to protest the shooting. Sadly, innocent business owners have been left to foot the bills. This is where the St. Louis Tea Party realized they could help.

The group spread the word of the “BUYcott” event on Facebook, hoping to get at least 20 people to show up and spend their hard-earned money at local Ferguson businesses on August 21. They apparently ended up with a group of about 40 “(mostly) white people” — and something amazing happened.

They reportedly targeted small businesses who “were hit hard by violence–violence committed (mostly) by out of town agitators, criminals, vandals, and hooligans.”"
Taking some business to the Ferguson shop keepers is part of the old America. In the New America, the Leftist politicians get rich, live in gated communities, and then have Holder demand more integration in other communities.

And like the title of the article says, any actions like this (outside of the government, fer cryin' out loud) will not show up on the Leftist media news. It's hard to make a racist connection, doncha know. Much like the Christian NGOs that worked on the Katrina disaster for years afterward, there's no story there that any Leftist wants to hear.
