REVEREND BILLY AND THE CHURCH OF STOP SHOPPING

About two weeks ago I reported on an organization called Adbusters who are a bunch of self-described Communists advocating the violent overthrow of the US. Well, one of the key players in the movement now has the Cleveland Museum of Art sponsoring a showing of a film which shows the disruptive political theater performer in action.
His disruptions, or "shopping interventions" . . . inside and outside of Starbucks coffee shops and Disney stores often end with the Reverend being arrested; he calls it stepping into somebody's imagined box, the police call it illegal trespassing.

Reverend Billy's anti-American film is scheduled to be shown at the Cleveland Museum of Art on August 27th and 29th.

Isn't it comforting to know that the spirit of diversity and tolerance is alive in Cleveland and that taxpayer dollars and private contributions are keeping the Communist movement alive. If we could just have more Reverend Billys, maybe they could take over and the US could prosper in the image of North Korea or Cuba.

Sheesh!
