Union Thugs Shouted Racial Slurs At Hot Dog Vendor While Trashing His Business

◼ Yesterday a hot dog vendor named Clint Tarver was serving hot dogs at the AFP tent that was torn down by an angry mob of union members. He wasn’t there to be political, he was there to do his job and make a living. The union goons didn’t care, they destroyed his hot dog cart while shouting racial slurs at him as he tried to gather his belongings. - The Lonely Conservative

Early today[December 11, 2012], Clint Tarver, known as “The Hot Dog Guy” here in Lansing had his business attacked and destroyed by out of line and out of control protesters near the Capitol.

Everyone who has passed the hot dog cart knows what a kind and caring individual Clint is. He never fails to bestow a smile or friendly greeting. In no way [did] he provoke this attack, nor any of the behavior displayed toward him.

Clint is a beloved local figure, his hot dog stand across from the Michigan state capitol being a sort of institution, a landmark. “This is not a guy who’s about politics,” Lee explained. “He’s about hot dogs.”

Americans for Prosperity hired Clint to serve hot dogs at their tent on the capitol grounds, where AFP officials were presenting the pro-freedom side of the right-to-work argument. And when the union goons decided to assault the AFP tent, Clint became a target.

UPDATE: ◼ Those racist right-wing teabaggers have already raised more than $17,000 to help Clint Tarver.
