Great news for Clint Tarver

| No Comments
Michigan just enacted a right-to-work law and the union thugs are not happy. Hot dog seller Clint Tarver was paid to cater a pro right-to-work rally and a gang of pro-union asshats tore up his cart and destroyed all of his food and his tent. Mr Tarver is now $33,000 richer. From FOX News:
Michigan's 'hot dog guy' getting new digs after protesters destroyed his supplies
The �hot dog guy� is getting new digs.

Clinton Tarver, the owner of Clint�s Hot Dog Cart and Casual Catering, saw his small business thrust into the national spotlight on Tuesday when his supplies were destroyed at a pro-union protest against right-to-work legislation in Lansing, Mich. �Violent� demonstrators tore down a tent where Tarver was serving his dogs, he said, prompting a staff member for a local lawmaker to create an online fundraiser for the 63-year-old downtown fixture. As of Friday, more than $33,000 had been donated.

�I�m overwhelmed,� Tarver said Friday. �The public has shown such love to me. You never know your true friends until you get down and I�ve had people I thought were pretty close to me and they�ve given me one call. You learn from your endeavors.�
And what is he doing with his money?
�First of all, I�m going to get a brand new cart,� he said. �And I have sick sister, so I�m going to help her out and I�m going to help my church too.�
Sounds like a righteous man.
