ShutDown DC is offering local “service industry workers” $50 for a confirmed sighting and $200 if “they’re still there 30 mins after your message.” A restaurant worker reportedly tipped off ShutDown DC about Kavanaugh’s dinner.
Kavanaugh fled out the back door of Morton’s steakhouse Wednesday after demonstrators gathered in front to protest his vote to jettison a half century of protection for reproductive rights by throwing out Roe v. Wade.
The incident set off a furious storm of controversy over “rights” in America.
Morton’s bashed protesters for interfering in Kavanaugh’s “right to congregate and eat dinner,” calling it selfish and “devoid of decency.” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy also railed about justices’ horrible “lack of privacy.”
Critics slammed back that Kavanaugh has stripped women of their right to privacy and to control their own bodies.
Several pointed out that the right to a quiet dinner is not referred to in the Constitution, which was the same justification justices used to dump Roe V. Wade protections. The First Amendment right to protest, however, is specifically addressed.
The sightings rewards by ShutDown DC are not likely to quell the storm.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Friday attacked the monetary incentives as organized by “antifa.” The Department of Justice has “done nothing,” reported a disgusted Carlson. He urged people to flood the ShutDown site with fake sightings.
“Woah thanks Tucker,” ShutDown snapped back in response. “We have gotten more donations than any single day yet.”
