John Hames shared with you:   Send In The Clowns: 84% of McDonald's Protesters Were Not McDonald's Employees RedState - On Wednesday, the Service Employees International Union, as part of its four-year old plan to unionize the nation's fast-food workers, launched a frontal assault on McDonald's corporate headquarters in Oakbrook, Illinois. During the event, over 100 protesters, as well SEIU boss and fast-food unionization architect Mary Kay Henry, were arrested. The union's event planners had rented 32 buses, ensured they had prominent civil rights leaders in tow for photo-ops as they stormed the company's entrance and, while they had some of McDonald's 440,000 U.S. employees, the vast majority of protesters (about 16%, according to Bloomberg'snumbers) appear to be nothing more than a rent-a-mob (or astroturf, as the case may be): Available on the App Store.
