If you ask me, it's bad enough to cry about a guy that got shot for trying to take an officer's gun.  And even worse to cry about not getting paid for crying about it..

It is of no use. As I have said folks see what they want to see and close their eyes to the things they do not. Even though the very homepage of Millennial Activists United contains a letter that questions the way the funds were distributed to fund the protest:

There will be those that suggest this is not enough evidence to prove that individuals were compensated/ promised compensation to protest. Apparently many just received "grants".
