Geee Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Daily Caller: More Americans are noticing the emerging double standards for political activism, setting off alarm bells across the nation. Swarming bias on social media looks mild compared to increasingly aggressive, disruptive acts against conservatives, police, donors and corporations who dare to dissent from liberal orthodoxy. A coalition of radical agitators, using loaded language, manipulated facts and pressure tactics to scare off dues-paying members, are trying to drain and destroy the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) — a policy-driven think tank for conservative state legislators. At a recent ALEC board dinner in Pittsburgh, 60 leaders were disturbed when thirty angry, intimidating agitators suddenly entered the quiet hotel room with umbrellas, megaphones. They aggressively chanted and even threw glitter into the board’s food and drinks. ALEC is targeted because 69 of 99 state legislatures are now controlled by conservatives, according to its CEO Lisa Nelson. ALEC is effective in providing model legislation to help states pursue limited government and free markets – an anathema to the American left.
