What We Saw At The “Fight For $15,” Vol. 4: Disruptions, Arrests, Out of Control

In our latest roundup of tracking video pulling the mask off of what really happened at the “Fight for 15” national “day of action,” we’re highlighting the utter chaos that took place at many of these protests across the country. The fact that some these demonstrators had to be arrested or managed by police shows that this is fringe movement that the unions are orchestrating.

In Missouri, the leader of a protest at McDonalds was out of control and was not listening to law enforcement, so he was taken into custody:

Then in Memphis, police had to be called to a local McDonald’s after protesters went inside and caused a disturbance. These same protesters also made their way into the middle of the street to slow down traffic and cause trouble:

Across Chicago, a city with a notorious crime problem, police were distracted from arresting real criminals because of the political theater coming from the “Fight for $15” protests. Demonstrators across the city were taken into custody after these protests:

These videos just add to the evidence that these protests about the true nature of the “Fight for $15” campaign – union thuggery thinly disguised as a political “movement.” While unions want a $15 minimum wage so they can bolster their membership, the facts are that will crush our economy and hit low-income workers the hardest. Combine that with the fact that these protests are now a disturbance for law enforcement across the country, and that helps tell the real story about the “Fight for $15.”
