US Senator Sinema Blasted At Bisbee Arizona “Private Event” For Corporate Shilling
“Corporate Shill” – “Corporate Greed” – Was The Chant Of Protesters
Shill – an accomplice of a hawker, gambler, or swindler who acts as an enthusiastic customer to entice or encourage others.
Sometimes it’s hard to run away from reality and the world is just dumped into your lap.
As I sat drinking beers at the *Old Bisbee Brewing Co.’s lovely outdoor lounge today, a protest emerged right across the street! I could hear their muffled chants, but could not read their signs.
After I confirmed that the protest was against Arizona US Senator Sinema, of course I sprang into action!
I immediately and unsuccessfully encouraged the twenty something folks drinking beers to do like Thoreau did when he famously replied to his friend Emerson from jail for his “crime” of tax evasion for protesting the Mexican War: “what are you doing out there, and not in here” (e.g. why were these folks not with the protesters). (In reply, most said they were tourists and Air B&B travelers consumed by their cell phones.)
I then literally ran and got my camera.
When I returned to the protest, I learned that Sinema was actually there. It was a “private” wedding of a family of her elite supporters.
Shortly after I got there, the mom of one either the bride/or the groom came outside to confront the protesters, crying, and begged for the protesters to relent. “It’s their wedding” she cried.
Heres’ what I saw: more photos coming after I can establish a faster connection and upload them:
