Not even a day had passed before extremist, left-wing Internet activists MoveOn.org began to try and raise funds off the tragic crime.
In an early afternoon posting to its SignOn.org website, a site where like-minded activists can join MoveOn’s campaigns and sign Internet petitions, MoveOn urged supporters to “stand with the Aurora, Colorado shooting victims and their families.”
The site features a petition that MoveOn activists can sign. Names and emails are required which in turn go into the MoveOn database so that fundraising emails can then be sent to the mourners of the Colorado victims.
Once again, MoveOn sees a crime as a way to raise money for its activism. Pretty cold blooded, really.
