*UPDATE* 11:40am - I have spoken with Linda Lee, Clint's wife. She says he is absolutely overwhelmed with our support, even more so than by the events of yesterday. I would like to clarify the events, however. Clint hired as a caterer for the AFP tent which was torn down. He was much more concerned about the others, and particularly helped to get the women out of the tent. It was when he returned to gather his equipment that the taunts and racial slurs began. He says the working people did not respect the working man. He was not there to be political; he was just there to serve. This is the Clint we know and love. Please, let's respect him and leave our political opinions out of this. This is about our support for Clint.

*UPDATE* Thank you all for your amazing display of support! Because our goal of $2000 was reached by 10am today, and has now (10:48am) been nearly doubled, I have decided to raise it to $5000. Thank you all again for getting this message out! WE LOVE YOU CLINT!

Early today, Clint Tarver, known as "The Hot Dog Guy" here in Lansing had his business attacked by out of line and out of control protesters near the Capitol.





Everyone who has passed the hot dog cart knows what a kind and caring individual Clint is. He never fails to bestow a smile or friendly greeting. In no way he he provoke this attack, nor any of the behavior displayed toward him.





Regardless of your position on current legislation, rebuilding Clint's Hot Dogs is something we can all support. Please give what you can to get this deserving businessman back out there!
