Oh..and the woman working for ACORN in the video killed her husband in the 80's and you can see and hear her brag about shooting him in the head. It was also pre meditated. Crazy! Luckily they have all been fired and the Census dropped ACORN Monday. Our government has also voted to stop giving the organization any more federal funds.
Um...I looked into this, because that struck me as odd, especially without any source to back up your claim. And, lo and behold, it is. The woman lied, her husband is still alive.

She knew they were trying to play them so she played right back.
Also, I was incorrect in my earlier statement. While the organization is non-profit and utilizes volunteers, these people were paid workers. However, it's still not a "government handout".
