Billionaire Bill Ackman is one of more than 8,000 people who have donated to an unverified online fundraiser to support the federal immigration agent who fatally shot 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week.
As of the morning of Jan. 12, a GoFundMe campaign created by Clyde Emmons had raised $374,553 including a $10,000 donation from the hedge fund billionaire. Another $5,000 anonymous donation also topped the list. Created Jan. 9, the fundraiser aims to aid the potential legal defense of Jonathan Ross, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement removal officer based in Minnesota.
Ackman is the 59-year old founder of Pershing Square Capital Management. As of Jan. 12, his net worth was nearly $9.3 billion, according to Forbes.

I'm already not buying things or spending money on corporate sold items outside of some food items. I don't need much so I will simply avoid giving these bastards my money.
Time for a general strike yet?
