NEIL CAVUTO (HOST): Charles, what did you make of all of this?
CHARLES PAYNE: I gotta tell you, it's a lost opportunity, misplaced anger being applied by the same power brokers if you will that in my mind have a different agenda. The gentleman was right. Listen, in the black community, we learned that the economics of boycotts can work. Of course, it all goes back to the Montgomery bus boycott, Rosa Parks put a lot of pressure, but it was specific to the Montgomery bus company. I got to tell you something, when Martin Luther King started MIA, which was the Montgomery Improvement Association, he was hoping to have 50 percent of blacks would stay away from the bus company, 99 percent did. It proved to be very effective. This right here is misguided, and I caution people who might otherwise be sympathetic with the cause and it's disingenuous.
CAVUTO: You know, we saw this in Ferguson, we saw this in dust-ups in New York, similar protests over racial issues, that you argued, I think, at the time, particularly in New York, when you spill over into the west side highway or you deny me access to get home, either train stations or other avenues, you have gone overboard. But I was thinking when you were mentioning Martin Luther King, Charles, I'm sure the protests in Montgomery and elsewhere he did stop traffic like that. Where do you draw that line?
