So is BLM officially a good organization again or do the following OPs by Sanders supporters here still apply?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251504529 - "
Is the Hillary campaign using BLM to take down Bernie?"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027060303 - "
"I had a Sarah Palin button on backpack" Who is BLMS's Marissa "Johnson" Jenae?"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251502198 - "BlackLivesMatter was given million$ by Soros after Ferguson. soros=Hillary Benefactor.

Begs the question: are BLM only targetting Bernie to swiftboat him for hillary?"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251505858 - "
Holy, are there people here seriously defending BLM Seattle's actions!?? What's wrong with you?"

and note many very virulently anti-BLM comments by Sanders supporters under those OPs.

I don't presume to speak for others. And you didn't change your mind. You changed your affiliation. Luminous Animal Jan 2016 #79

LOL, you dont presume to speak for others and then just presumed to speak for me. stevenleser Jan 2016 #80

Question them yourself, journalist Leser. And I didn't speak for you. You spoke for yourself. Luminous Animal Jan 2016 #81

Yes you did. And it is completely different from what I said about my opinion stevenleser Jan 2016 #82

Bastion? Let's take a look at that word randys1 Jan 2016 #130

I used bastion because you were complaining about hides resulting from you speaking up about racism. Kentonio Jan 2016 #131

If I told you that because you are white you have white privilege, and every area of your life, randys1 Jan 2016 #132

I already do accept that, it should be apparent to anyone who takes the time to look at the world. Kentonio Jan 2016 #134
