These are hecklers. They don't deserve anything but what they got. And President Bill Clinton is just speaking the truth isn't he?

what Bill Clinton had to say. On the other hand, Clinton supporters have not infringed on Sanders right to free speech at his own appearances. Bill Clinton was right about them being toast on Election Day.

I know Sanders supporters are selfish enough to think that they have a right to heckle but the heckled have no right themselves to respond but, in reality, that's not the way the world works. Take off your rose colored glasses already. The hecklers were the aggressors here.

Like to use sweeping generalization a lot? The problem isn't what you know. It's what you know that isn't so.

when Sanders supporters said that about BLM. Fair is fair, if Sanders was wrong, so was Bill Clinton.

There really is one standard for Bernie and another standard for Hillary.

The hostility on the part of the Clintons and the Democratic Party Establishment against Sanders and his supporters has really opened my eyes to who they truly are, Republican Lite. So after 50 years of voting Democratic Party I am changing my registration to Independent.
