In reply to the discussion: Sybrina Fulton is being viciously attacked on her facebook page. [View all]Tom Rinaldo
(22,924 posts)134. Thank you for this OP on behalf of Sybrina Fulton
I just left her this message:
"Although I disagree with your choice of endorsement (I support Sanders) I still mourn the loss of your son and commend you on your courage in your continued battle for racial justice in our nation. I have only respect for your commitment to using the political process to seek lasting healing changes in our nation. And for the record, I will gladly support Hillary Clinton for President if she wins the Democratic nomination. I am sorry that some have spoken ill of you and your choice. They are SO wrong to do so. I suspect some of them are motivated by a desire to sow divisions among us."

Yes, you just want her left alone, by someone who didn't say anything to her.

She didn't "dredge up" Ms. Fulton for an endorsement, she endorsed her on her own.

You're going to need to stop making accusations without some backing. You have less than nothing.

OK, then you can be the dramatic person who makes accusations that aren't true.
