A planned speech in Seattle by presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders celebrating the anniversary of Social Security and Medicare was scuttled Saturday after protesters from a Black Lives Matter chapter took the stage and demanded that the crowd hold Sanders “accountable” for not doing enough, in their view, to address police brutality and other issues on the group’s agenda.

[rktman]

Here, I'll address it for them.

Dear Officers.

Please feel free to use whatever force you deem required to stop any threat to persons or property.

Sincerely rktman

See. I addressed it.

Way to walk bernie but you still ain't gettin' my vote.

If he wants the racist vote he has to appease them.

I how much the Hillary war room paid then to disrupt the event?

[Sarah Barracuda]

Probably 10 bucks an hour, that is the going rate. In 2008 Obama would pay his minions to go on message boards, pretend to be Conservatives, and write vile things about the candidates, this is what the left does

[Jim Noble]

I would vote for Sanders before Bush, Rubio, or any other globalist.

I was thinkin' half a discarded sandwich from mickey d's dumpster and an 8oz cup of Thunderbird.

No.no. “Addressing” something nowadays is code for giving it the full frontal Obama style hope change overhaul.

The only question that needs to be asked at the democrat debates: Do only black lives matter, or do all lives matter?

[terycarl]

the VAST VAST VAST majority of blacks are killed by other blacks....apparently their lives don’t matter.....the VAST VAST majority of abortions kill black babies...that was Sanger’s plan......apparently those don’t matter.....but a white cop shoots a black FELON....black lives matter.

I would vote for Sanders before Bush, Rubio, or any other globalist.

BRILLIANT...why didn't I think of that.....because I have a brain....PATHETIC
