Sanders: Sandra Bland would be alive 'if she were a white woman'

The Hill ^ | 12-22-2015 | MARK HENSCH

[Citizen Zed]

This land was made for you and me. Unless you are not white. So it must fundamentally change. And not by a white woman.

[Night Hides Not]

What was Larry David’s reaction?

[Dr. Sivana]

It was an evil thought, but what if Hillary Clinton were arrested on a minor infraction and brought to a Texas jail?

[silverleaf]

Or maybe a cop would have tried to kill her dog and shot her instead

[subterfuge]

Sanders is like an old man that angrily sends his soup back to the deli.

[catfish1957]

Too bad Bernie didn’t live in the McCarthy era. Would have love to have seen him being slapped around and led away in chains,

[AppyPappy]

So Bernie is blaming the government for her death.

And he IS the government.

[grania]

It’s possible that there was an over-reaction and then no one recognized how distraught this woman was about being stopped and jailed. Someone else hanging her.....that’s a stretch, the kind of thing that turns people off to what might be a valid issue.

[cowboyway]

Is Burnie implying that white women are too dumb to hang themselves?

[petercooper]

The sea was angry that day, my friends.

[McGruff]

That’s Racist!

[sport]

Sanders is, in my opinion, a thief of the air he breathes and the food he eats. He is just another parasite sucking the life out of his bettors.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Without the race card, the commie libs would have nothing.

[IrishBrigade]

He is just another parasite sucking the life out of his bettors.

He’s a bookie too...?

[Dr. Ursus]

Black/Lives/Don’t/Matter in Vermont!

[chuckee]

If Congress still had a House Unamerican (HUAC) committee, Comrade Bernie would be a permanent witness.

[John O]

If she were white she would not have done whatever she did to get into jail in the first place

[xzins]

I have no problem being honest when any person, any minority especially, has been injured by authorities....police, agency, whatever.

In this case, though, this lady committed suicide days after contact with police officers. The grand jury didn’t indict because there is no crime.

This is not the case to take a stand on.

One of the kindest (white) women I have ever known hung herself in jail after an arrest for DWI. I think the humiliation during a state of impairment overcame her judgement. So very sad.
