Thousands Hit Philadelphia's Steamy Streets to Protest DNC

Thousands of Bernie Sanders supporters are marching down a main thoroughfare in Philadelphia to show their support of him and disdain of Hillary Clinton ahead of the Democratic National Convention.
Chanting "Hell No, DNC, we won't vote for Hillary" and "This is what democracy looks like," the marchers headed from City Hall down Broad Street. Broad is the main north-south artery that leads from downtown to the convention site at the Wells Fargo Center about 4 miles away.
Many carried Sanders signs, and a huge Bernie Sanders puppet was also a part of the march. Sweltering heat hasn't kept protesters away from the streets Sunday. The city is under an excessive heat warning and temperatures were in the high 90s. The four-day convention for Democrats to nominate Clinton for president begins Monday.

Dont forget, they have to start eating a lot of beans for their fart-in.I was thinking they'd infiltrate the band and play the brown note.

Their parents are celebrating. They get the house to themselves for at least the next four days.

...a huge Bernie Sanders puppet was also a part of the march. That certainly seems appropriate.

I think it was the “open carry” & the “bikers for Trump” that prevented any meaningful demonstrations in Cleveland.

If the Republican Convention had blown up with e-mails, resignation of boss and the beat down of a big player. (Bernie), media would go wild

Gosh. I hope tens of thousands of Bikers For Hillary show up to provide security like the Bikers For Trump did at the RNC Convention.
More likely tens of thousands of Dykes on Bikes will make an appearance.

I wonder what those parents think about the independence and maturity of the Trump children in contrast to their own brats?

"May the spirit of Frank Rizzo watch over the Philly PD during the course of the convention."
Do you remember the time when Rizzo left some kind of dinner he was attending, and showed up at the scene of a "racial disturbance" with his nightstick tucked in his tuxedo, during those difficult times of racial riots and so forth in Philly in the 60's?
