Bernie Sanders Supporters in Philadelphia Chant: ‘Lock Her Up!’
Breitbart ^ | July 25, 2016 | by JOEL B. POLLAK

PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania — Supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) adopted a slogan from the Republican National Convention in their protests against presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Sunday: “Lock her up!” The Wall Street Journal reports:

At a lively Sunday march in support of former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, chants of “lock her up,” “Hillary for Prison” signs and t-shirts and calls for indictment were common among the most ardent supporters of Mr. Sanders, who arrived in Philadelphia to make their voices heard to the delegates attending the Democratic National Convention.

“Hillary for Prison” shirts and bumper stickers have proliferated across the country.

The Journal further notes that “attendees were more than eager to list the reasons that Mrs. Clinton deserved to be incarcerated,” and were quite capable of doing so.

The chant, which originated on the floor of the Republican gathering in Cleveland, refers to Clinton’s non-indictment for mis-handling classified information. FBI director James Comey said earlier this month that while Clinton had been “extremely reckless” with national security secrets on her private and unauthorized email server, and that they had likely broken the law, they did not have the requisite criminal intent to sustain prosecution.

Critics noted that the relevant statute has no “intent” requirement.

The chant has been adopted by the remaining holdouts for Sanders, even though the Vermont senator ended his campaign and endorsed Hillary Clinton several weeks ago.

The rat convention hasn’t even been called to order and it’s very obvious to every media outlet in America that it’s very dark.

but....but..... we were told that the GOP convention was very dark and depressing.

And Hillary told us how sad it was to her, that the Republicans chanted “lock her up”. The GOP had no positive message according to her. The only unifying message was dislike of her, was her takeaway from the GOP convention.

How will the liberals who run the media spin all this??? Stay tuned.

GO Bernie Supporters!!! You have been used, lied to, stabbed in the back, and told you are not any good...

“Lock Her Up” “Hillary For Prison” “NO To Hillary”....and when you get finished burning down Philly, and dragging the ‘queen’ through the streets like they did to Chris Stevens, come join the Trump Supporters and lets all Make America Great Again!!!

Even if I disagree with them on many issues, some of the Sandersbots seem like good people.

Not that I would trust them with any political power...

They might. Won't they have to practice professional standards to avoid being accused of being part of the DNCs scheme to choose the nominee?

Watching the press this did not happen. The press is not showing nor talking about any protests. Its like they aren’t happening. Booing DWS was on the news. So, I think the press is trying hard to put lipstick on this pig. But sometimes there just isn’t enough lipstick.
