Jezabel calls up Bernie supporters who threatened Nev. State Chair:

[sufrommich]

The first was a man from Atlanta, who called Lange a “corrupt bitch” and texted her, “Someone will hurt you.”

Atlanta Man declined to give his name when I reached him. He sounded weary and embarrassed. He said he’d been getting phone calls all day.

“Most of them are just hangups,” he said. “I’ve gotten threats on Twitter, too. But I don’t make a big deal out of that stuff. All I can say is that I’ve apologized to her and I’m sorry. I said one thing I guess that somebody took as a threat.”

“What was your actual intention?” I asked.

“I can’t really say for sure if there was an intention on that,” he replied. “I don’t really want to say too much.”

He was “of a younger age,” he explained—older than 18 but younger than 25. “This is our first primary,” he said. “And watching the convention on Saturday, watching the livestream, was very frustrating. I think there were a lot of people who were angry. But I don’t personally have anything against anybody. I never had any intentions of any negative actions or anything like that. I made that very clear. A lot of people are angry.”

I asked if he would’ve done the same thing if he knew people would be able to call him back.

“I wouldn’t have done it had I not been hyped up and angry,” he said. “ But I’m not saying I did anything. I’m not saying I made any threats. I had no intention of threatening anyone.”

1. That little SOB bro should be sitting in a jail cell IMO

He terrorized a woman and her grand kids....filth is the only word that fit a person like that!

[hamsterjill]

15. "Someone will hurt you"

Enough for me.

When his ass was caught and called to the carpet for doing what he did, then he wants to back track what he said? I don't think so. Not good enough.

Absolutely he is filth. Stupid, too, obviously. I hope the fact that he was found and confronted scares the shit outta him so that he never pulls something like this again. But he'll love the notoriety he gets and probably do worse the next time something angers him seeking the regain that notoriety.

2. hyped up. On what I wonder? nt

[sufrommich]

5. On a steady stream of sour grapes being fed to

them by the Sanders campaign.

[WhiteTara]

3. What a bunch of losers.

I hope that they get calls from the FBI or police for their intimidation and threats.

[Her Sister]

4. Interesting!

Sad people actually!

[KittyWampus]

6. But he doesn't deny being a Berniebro.

[savalez]

7. First Presidential election, thinks he knows it all.

Those people have no clue as to how hard we've worked over the years - election after election! Now they come in and think they know better. Dumb asses.

[SharonClark]

12. They think they know it all because Sanders tells them so

[LexVegas]

8. Hyped up on Cheetos and Mountain Dew Code Red. nt

[SharonClark]

13. LOL, true here at work as well and they don't attack anyone

[johnp3907]

17. Code Red is, like, ancient to these people.

Mountain Dew Game Fuel is the thing now.

[BobbyDrake]

18. Sheesh, I'm old enough to remember when there was only 1 Mountain Dew.

[Walk away]

9. I can't wait for Roberta Lange's law suit against Bernie Sanders!!!!!

He will be in court for years and I hope she gets a new day job (after the Bernie Bros destroyed her old one) making lots of money on cable news slamming Bernie's campaign for years to come!

I'll tune in and watch her every time

Plus...this asshole is going to be sued big time! and maybe do a little jail time.

[liberal N proud]

10. “I wouldn’t have done it had I not been hyped up and angry,” he said. “ But I’m not saying I did...

I did but I didn't?

[TwilightZone]

11. Oh, so they weren't Brock plants, after all. How many Bernie supporters will acknowledge that?

Zero.

"He was “of a younger age,” he explained—older than 18 but younger than 25.'

But, Glenn Greenwald said that Bernie Bros don't exist!

"But I’m not saying I did anything. I’m not saying I made any threats. I had no intention of threatening anyone.”

And, I'm still in full-blown denial.

[LuvLoogie]

14. Just like Sanders

Admit no mistakes. Take no responsibility.

[ismnotwasm]

16. Good

Nobody in their right mind condones this crap.

[Tarheel_Dem]

19. That's the problem with "mobs". They egg each other on, but when you catch 'em alone, they.....

whimper like the little weasels they truly are. And for those threatening disruption in Philly, I hope they realize that I've got a lot of family in Philly, and they don't play that shit. They might get a whole lot more than were hoping for.
