Bern the Convention 2016 - reddit


Matching Attire to Display Unity (self.BernTheConvention)

Does anyone think this would be feasible? I ordered a pack of 25 American Flag bandanas (you will want a bandana to filter the tear gas), and plan on wearing all black. Thousands of people dressed as such would help send a powerful graphic image in my opinion. Thoughts?

1. Hope they get enough people to have enough to guard the porta-potties.

2. The Hillary people need to stay far away. Let the Sandroids make headlines as a violent faction,

thus ruining what is left of Sanders legacy. The important Hillary supporters will be inside the convention doing the work that is necessary to finalize the nomination.

3. I hope they recognize the difference between...

peaceful protest and civil disobedience.

Jail is very unromantic.

[liberal N proud]

4. Insanity

Repeating the same thing expecting different results.

The results would be far more disastrous for the nation than that was. And it was pretty damn bad.

1968 Nixon = More War
2016 Trump = New War(s)

5. angry candidates generate angry followers nt

[workinclasszero]

17. And they are cranking up the rage as they realize Sanders ain't goin nowhere

As the Nevada riot shows.

[Fla Dem]

6. Here's the main page. Lots of threads re: convention.

Pretty sure this web site has already been infiltrated by authorities. Posters would like nothing better than a full blown riot.

10. This one is entertaining:

"Looking for ride share from Billings, Montana."

[LuvLoogie]

27. Dude! Go Greyhound!

But I want to take my dog. C'mon man, I'll give you like 35 bucks for gas. Don't be a corporate douche. Greyhounds are like abused.

[workinclasszero]

25. But isn't the internet private?

[George II]

7. This will wind up like that million person rally they were planning in DC (or was is NYC?)....

....last summer. Remember that? A DUer here was even collecting money to fund it. About three days after it was planned they called it off because no one wanted to go.

As we've seen in countless primaries, the attendees at the rallies are huge, but when it comes down to actually going out and voting on Primary day, they stay home.

Tear gas? The Philadelphia police won't need to use it.

[book_worm]

8. These assholes won't be happy until they elect Trump.

They are just like those who voted for Nader--to send a message to the Democrats and we wind up with W for 8 long nightmare years.

[workinclasszero]

18. Yeah

Screw that. This country can't take 8 years of Trump and the mouth breathing tea baggers in control.

[liberal N proud]

9. Is this why BS is thanking Reddit?

23. It was a major factor in his rise

and also a major factor in his fall it would seem.

[procon]

11. Its genius, I says! Pure genius!

Sanders troops are going to dress up in black like the Black Bloc anarchists -- what wonderful role models for the Bernie Bros. -- and plan to infiltrate the peaceful convention delegates to create chaos and incite riots. What culd possibly go wrong?

[workinclasszero]

19. Bingo

You nailed it

[leftofcool]

12. Is this similar to their million millennial march?

That fizzled out right after someone actually scammed them by selling tickets.

[fleabiscuit]

34. Now there's an idea... :-)

[shenmue]

13. Oh shit

[Thinkingabout]

14. I guess my first question is do these people have jobs of is causing a

Commotion without a cause. I would hope it arrestsc are made and it is found anyone arrested who is on any type of disability they should lose their benefitsc and pay back the amount they have received. I feel the same way about the Bundy bunch, if one is able enough to demonstrate and upset the order then they can work to provide for their needs.

15. Morans.

16. It's certain that the Secret Service is way out in front of this.

The would be protesters will have to get comfortable protesting from the fenced in confines of the designated protest zone.

Seriously security will be prepared for remote possibilities including things like ISIS Suicide squads. These Reddit trolls will be out of their league confronting the people their to protect our nations leaders.

[workinclasszero]

21. You got a good point there

"Seriously security will be prepared for remote possibilities including things like ISIS Suicide squads. These Reddit trolls will be out of their league confronting the people their to protect our nations leaders."

[Rose Siding]

28. The Secret Service couldn't keep out delegates

That's who caused the trouble in NV.

Let's just hope they are very ham handed in their planning so they can be identified before hand.

[BlueCaliDem]

20. Those zealots are hurting Sanders' legacy, not Hillary Clinton. Are they too dense to recognize

that fact?

[jmowreader]

22. They're going to dress in all black? Yeah, that's going to send a message.

PHILADELPHIA (Spurious News Network) -- Emergency rooms across the City of Brotherly Love were packed today with Bernie Sanders' most fervent supporters, who are colloquially known as "Bernie Bros" and who dressed from head-to-toe in black to protest their chosen candidate's defeat in the Democratic presidential primaries.

They came ready to be felled by tear gas and police truncheon. A simpler and more insidious foe took them down.

"Don't those idiots know it gets hot in Philadelphia in July?" asked Dr. Sally Smith, chief of emergency medicine at Philadelphia's Hahnemann University Hospital. "We find a homeopathic approach to treating their condition is best - we just throw them, clothes and all, in the hospital's swimming pool until they cool down. Works every time."

[workinclasszero]

24. LOL

[caquillo]

33. I wonder...

Is the "all in black" memo a dog-whistle remark about African-Americans, since they never warmed up to Sanders and in fact provided Clinton with her sweep of the South?

[TwilightZone]

36. haha

Very nice.

[grossproffit]

26. These "supporters" won't stop until someone is killed.

[Koinos]

29. Conspiracy to commit crimes is a felony.

[ROFF]

30. I wonder what percentage

of Bernie's supporters are really NRA members who would like to see both candidates in the GE support the NRA? They would likely no vote for him in the GE.

[otohara]

31. They Will Be Put In a Cage

and it will be called the protest zone

That's what happened in Denver in 08.

[Squinch]

32. Assholes following an asshole.

[TwilightZone]

35. Well, on the bright side, there's a difference between organizing and actually showing up.

They're passable on the former; the latter, not so much.

[mcar]

37. Oh FFS

They're revolutionaries!!11 Where are their tri corn hats?

[FloridaBlues]

38. The minute they think this revolution in the floor happens security will be on them pretty quick

If it's like the past 3 conventions the protestors won't be any where near the area of entrance. They are kept way way apart. With lots of police around.
By then July actions may cool off

[savalez]

39. Don't worry, their parents won't let them go to it.
