(99,705 posts)A somewhat prominent actor meets a couple at 3:30 A.M. on a Saturday morning, learns they are Sanders supporters, and beats them up.
Could be true. I suspect there's more to it.

(36,926 posts)Otherwise you wouldn't be trying to hold him responsible for every individual who happens to support him in the first place.

(32,342 posts)Mail-in ballots went out this week. Thanks Berners! Attack our beloved Senator some more.
JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)It was absolutely awful.
I won't vote for her again.
She was one of my favorites, but that speech was not worthy of a senator from any party. She sounded childish, not very intelligent.
Amazingly out of control. I realize that the situation was difficult. But the mark of a professional is grace, poise and self-control. She showed none of the above.
A pitiful speech is a pitiful speech. It will be very difficult for her to recover from that one.

(35,619 posts)..."called a bitch." It doesn't say by whom or how many.
The OP changes that to "Bernie supporters" so we supposedly know the politics of the speaker(s) and that there was more than one.
jillan
(39,451 posts)a "fucking bitch" last nite. Actually he shouted it in her face.
Public officials are used to being called every name in the book, it comes with the territory but a young woman did not deserve that.
So spare me your "holier than thou" attitude.

(69,721 posts)someone calling Nina a 8**ch????
JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)does not shiver at every tiny insult.
This probably does not bother Hillary in the least. She claims to also be a strong woman, doesn't she?
Maru Kitteh
(28,303 posts)Because someone "can take it" and is in public life is justification for being called a bitch. All the strong bitches deserve whatever they get called because they can take it.
Good to know who you are.

Like the HRC fan did? Or did they say that they should all be killed in airstrikes like this HRC fan?
Or say this...
You have issues if you think that a person getting cheated and having the convention corrupted right in front of their eyes by a person linked by marriage to the HRC camp would not understandably say a few negative words...I think I would have rushed the stage...though they had a ton of cops, almost like they expected to break the rules.
