Hillary should condemn the physical attack on Bernie supporter by one of her big fans. But won't!

Wendell Pierce pushed her boyfriend and then went after his girlfriend . . . grabbing her hair and smacking her in the head after she indicated she supported Bernie Sanders.

Hillary and her campaign committee and Super-Pac's remain dead silent on this matter.

Where's the outrage?

Hillary's silence can only encourage further acts of violence by her fans against Bernie campaign workers and supporters.

Should we dig up all Bernie fans arrest records and demand Bernie apologize?

Insane.

Of course, picking up a chair is far more threatening than laying hands on a person...right? All you twitter people out there . . . why aren't you sticking this to DWS and Clinton and Brock and Axelrod - Esp. Axelrod, Nia-Malika Henderson, Gloria ???, and RACHEL MADDOW, HAYES AND MATTHEWS? Really.

I want to scream at my TV because panel keeps bringing up Bernie and the NV incident. Press is trying to make the discussion real. He's being lectured by Bakari Sellars some state house rep who can't let go of his demands that Bernie quit. A lot of fear in the Democratic Party.

This is how they operate. I bet a real eye opener for many registered Democrats and Independents.
