I'm posting this to show a different perspective of what happened in Nevada. It's a fairly long piece but it's a good read.
We believe, unfortunately, that the tactics and behavior on display here in Nevada are harbingers of things to come as Democrats gather in Philadelphia in July for our National Convention, declared Bradley S. Schrager, the state partys general counsel. We write to alert you to what we perceive as the Sanders campaigns penchant for extra-parliamentary behavior indeed, actual violence in place of democratic conduct in a convention setting, and furthermore what we can only describe as their encouragement of, and complicity in, a very dangerous atmosphere that ended in chaos and physical threats to fellow Democrats.
The letter written by leadership of the Nevada State Democratic Party appears to be an attempt to control the narrative, so that citizens throughout the United States view what happened at the convention as the result of violent Sanders delegates, who had no respect for the rules, and not as the result of anti-democratic conduct by the state party.
Nevada State Democratic Party leaders claim that the Sanders campaign has a penchant for violence,' Sanders said in a statement. That is nonsense. Our campaign has held giant rallies all across this country, including in high-crime areas, and there have been zero reports of violence.

Why should they be allowed to steal away--using Bolshevik tactics-- Democratic Party delegates chosen by voters?
