I understand you want to support BLM. I understand that you want to support Sanders. What these two outliers did has harmed both BLM and Sanders. Please stop trying to rationalize their bad behavior by seeking reasons for it.

Rage and bigotry do not need reasons - only wood to burn. Those two obviously have that in abundance. Thankfully they are young. Maybe they will grow up.
