No Bernie, This Is Not "Absolutely Appropriate"
Bernie Sanders speaking with Rachel Maddow today:
MADDOW: Let me just be clear though. In terms of people turning up and protesting outside and not disrupting?
SANDERS: Absolutely. If they want to do that, that is absolutely appropriate. Why not? That is what freedom of speech is about, what freedom of dissent is about. People standing outside by the hundreds, by the thousands, saying "look, we disagree". I think thats exactly appropriate.
Maddow then further described to Sanders the extremely negative tone of recent protests, at which point he...started talking about Donald Trump.
Watch the exchange here:

Also, this:
Senator Sanders, this is not okay. And it's certainly not "absolutely appropriate". In fact, in my entire life I've never seen anything like it in a Democratic primary...............

Shameful is the perfect word. These people have become the Tea Party. They are awful.

Yeah, they're not "pointess" because it means we don't have to put up with BS fans.
