111. This makes me sad

Wed Sep 9, 2015, 09:25 PM

Sep 2015

As a Latina, I am a supporter of Bernie but I don't like some of the supporters who are clearly only agreeing on financial issues. However, most I know are very progressive socially and financially. I got two emails from a H supporter last night...and I have tried never to engage or answer that individual because they are known to target and follow.

There are a lot of good people on this site who will vote differently from each other in the primaries and we need to be vigilant of all the stalkers across the boards.

Though, I am deeply creeped out for Bravenak because this is scary shit.
