So have they been contacted by authorities? ibegurpard May 2016 #1

That is the question no one seems to want to touch. cherokeeprogressive May 2016 #16

No, we are gonna hear day in and out about this outrage- which is also a crime Warren DeMontague May 2016 #63

So simple a question results in crickets bvf May 2016 #72

If in fact people made threats they should be prosecuted if its appropriate. Baobab May 2016 #110

Agreed. bvf May 2016 #120

Good questions. The type of harassment she is describing is AGAINST THE LAW. mhatrw May 2016 #101

Bernie needs to drop out. trueblue2007 May 2016 #2

Or at least start trying to control his people... scscholar May 2016 #95

Why? Because a Clinton surrogate claims she is receiving death threats, but will not call the police mhatrw May 2016 #102

What if there was a lot of fraud - for HRC? Baobab May 2016 #124

Republican Black Ops Scientific May 2016 #3

I wish that was true. DemocratSinceBirth May 2016 #6

Quite likely. Or it was DWS calling her. Just for the same reason, and to cause Bernie trouble. nt silvershadow May 2016 #26

There's always a conspiracy. Metric System May 2016 #39

Or satire, to illustrate how we honestly have no way to pin this on Bernie's folks. But I see silvershadow May 2016 #43

So Ms. lange should file charges. Warren DeMontague May 2016 #46

There should be charges filed against Lange. (eom) liberalnarb May 2016 #48

There is proof all over the place that it was Bernie supporters. barrow-wight May 2016 #58

What proof? choie May 2016 #61

Many gleefully admitted to doing it. Renew Deal May 2016 #71

More complete bullshit. They interviewed THREE Sanders supporters. mhatrw May 2016 #108

Bullshit. Only smears no proof Berners were responsible. snagglepuss May 2016 #30

You have the right to your own opinion Nonhlanhla May 2016 #55

You guys are ones concocting bullshit stories. snagglepuss May 2016 #60

It has been proven Nonhlanhla May 2016 #66

Did RS print names? Since RS had no problem finding these people, the police should have found them snagglepuss May 2016 #69

Here is a link Nonhlanhla May 2016 #77

The numbers were released apparently. moriah May 2016 #78

The ones the media contacted admitted to being Sanders supporters. TwilightZone May 2016 #32

What about the ones that law enforcement have contacted? frylock May 2016 #37

I don't know. What has the Secret Service and the FBI told you? TwilightZone May 2016 #42

Terroristic threatening has been the name for death threats in law for ages. moriah May 2016 #74

Doesn't matter; Sanders doesn't need proof to issue a clear condemnation anigbrowl May 2016 #125

I heard on the late news last night that the FBI was looking into the threatening phone calls. anotherproletariat May 2016 #9

She's right that the people who made those calls kiva May 2016 #10

If it really happened they belong in jail, or at least ThePhilosopher04 May 2016 #12

What I don't believe is her unmitagated gall in thinking kiva May 2016 #13

Right? They are conflating everything about what happened about the dissent and silvershadow May 2016 #28

Of course he should have apologised, just like any other leader would have. procon May 2016 #44

So did I miss Clinton's apology kiva May 2016 #65

Well, of course, that naturally cancels out Sanders behaving like a low class jerk. procon May 2016 #67

Just like when Obama was supposed to apologize because a preacher said something people didn't like elehhhhna May 2016 #89

That's genius. procon May 2016 #130

She should turn off her text messaging and only accept voice votes. mhatrw May 2016 #115
