NEWSFLASH III: Update.. it was several drunks in a bar! bluewater Feb 2020 #34

I just don't see campaign workers being disrespectful about opposing candidates a laughing matter. George II Feb 2020 #35

You mean like saying "Bernie needs to be ground to a pulp"? That kind of disrespectful? DanTex Feb 2020 #56

Who said that? So I guess you don't have a problem with an organized chant of "F* Warren". George II Feb 2020 #58

As far as I know, no one said that so it's a moot point. George II Feb 2020 #151

LOL. That's a dodge. Like all the other anti-Bernie stuff, this is all just more faux outrage. DanTex Feb 2020 #153

You're implying something in a hypothetical question but not saying if it really happened. George II Feb 2020 #156
