Bernie Sanders can’t even get peace in Seattle.
Bernie Sanders Shut Down By Black Lives Matter Protesters In Seattle
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was forced to leave a Seattle, Washington rally without speaking after protesters claiming to represent the Black Lives Matter movement stormed the stage and took the microphone from the Democratic presidential hopeful.
“If you do not listen to us, your event will be shut down,” one activist told the senator.
…..
After the moment of silence, one of the protesters who identified herself as Marissa Johnson, asked the crowd to “join us now in holding Bernie Sanders accountable for his actions.”
“I was going to tell Bernie how racist this city is — with all of its progressives — but you’ve already done that for me. Thank you,” she added.
…..
“You are never going to hear Bernie speak if I don’t hear silence now,” Johnson said when some in the massive the crowd at Westlake Center called out for Sanders to be allowed to speak. “Now that you’ve covered yourself in your white supremacist liberalism, I will formally welcome Bernie Sanders to Seattle.”
I’d like to know how much it cost Hillary to have these folks chase Bernie around.
That’ll teach him to use an outdoor venue…he had fewer problems in Stumptown on the Willamette, because he used the arena.
BTW, one of the two dames encouraged the crowd to display riotous behavior. How come she isn’t in the pokey?
