People are now TURNED OFF their message. TURNED OFF! Notice they NEVER disrupt any of the other candidates? The ONE candidate with a stellar civil rights record and they disrupt his speeches. Why is that? I know goddamned well who is behind this and the 001% thanks them for their fucking servitude.

and why would they want to ruin the one campaign that may give them some economic equality.

Why not ruin Hillary's rally's...................oh right she doesn't have any.

Not only do the people not get a speech, the press don't get any time afterward.

And what really pisses me off is that I know there were people who drove for hours to get to see him speak. I swear to goddess if I lose 3 days worth of work and spend money I don't have to go to do L.A. on Monday to hear him speak and these asshats take over again? I am deaf, dumb and blind to whatever it is that they have to say where I so wasn't before.

I know this has nothing to do with Black Lives Matter because they're not going after Republicans. They're not going after Hillary whose husband signed the Welfare "Reform" Bill which kicked hundreds of thousands of low-income individuals off of aid. Hillary, who ran a racist-ass campaign against Obama in 2008. No, there's only one way this all makes sense and it has nothing to do with Black Lives Matter.

Umm, seems that that is exactly who is responsible


Maybe someone from or who supports BLM should respond here?

they would be targeting the people who write legislation and vote for legislation that hurt people of color. But no, they're going after the most liberal member of the Senate. The man with the longest civil rights activist record in the Senate. Why is that? There's only one answer that makes sense.

Who was involved and what was their message?

I'm not interested in guessing at motives
I want names and facts.

You drive 5-8 hours to see somebody and then they don't get to speak and we'll see how understanding you are. Fuck this shit.

I don't even know what to say anymore.

It's crazy the abhorrent shit money can buy.

It's blatantly obvious how afraid the moneyed class is of Bernie Sanders.

That's what I want to know.

Well, yeah, he's the ONLY one who is currently really out there.

So why don't they talk to him and his campaign people instead of pulling this crap? I can't believe they wouldn't listen, and if they didn't I would like to know about it.

Netroots Nation is over. Talk to Bernie and his people. If they don't listen, let me know.

Edited for typo and to ask if anyone there knew who those people actually were. Yeah, we're all human beings, but I mean what group affiliations, if any. For whom were they speaking? Who planned this? Did they even attempt to contact Bernie's people? Did they want to?

I would really like to know their affiliations, objectives, and thought processes.
