New Thread for links to visual EVIDENCE of purported "riot" in Nevada. Claimants of riotingpost here

Some people are claiming a chair was lifted by somebody intending to throw it but there is no record whatsoever that I have seen indicating this..

When describing factual events, there is a need for facts- not politics, facts.

Could proponents please post links to actual video or digital photos or film or CCTV footage of said event here.

You don't have to leave your name if you want to be private, use a pseudonym.


Read my sig's links for why I need to see facts.

Thank you.

supposed "success" of this most overt and desperate take-down strategy to derail Bernie Sanders before the California primary are going to wish they hadn't jumped on the bandwagon if Clinton ends up the nominee. I feel quite certain that when (and if) Clinton becomes the nominee, the corporate owned media will suddenly start reporting on all the chicanery employed by her campaign during the primary season - they'll do it after they know Sanders no longer poses a potential threat to the profitable system they help to preside over. It's nothing to them whether Clinton becomes president or not, what matters is that the corporate-state system we all live under remains intact.

She's blowing fake kisses at them as she leaves, and possibly worse at the end.

What a fake, arrogant, disgusting scumbag, she is!

Thanks for the video, very enlightening.

prevailed.

Boxer looks under siege in that video.

Drumpf is profiting from this.

The world is gonna be so different when he takes over.

Women, run and hide NOW.

unfortunately, we're going to lose carve outs for women and minority owned firms and likely other forms of affirmative action under Clinton. because such kinds of "discriminatory" preferences are reserved to least developed countries only under both long existing (WTO) and pending trade agreements.

So instead of having a carve out for a woman or minority owned firm, under the new revised GPA-based bidding and award process, that contract is likely to go to a firm from a less developed country and their - probably more often than not largely male workforce. .

I have been hearing this from expert after expert for several years now so it must be true.

This is one of the reasons why I am against her. I am sure I could find more on this if you want to know more about this process. Its broadly findable by googling "disciplines on domestic regulation". The main web sites of "Global South" organizations have a lot of stuff on the various battles of least and less developed countries to get carve outs from WTO liberalisation dictates.

Also, global organizations like TWN in Malaysia have lots of useful info. TWN.my Sanya Reid Smith of TWN is one of the most articulate spokeswomen for the anti-globalization movement. She has a lot of videos on YouTube explaining FTAs and how their weird logic works..
