Anybody got that chair video yet?

[SwampG8r]

I mean it happened in a Las Vegas casino one of the most surveilled spots on Earth seems to me that there should be some video in a room full of people with cameras.
Or is it just another lie being pushed by Hillary and the DNC?

[timmymoff]

1. They couldn't film it, they were taking heavy sniper fire.

[peace13]

2. It's out here.

A guy picked up a chair. A woman calmly tells him to put it down and he does. Crazy lies of violence.

[reformist2]

10. Oh my god! I'm afraid for my life!!! Save me from these violent crazy Bernie supporters!!!!

[GreatGazoo]

20. here

The chair was not injured.

[libodem]

32. OMG

Say it isnt so.

[Human101948]

3. At this point, they will just fade away on this out and out smear...

They have accomplished their mission of disinformation.

[VulgarPoet]

4. Camp Weathervane will "look into it".

[Dem2]

5. I do wish DU had filters like reddit

"Las Vegas" "Nevada" - send to trash bin.

This story is lame and dead.

[winter is coming]

8. We do have filters.

Go to "My Account", then "Trash Can". The feature you want is "auto-trash by keyword".

[Dem2]

9. Sweeet!

I wasn't aware, found the feature after you said it existed.

Thanks!

[frylock]

44. Yes, it appears to have served it's purpose.

[LWolf]

6. Just another lie. nt

[Fawke Em]

7. I have this one!

[FlatBaroque]

11. The Berners were rioting

you think anyone had time to video it? That shit was worse than landing in Bosnia under heavy sniper fire.

[Snarkoleptic]

12. Here's the chair throw video...warning...scary stuff! (SHOCKING VIOLENCE TRIGGER ALERT!!!)

Chair up, chair down, hugs, no throw. Brock memo will read- "Time to move the goalposts again."

[Qutzupalotl]

16. ^^ There it is. ^^

Can we ever recover from manually elevated furniture.

[merrily]

42. I heard the chair sued.

[winter is coming]

17. Anyone know who that guy was? n/t

[myrna minx]

13. It's just more swift boating of Sanders and his supporters.

I'm a middle aged perimenopausal anti-war feminist, but due to all of the lies and Brock smears, as a Sanders supporter, I've been transformed into a Jersey Shore violent frat boy rapist - no better than a Trump supporter. So the DNC thinks its a successful campaign to attack their own voters and smear their integrity?

It's stunning.

[SwampG8r]

14. Given their actions during this primary

Do you really believe that Hillary or the DNC factors Integrity into anything?

[Bettie]

18. Hey, you just described me too!

But, I hear regularly that they can smear us with impunity because they don't need or want our votes.

[hollowdweller]

19. Dean Scream 2016

Just the incident the big guys use to question the guy challenging the status quo.

[merrily]

43. Dean was not the liberal some Democrats hoped he was.

His chief virtue was not having voted for the Iraq War. Then again, he had no vote on it.

[djean111]

15. What they are doing is taking a freeze-frame of the guy holding up the chair,

and making it look like he was caught in the act of throwing it.

Even if Hillary's positions on the issues were not revolting to me, a politician who employs tactics like this cannot get my support or my vote.

[winter is coming]

23. Have you watched the video? (edited)

For somebody who was supposedly angry enough to throw things, he didn't seem to be in any hurry to do so. He didn't just pick the chair up and fling it. He didn't try to rush toward the stage (or anywhere else) with the chair. He didn't struggle with the guys who got him to put the chair down. At all.

I don't think his intent was to throw anything. I think that either he was somebody trying to move a chair and a couple of people said, "Dude, that looks bad. Put the chair down," or the whole point was to hold the chair so someone else could film that "threat".

So... does anybody know this guy, and his story?


ON EDIT: In fairness, let me add a link to a post with a video made by the woman who took the video, better explaining the situation: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=1995680

From their account, it sounds like the guy was a genuinely upset Bernie supporter, although I still think his behavior was atypical.

[KittyWampus]

21. Right, it doesn't happen unless a Sanders supporter says so or there's video.

Oh, I forgot… if Russian Times reports it. Or Reddit. LOLZ

And that sums up how pathetic it's gotten.

I love how you all gloss over the mob behavior, doxxing and death threats.

[SwampG8r]

22. In the one place in America where every inch is videoed

No video of anything you're talking about
amazing maybe you should make a map about it

[merrily]

37. For pity sake, there WAS video proving the chair was not thrown. See Reply 29.

Or run with a lie. Whatever floats your boat.

[frylock]

45. Is there a map of the chair-throwing?

[anotherproletariat]

24. Because if it is not caught on video...it never happened

If I was there and chairs were being thrown, I would have put my phone away and run. Why don't you believe the dozens of eye witness reports?

[SwampG8r]

25. Ok.but it was in a casino.....

Maybe you don't realize this but a casino is one of the most heavily surveilled places on Earth
So did the casino put its cameras away and Run for Cover?

[merrily]

35. Hey! Don't condescend. We saw Oceans 12, ya know!11!!

[lagomorph777]

41. In a room with several hundred Hillary supporters with cellphones,

nobody got the video of any actual chair toss? Yeah, it's pretty obviously bullshit.

[pdsimdars]

31. And that phalanx of policemen just stood there and there were no arrests.

But they did find the video. . . And no one threw any chair. They hugged.

[merrily]

36. Because such video as does exist shows the chair was NOT thrown.

[LadyHawkAZ]

38. If it's not caught on video [in a place with embedded cameras on the ceiling

with constant security coverage and hundreds of people with cellphones capable of recording] it never happened.

Fixed that for you.

[choie]

39. Eyewitness reports?

Meaning who? Clinton supporters?

[frylock]

46. Did the casino put their security cameras away as well?

[arcane1]

26. Didn't you get the memo? Lack of video is PROOF that it happened.

Yes, Brock trolls are actually saying that

[RATM435]

27. I found the chair ..

[merrily]

33. A tall tale about a chair didn't work out too well for either Eastwood or Romney.

[pdsimdars]

28. Rod Serling said he thought he saw it flying through

The Twilight Zone . . . . . . . .

[merrily]

30. Wasn't a young William Shatner in that episode?

[merrily]

29. You saw it. What happened? Did you blink? A man held a chair for under 20 seconds, I think.

He lifted up. He didn't give the slightest resistance as another man took it out of his hands and put it down.

Gave me the vapors for two seconds.

[pdsimdars]

34. But when the MALE Hillary supporter punched that Female Bernie supporter. . .

we've seen the photos.

They are just so DESPERATE to find fault with an honest man so they can try to bring him down to their level and therefore feel good about their candidate.

[Joob]

40. No videos, just lies to campaign against us Bernie supporters
