With Democrats in crosshairs? Now we have Sanders supporters making death threats. Sanders is personally fomenting hate within the more unhinged elements. I pray for the safety of Democrats Sanders is putting in the crosshairs. This use to be a republican tactic. The end results of such abhorrent behavior is well known.

have now been and are being used by Hillary's Democratic opponent and his fans. I too pray that no one gets hurt--or worse. Lots of crazies out there.

They say they are Sanders supporters but are really working for someone else?

I said two weeks ago that some of the solid Sanders supporters would become so disgusted with the company they are keeping that they would start calling it a false flag operation.

And, only one candidate's Super PAC has spent a million bucks to 'correct' people online. It's possible they are behind it.

And, I love all other Bernie supporters. They are on the right side of history. It's the tactics by the Democratic party in Nevada that disgust me.

They call themselves Sanders supporters. You are questioning if they really are. I would be doing the same and wouldn't want to be associated with them either.

While I have seen no proof I understand why you want to paint them as a false flag operation. We now know that many of the most egregious offenders have been promoting Sanders on social media from the beginning. They aren't giving the appearance of being a part of a false flag operation. Again, I get what it is a conspiracy some would want to be pushed. To find a point of agreement, neither one of us wants to be associated with them.
