I disagree with those standing in the church with their backs turned on Bloomberg.

If he is not their choice, that is fine, but I wonder if they were plants for the rethugs or another campaign. Most would disagree, but that is how I feel.

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Disagree.

That is like saying that black athletes should not kneel during the anthem.

Pretty sure they were protesting stop and frisk.

They have a right to protest and I doubt it was a set up. This is Selma after all.

a right to protest peacefully... just as we have a right to take a knee during the national anthem. If they were rethugs, I find it hard to believe that they would likely openly protest injustice against black people - they have similar ideologies to Trump, after all.
