'We just saw what was happening and jumped in': Omaha's Symone Sanders on that protester takedown



By Joseph Morton

WASHINGTON — Somebody get Symone Sanders a Blackshirt. (University of Nebraska defensive players are called Blackshirts)

The Omaha native demonstrated impressive tackling skills Tuesday night when anti-dairy protesters rushed the stage during former Vice President Joe Biden’s address to supporters in Los Angeles.

Sanders is a senior adviser to Biden, who was basking in his big Super Tuesday comeback alongside wife Jill Biden and sister Valerie Biden Owens when the protesters approached shouting slogans and waving “Let Dairy Die” signs.

Jill Biden initially blocked the protesters, one of whom then received an old-fashioned Nebraska takedown.

Perfect together. The two women were protecting their guy. Though initially startling, the takedown was a thing of wonder.
