    Bernie has the momentum and rightly so. There is no one on any side of the aisle who is working like hell to give the power back to the people. Bernie is the last chance to save our Democracy.

    Looks very communist and highly scripted.

    Trump welcomes moderates turned off by marxism...

    100% downright scary how anyone can think this is a good idea!!

    Hugo Chavez famously said, “The only way to save the world is through socialism, but a socialism that exists within a democracy; there’s no dictatorship here.” Now...look at Venezuela...

    The only real difference between "democratic socialism" and regular old socialism is a phenomenal rebranding effort. If left unchecked, American socialism would produce the same outcomes that ravaged Venezuela. Very dangerous thing...

    That's a freaking huge crowd. Good for Bernie. He is finally making enough of a stink that he will look justified if he gets screwed and gets pissed about it. Last time they screwed him most of the Democrats that backed Clinton said that he wasn't going to win anyway and used that as an excuse to rig the primaries. If they do it this time they will have a real problem on their hands. Now they are stuck with him, for better or worse.

    Okay Mrs Seal. That means you can define both. Go right ahead.

    Democratic Socialism =Bullsh*t those two words go together like Voluntary Slavery.

    Socialism =advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. No privately owned property, typically the transition between Communism and Capitalism.

    Anything else I can define for you, Bush Lawyer?

    Mrs Seal,
    Sure. Have another go and this time, leave the stereotypes out. Your definition of democratic socialism is especially dismissive.

    Owen Shoyer is a complete moron.

    He always shows up where he is not wanted and then he deliberately tries to provoke a confrontation.

    Then, he gets a video of it, and spreads it thin. (To satiate the need for Mock Outrage).

    It looks to me like the guy clumsily hit himself (with with the megaphone).

    Now this "injured" security person is trying to use his clumsiness to elicit sympathy.:bored:

    Most likely the perps will be facing Attempted Murder Charges.

    Godspeed.:flagus:

    I dismiss it because it's bullsh*t, I typically am dismissive of bullsh*t....

    Thanks for your input as always Bush Lawyer..

    Okay, you may keep your horse, even your pistols as they only fire blanks.

    More likely the Bernie Bros are easily prone to violence. Heck, a campaign organizer even said Milwaukee will burn if Sanders loses.

    If Bernie gets shafted again I imagine we will be seeing quite a bit of violent frustration amongst his supporters. Will it be brushed over and/or excused?

    I would say most probably. Anger and violence are synonymous and some people are essentially addicted to inflamed levels of emotion.
