Claiming Non-Violent People Committed Violence Will Really Get Them To Support HRC This Fall Right? [View all]

I think this tactic the HRC Campaign and the MSM cooked up to claim people (other than the Hillary Supporter who WAS arrested for assault) are committing acts of violence is backfiring now, and will backfire all the way to Trump's eventual win.

Half the Democratic Party, and more than half of Independents support Sanders. Calling us "violent" when none of us have even been arrested committing acts of violence is beyond stupid. Belittling us because we want REAL change faster than slow motion is really gonna help too.

Might as well just give the White House to the Birther Trump with this fake false flag story.

People were pissed. The media never seemed to mention why. People were loud, but no one got hurt. Period.
