I think many participants were sincere, but had they been manipulated by others with a hidden agenda? Or is it just easier to protest the Democratic representatives in the Bay Area instead of traveling to the districts where their real enemies reside?

My daughter was at that press conference---which was in support of DACA and the Dreamers, for god's sake--- and she was texting me in frustration the whole time. The protestors made it impossible even for Dreamers to speak.

I just watched it on TV. Besides, I think the alt-right owns the 'false flag' brand.

Black bloc etc. have made a fucking indistry of fucking up real protests.

at his rallies

Everything that makes us look bad is obviously a false flag operation. Always.

Sounds like a winning plan. Why not protest Trump instead?

Don't they understand Nancy and Chuck are on there side..

He's probably too old to get it up, but there might be one or two more tricks left in that old colostomy bag he calls a brain.

This is exactly the sort of thing they are known for.

...guess they just wanted the attention and she was convenient. I wish they could find someone more worthy to interrupt, though...

A disorderly conduct arrest would block them from being in DACA now, and they could end up deported in a hurry under Trump and the Evil Elf.

Wouldn't come close to a shout-down. Deportation is truly terrifying for them. Common sense tells me that they were paid to disrupt, and that they aren't Dreamers.

Unless it isn't. Unless they were agent provocateurs. Looks like a Roger Stone Production.

Something different than pelosi and other democrats on this ? did he put out a clean bill ?

Is not a Democrat or a progressive. If this was the work of "Our Revolution," they need to take a good, long look at themselves.

Counterproductive which makes me think this was the result of manipulation. I can understand their complaint of not wanting to be used as pawns by Trump or wanting to have a comprehensive immigration plan but right now we're talking prevention of deportation. Nancy Pelosi and the Dems are their defender at this point. There will be no citizenship opportunities if and when they're dumped out of the country. something that Trump supporters truly desire.

An example of cutting off your nose to spite your face. Ugh!

IF those protesters weren't paid and REALLY feel this way "All of us or none of us," and were shouting this at Pelosi, then that REALLY isn't going to help their cause. I have several Hispanic friends--Who have family members who worked hard and sacrificed over a period of YEARS to become citizens of this country--and those folks were never as patient with the Dreamers as I've been, and my patience is going to be GONE if these types of counterproductive protests against their allies continue.

In a perfect world, I'd agree with these young peoples' sentiments. But we don't live in that world.

The fear of deportation back to a country you have no memory of or attachment to must be awful. Which is why blocking the deportation of 800,000 is so important. But I agree with you--this opposition and interruption of Pelosi's press conference is really an example of stepping on your own message and/or desire to stay in country. It's only by being in-counry that the demands they were shouting can be addressed and worked on. They stand little chance of that once deported.

I don't get it. The priorities have been skewed either by manipulation or bad decision-making or something. Whoever decided this was a good idea was really, really wrong.

and I'm sure I'm not alone. I hope someone can prove that it was a false-flag operation.

Smells like false flag to me.

Either that or they are nuts.

MSNBC was showing the protest and they also had a spokesman or someone affiliated with the protestors on in an insert. He was pretty aggressive in answering questions from Casie Hunt (?). I thought, why are you protesting people who are trying to help you?

such event could turn away many.

that the protestors were trying to draw attention to immingrants not covered by DACA. But, we have to start somewhere and the DREAMERs are a good place to do that. Then, hopefully, move on comprehensive reform.

"our revolution" is actually turning off most dreamers with this. say the group is a fraud with people fame seeking types. they are also posting the sanders lou dobbs video .

these people should disassociate themselves from sanders.
