So far. So good.
I spend most of my free time hanging with my white trash berniebot bros in the trailer drinking lattes. We have a hard time making it outside though to hug trees because we are dumb as a brick and twice as thick and can't figure out how to function in the real world so we just sit around insulting women...or at least that is what we are told we do as Bernie supporters...over and over and over and over again.
Even though these insults are never at me directly, these things have been said about Bernie supporters as a generalization and about Bernie, by another candidate's supporters, both here and on their private site, as a general broad brush.
I have spent my whole life, in my own ways, advocating for women's rights and the rights of people of color, to be told here, indirectly, by just being a Bernie supporter, that I am at worst a misogynist or at best a tone death jerk that doesn't understand the issues that women face is insulting. You don't know anything about me and I am not willing to expose that much about my real life. Even if it is not directed at me, it is directed at the candidate I support. A man, that while he has been imperfect, has worked very hard for the rights of women.
That I don't get why people of color are angry and sick and tired of the same bullshit platitudes and no action from old white politicians. Even if it is not directed at me, it is directed at the candidate I support. A man, that while he has been imperfect, has worked very hard for the rights of people of color.
While I don't doubt there has been some people who claim to support Bernie that have said things they should not. I, personally, have seen very little. Maybe I live in a sheltered life. Maybe I don't.
I have seen a great deal of complaining and broadside attacks with vile accusations from another candidate's supporters though. Over and over again.
I have been on DU for 9 years and never had a hide and I don't plan to start. I'll stew on it a little more but I am inclined to take a break and decide if it is worth coming back our not.

The Crime Bill distortion has already been debunked. It was an omnibus bill and while aspect sucked others such as the Violence Against Women Act needed to pass. You would be screaming your head off if he voted against that.
He has consistently voted for gun control measures that are moderate.
Most gun deaths are suicides. Pretending that it is a 'gang' thing is bordering awfully close to racism there JaneyVee. Watch yourself please. 
The sound of you missing the point completely!
It's all they have.
