I hope they all get caught, arrested, and fined for their idiocy and illegal behavior.

So tactics like a youth soccer team letting the air out of the tires of the opposing teams vehicles so they are late to the game and have to forfeit the game is great fun. Some adults have done those kind of things. Think of letting some of the air out of a football. There are people who cheat on their taxes. They have never grown up to respect rules and believe that rules do not apply to them because they did not when they were kids.

Our problem is all these soccer moms & dads are all in control of elections these days and the only thing that matters to them is winning. To paraphrase an old great movie. "Rules, We don't need no stinking rules"

and all the while were expressing 'concern' over his policies and writing OPs admonishing Bernie supporters for being mean. Anyone who does that is an asstroll.

it ain't no Bernie supporter. There may be a few still doing it, but it gets easier to see through.

I'm also a little surprised to see a few once-staunch "Bernie supporters" acting as if it were all over and talking about his campaign in the past tense. That is not helpful.

It's the kind of thing that would play well on local news (if local news isn't in the bag for Hill) and then spread further.

Every little bit of truth about Hill and her campaign needs to be publicized on social media and the MSM.

they support Hillary will tell you she has experience and it's time for a woman President. But when you ask follow up questions, are unable to answer with anything concrete.

I couldn't see the posts from Jeffrey or Kyleen. Maybe I'm better off.

Found this on Twitter from a friend. The Hilbots in CA are organizing to rip down Bernie signs, pamphlets, etc pretending to be Bernie supporters.

It's a fucking shame that we are forced to be so wary about who we trust, and then they call us "paranoid". Peeps in Cali, please unite against this!

**UPDATE** Courtesy of a well-informed Berner, it is ILLEGAL to destroy political signs. Knowledge is power!
