What’s more ironic than having #BlackLivesMatter protesters shut down a Bernie Sanders campaign event? These chicks are about as crazy as they come. They were yelling that he was a ‘white supremacist liberal’.
Some in the mostly white audience booed and hissed as they urged protesters to let the senator talk. A few yelled for police to make arrests. One activist on stage replied the Seattle crowd was proving they were “white supremacist liberals.”
After denouncing the crowd, the activists demanded 4 ½ minutes of silence in memory of Michael Brown, the black man shot to death by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri a year ago. While rally organizers stood and raised their hands in support, some in the crowd yelled profanities.
