... we saw her swagger off and give the crowd the finger. Okay, free country, she freely gave her opinion of the Sanders delegates, kind of the opinion of the Dem Party Leadership.

When the Dems in Congress shouted Shame! over the Repub defeat of the LGBT amendment to a veterans spending bill, that wasn't considered violent behavior. For people who felt cheated because of last minute rule changes by voice vote, after over 12 hours of caucusing, the disrespect spouting from Boxier was awful, so you get what you give...

But the lying on the part of Dems regarding the non-existing violence, continues a nasty smear tactics that started the slanderous accusations of racism and sexism (the whole Karl Rovian "Bernie Bro" campaign, similar to the Clintons' race-baiting "Obama Boys" tactics in 2008), and now falsely accuses Sanders supporters of being violent.

Just dirry, nasty politics, that will come back to haunt HRC if she is the nominee ...
