(81,608 posts)There's a time and a place for disruption and poor sportsmanship. I would not do that. Show respect to those speakers. To Bernie this evening. And to Hillary also, on Thursday. Let's all be adults here.

(21,837 posts)The Hillary supporters, by-and-large, are adults.
They also know how to put aside petty squabbles and play as a team, which is something too many so-called "Bernie-or-Busters" have either overlooked or totally ignored.

(22,165 posts)the booing and heckling of Elijah Cummings as he spoke about civil rights has pushed me over the edge.

I had always hoped that the racism had come from folk pretending to support Sanders... this is beyond the pale

(18,402 posts)My bad: didn't see the OP said Clinton supporters. But there will be booing when Bernie appeals for support for Clinton/Kaine. It won't, quite obviously, be from Clinton supporters, who represent the majority and are completely civil.

(27,863 posts)and the contrast between that and the Bernie supporters who've been booing will be even more marked.
