Okay Bro

This Bernie Bro has echoed the sentiment of lots of Bernie Bros after the primary in South Carolina and to some extent before, that ” Black Voters ” owe Bernie their votes, support and gratitude because Sanders marched with Martin Luther King Jr. ( not exactly correct info on behalf of this particular Bro- read HERE )

If we follow The Bernie Bro’s Logic, then somebody better get to work and find out the name of every single white person who marched with MLK so that every single ” Black Voter ” can show their thanks by supporting them – without question and in all of their endeavors- whether they agree with them or not.

Truly Berners, this is not helping anyone, you sound a teensy bit obnoxious and heavy handed so as an fyi you might want to read this:

when it is best

to lock the door, destroy the key

and ignore the pleading and the pounding and the crying

that will come from the other side.

If you can do that

ignoring the smell will be a snap.

How did cemeteries become what they are today?
