Political protests have taken on hundreds of forms over the years, but this might be the first planned “fart-in.”

Cheri Honkala, the leader of the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign, told Truthdig that her group plans to host the “world’s largest fart-in” on July 28 at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

Honkala said she will host a “massive bean supper,” deemed “Beans for Hillary,” for Bernie Sanders delegates before Hillary Clinton’s speech to accept the presidential nomination.

“The Sanders delegates, their bellies full of beans, will be able to return to the Wells Fargo Center and greet the rhetorical flatulence of Hillary Clinton with the real thing,” Honkala said.

Honkala said she plans to invite Sen. Sanders himself to the bean supper, and she asks people send donations of beans to 1301-W Porter Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148. The remaining cans of beans will be donated to the homeless.

1. More childishness from the fringe.

But hey, "Honkala" got her name in the paper. Oh, won't her descendants be proud!

[Arkansas Granny]

2. Has Bernie addressed these "supporters" and asked them to refrain from such foolishness?

Has he made any comments on these protests at all?

[geek tragedy]

4. not his job, delegates yes he had some responsiblity, which he fulfilled.

But we can't expect him to chaperone every rando on the street wearing a Bernie button.

[BeyondGeography]

10. That would make him the first candidate ever who asked his supporters not to fart

I can see why he'd hesitate.

[leftofcool]

3. They must be so proud of themselves. I'm sure Bernie is................NOT

[Avalux]

5. How many people are these "Sanders supporters?"

I think Honkala's stunt may be attractive to some, but seriously - it's offensive the journalist who wrote this doesn't press her for the number of people who will attend her bean dinner.

Just saying "Sanders supporters" is obviously meant to stir controversy.

6. When they go blow, we go good bye.

The Democratic campaign may kiss the arses of adults who act this way in public but I won't.

7. Honkala is an attention seeking douchebag

[superpatriotman]

8. Farts are quite funny!

Shitting one's pants, however.

DO be careful out there, folks.

[GoCubsGo]

9. Yeah, their bellies will be full of beans, but their intestines won't be.

And, that's where flatuence develops. Too bad for them that the farts aren't going to kick in until tomorrow. It takes several hours for a meal to reach the intestines. In all likelihood, their "fart-in" will happen when they're driving home.

13. Have a nice flight home.

Someone should lock the doors during their great bean supper.
From the outside..
Enjoy your sleepover.

11. classy.

not.

[WillowTree]

14. Damn.......you beat me to it!

[spanone]

15. ...

[Salviati]

12. Is it immature of me to wish that everyone who tries this...

... just winds up shitting their pants?

It would be a fitting metaphor.

[Yavin4]

16. So instead of focusing on getting more progressives elected across the spectrum

they would rather do things like this, and then they wonder why the establishment mocks them.

[quickesst]

17. I predict...

.... the odor of their farts will be less offensive than the odor of their character.

[mfcorey1]

19. You get today's internet award for the truth.

[quickesst]

21. Thanks

These people's lack of common sense and logic leaves me cold and without any sympathy at all.

[global1]

18. This Is Just Disgusting And Childish....nt

[Buckeye_Democrat]

20. Good grief

Those Bernie supporters are awesome...
