2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI'm proud of how attendees conduct themselves at Bernie and Hillary rallies
Supporters follow the lead of their candidate, and while there are some differences between how Bernie and Hillary handle hecklers and disrupters, both candidates--and their supporters in the crowd--treat them with at least a minimal respect. Certainly, violence is not tolerated. Maybe it's because Bernie's supporters and Hillary's supporters just understand what being a democratic citizen is all about.

We do understand, and we all behave appropriately. Both Bernie's supporters and Hillary's supporters.

Here is a Trump supporter at a Bernie rally.
As you can see, the supporters respond calmly. Some well deserved booing and that's it.
NOW, we go to tRump rally. That crowd reacts a little differently.
