Bernie Sanders: ‘Terrorists’ and Hate Groups Are Targeting Black Communities

‘There are still those who seek to terrorize, and they are terrorists, the African-American community with violence and intimidation’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

BERNIE SANDERS: "Furthermore, we have to to take a hard look -- and the tragedy last month in South Carolina reminds me of that so strongly -- that there are still those who seek to terrorize, and they are terrorists, the African-American community with violence and intimidation. Some of us thought that that had ended 50 years ago, but it hasn't. We need to make sure that federal resources are available to crack down on the illegal activities of hate groups. [Applause] There are hundreds of groups in this country whose sole reason for existence is hatred of African-Americans, hatred of immigrants, hatred of Jews, hatred of catholics. That has got to end, and the federal government must be active in ending that."
