The one on Sanders left is driving his fingers in between Sanders' bicep muscle and his bone inside toward the body so you can't see it - that hurts. The other one is twisting Sander's right arm while Sanders is leaned forward so he is hanging from the twisted arm. That hurts more. These are special police holds for demonstrators so the police get them under control while not seeming to be doing much. As a pro-lifer I experienced both of them. I also see that only Sanders is being arrested which suggests that he was a leader. Arresting the leaders as soon as possible is another police tactic.<br /><br />Not that I like Sanders. I'm sure he'd send in the police to do it all and more to me if I demonstrated for life in the Stalinist state he love to bring to America. wildswanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975129877750876072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-71196640739527807212016-02-20T18:22:56.465-06:002016-02-20T18:22:56.465-06:00"OK, I just checked, and that condom I bought..."OK, I just checked, and that condom I bought as a freshman in case I ever got lucky is not looking too good."<br /><br />Oh yeah, I'm wondering about the shelf life of Viagra too.dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758740197698814061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-90124888401303210642016-02-20T18:03:21.941-06:002016-02-20T18:03:21.941-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Etiennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02463542962653770911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-24643345490505534092016-02-20T17:46:32.331-06:002016-02-20T17:46:32.331-06:00This helps Bern if you think Black folks consider ...This helps Bern if you think Black folks consider civil rights cred yesterday more important than a government check today.
