No one more than I am excited about the enthusiastic participation by supporters of any of the Democratic candidates, but, there is a limit. No one is a supporter if they are behind bars. Enthusiasm is wonderful, bad judgement of violence is simply that bad judgement.

Every person involved in these primaries have a reason to be proud, let's continue that success.
