I doubt very much that HRC is behind the BLM attacks on Bernie. And there is no evidence to support that claim. Soros funding of BLM is not evidence.
There are many possible reasons why BLM is targeting Sanders. And no, it's not just Seattle. For one thing, he's accessible. He attracts large crowds. He's a white male. Can you even imagine the shit storm that would occur if BLM reps tweeted under the hash tag "BowDownHillary"? Those activists targeting Bernie almost surely know that there is a huge reservoir of goodwill for HRC within the black community. Bernie doesn't have that. He's a new figure for most of the black community.
Do these attacks benefit HRC? Sure, but that's not her fault, nor does she have any obligation to come to his defense. Personally, I think she'd benefit from doing so and that it would be the right thing to do, but as I said, she has no obligation to do so.
