Related: About this forumGreg Abbott Supporters Make Public Death Threats Against Wendy Davis
The comments on Greg Abbott's Facebook posts are getting very, very ugly.
Abbott's male supporters are routinely making death threats against Wendy Davis.
In the image to the right, a man demands that someone shoot Davis. There are far too many examples of this kind of rhetoric up and down Abbott's official campaign Facebook page. This escalates the disgraceful rhetoric his campaign has already promoted -- Abbott personally thanked someone who called Davis "retard barbie" and the campaign's top strategist publicized an article calling Davis "too stupid to be governor".
Worst of all, the Abbott campaign appears not to moderate its comments at all to weed out such hateful, violent remarks. But removing them isn't enough.

Come on Texan DUers - or any FB using DUers - go post some comments, see if they get deleted before the death threats do.
