I am so sorry Gabby and I know Hillary is too

OMG! Gabby is being horribly attacked on her Face Book page by Bernie supporters. Some of the vile things being said one should never say to their worst enemy. I hope and pray that Trayvon Martin's mom does not get the same treatment.

When I went to the link there were no registered users and two guests there. Not much traffic. Supporters say things. Candidates are lucky if they can control their own responses let alone those of others.

and what I saw were horrible typical reactions to Gabby endorsing Hillary. Typical ugly reactions when anyone endorses Hillary over BS. They cannot handle it and take it out on poor Gabby Giffords.

But, it's a reflection on them and says nothing about the Beautiful Gabby Giffords. I'm thinking she knows she most definitely is supporting the right candidate.

If she and Mark had endorsed Sanders and I would certainly not be raging on Gabby Giffords.

Gabby and Mark had excellent reasons to give their support to Hillary.. as she is strong on sensible gun laws and has a long history of it.

To teach a lesson to their supporters. The Guardian had an article about the similarities between the supporters.

Come on, Bernie supporters? We're better than that. Take the high road and get people on your side. Build bridges. By posting attacks on others, not only do you do the opposite of what Bernie would do, but you're also taking votes away from him with your actions. Be mature and stop the petty antics.

It has been clear for some time that these outrageous behaviors are not from people who are interested in electing Democrats or really in democracy in general. Digital vandals.

His supporters are going to wake up on Super Tuesday wonder why their hero isn't in the lead and hopefully by my State's primary March 15, hopefully Hillary will have this locked up

Video-game fueled millennial men who have no qualms at all about swearing at and trash-talking to their opponents in online combat. They treat this like a digital battlefield.
