"Fuck you and i hope you die soon!"
"YES beverly please kill yourself and stop fucking little kids and spewing your hate all over the place!! Yes i know i am stooping to your level but sometimes good people have to fight fire with fire and i am good and you are most definitely the devil so please please die bev!"
She was also called a lying bitch, a cunt, a twat, and was repeatedly told that she was probably not a good soldier and wasn't there for the "real fighting."
Again, politics aside -- it really seems that when the opinionated commenter is female, the number of death threats, ad hominem attacks, and just disgusting language in general towards said commenter increases exponentially.
Beverly's posts were passionate, and at times used profanity as well -- but, as another commenter pointed out on the thread, nobody deserves to have death wished upon them for their opinions. Especially one who actually put her life on the line being in the military.
Beverly followed Miller's advice about "Or better yet, enlist for the real thing. Maybe our military could whip some of you into shape." She came back after military service, had trouble making ends-meet, and joined OWS:
This OWS topic is complex and again, I'm not here to say I'm for or against it. It's not a topic that's going to be solved in the comments section of a post, that's for sure -- and just because these troglodytes wish death on a woman doesn't mean that reflects Miller's point-of-view or is something he condones. But good God. Maybe the first two steps to having America go back to the "good old days" is to respect women and our returning veterans. If these "good old days" indeed existed."I am one of these OWS people you're talking about. A war vet, a student and I've had just about enough of you republicunt asshats calling me and my people lazy. Just because we want to end BULLSHIT engagements in the middle east over fucking oil?! Just because we want tainted money OUT of our government?! What unwarranted charity?! I don't get food stamps, I don't qualify for any monetary assistance from the government because I make 8.00 an hour, less than 16 hours a week! My apartment is leaking, mold in my walls, rats in my kitchen, I rent my computer, close to 50 dollars a week just to cart around this god forsaken, rusty ass city to get to where I need to be to rinse and repeat for THIS BULL SHIT LIFE THAT I SACRIFICED 4 years of my life for?!"
