I mean come on now.
And now you've brought the argument full circle. Just as I mentioned that you can't expect people who agree with SE to sit by while they insult and threat, you're saying that you can't expect supporters to sit by when others say "too bad so sad" (or the equivalent). So it's just a vicious circle.

But I would argue that the worst of the vitriol is coming from supporters. Yes, there are bad apples on both sides, but there's a disproportionate amount of insults and threats, I would say. That's not to say I condone it, but I don't think the amount of vitriol is even on both sides.
