11. When you rile people up in order to win their support, there are going to be bad side-effects.

You attract perpetually angry people who make up shiite hoping to "punish" those who have the temerity to support your rival. This is par for the course with the more passionate Sanders supporters who've gone after Hillary Clinton supporters and surrogates in ways that could only make Teapublicans proud.

I suspect more and more of these types of "rumors" will be floated as Bernie finally decides to concede to the winner of the Democratic Party nominee, and it will eventually turn on him for not fighting up to Election Day or to at least run as a third-party candidate. This is the price he'll have to pay for running such a negative campaign against Democrats and the Democratic Party.

And just so you know, this is the Hillary Clinton Group. Behave.
