Pro-life students at Exeter University say they have received death threats over their views on abortion.
Christian Concern, which is supporting Students for Life, has warned of an escalation in cancel culture after 7,000 people signed a petition demanding that the group be "abolished".
The society exists to equip pro-life students with the tools they need to share their views "in a sensitive and respectful way".
The petition against it has been sent along with an open letter to university authorities, but Christian Concern says it follows a "campaign of abuse" against the Students for Life Instagram page.
Members of the group say they have received chilling threats with one message telling them they would "end up at the bottom of the quay".
The threats have been reported to university authorities and Devon and Cornwall police.
Alireza Ghazi-Torbati, President of the Exeter University Students For Life, is calling on the university to take immediate action.
"The death threats made against members of our society are completely unacceptable and deeply disturbing," he said.

Evil.
No other word for it.
Evil. Pure evil.
Oddly enough, all 7000 are alive.
One of the hardest things to get used to is just how much evil there is in the world today
2017 enrollment was 22540, only 7000 alleged students (with allegedly no duplication) signed the petition.
[[7,000 people signed a petition demanding that the group be “abolished”.]]
How about the pro life group sign a petition demanding that ANYONE from the 7000 who threatens the pro life group be arrested?
[[Oddly enough, all 7000 are alive.]]
Lol- the pro life group should say to the 7000 “Sorry folks- you weren’t aborted, so you get no say on the issue”
Good point- the group should get the 15000 to sign a petition demanding that the school remove the 7000’s right to free speech, since that is what the 700 are tryign to do to the pro life group
Once many of the petition signatures are shown to be duplicates and/or bogus, those who started the petition should be expelled.
