One of my fears coming true for another bloggerViews: 63
Mar 29, 2007 5:18 pm One of my fears coming true for another blogger

Danielle (Dani) Cutler
Came across this from another blog I read, http://jaymoonah.com/blog/2007/03/28/blogger-code-of-conduct/ :

Death threats against bloggers are NOT "protected speech" (why I cancelled my ETech presentations)

As I type this, I am supposed to be in San Diego, delivering a workshop at the ETech conference. But I'm not. I'm at home, with the doors locked, terrified. For the last four weeks, I've been getting death threat comments on this blog. But that's not what pushed me over the edge. What finally did it was some disturbing threats of violence and sex posted on two other blogs... blogs authored and/or owned by a group that includes prominent bloggers. People you've probably heard of. People like respected Cluetrain Manifesto co-author Chris Locke (aka Rageboy).

MUCH more at:

This was quite scary to read, but I praise her from coming right out and showing what has been said to her. What are your thoughts about hate speech and blogging?
