I'm a Libertarian living in Humboldt County, CA. I've lived here in Eureka since 1973 and joined the Libertarian Party in 1992. This blog will mostly focus on local political issues, but I may stray into state and national issues as well, when I can't help myself. Please post your comments by clicking on the "comments" link at the bottom of each post. Although I do moderate comments, you need not be a registered user to post them.
Sandy, over at the Junkfood Science blog, tells us a rather tragic tale of some internet trolling gone horribly wrong (or did it?). I guess we should be surprised that adults can do such things but, after some of the commentary I've seen in the blogosphere, I'm not.

God, that is an awful story!
This was interesting..."The bottom line is that any entity on the internet who is hiding behind a fictitious avatar or fake name is no more your friend or a reputable source of information than a masked man in a dark alley. There are also cyberbullies who use the same cruel, nasty techniques of any other bully — often promoting hate and prejudice... They don’t deserve any more attention than you would give something written on a bathroom wall.
No unknown entity can be taken credibly....
No kidding rose. There are folks out there with crazy names like Ekovox , and Ladyfriend; I mean it just leaves you wondering...
All good names, lodgepole.
