The revenge of a blogger

Nov 30, 2006

Although I wouldn’t advise you to click your assaulter while he or she is assaulting you (because you should be saving yourself at that moment), Jackie Danicki did exactly this. She clicked the photograph of her assaulter and published it on her blog. I got the link to Jackie’s post from this Blog Heral post. What a courageous woman she is! All my sympathies and admiration go to her and it’s sad she had to go through all this; and on top of that she is not even entitled to protect herself — she says on her blog that you’re not even allowed to carry a pepper spray with you. Well, this is silly.

I think this is a good way of bringing such menaces to the fore — by publishing their photos on your blogs and other social-media web pages and then disseminating the link as much as possible. This way even the somnolent and apathetic police force will be forced to take some action.
