We Support Kathy Sierra

Kathy
Well-known blogger Kathy Sierra has called on the blogosphere to fight the society of mistreatment online.
Kathy Sierra is a famous blogger well know for her blog ‘Creating Passionate Users.’ Her blogs are read by million of people around the world. Recently she got death threats on one of her blog posting. Some crook even posted her head next to a noose and commented "the only thing Kathy has to offer me is that noose in her neck size." Since then Kathy has stop writing blog, she is afraid to even move out of her home. She fears that some one might kill her. The person has cause a mental agony to the writer by his act of ignorance.

And why all this threat? Just because she is a women in male dominated technology field? I say it’s ridiculous . I would like to inform Kathy not to be afraid of such moron and cowards. They are not aware of power of women. Do they think that just by posting some photo they can stop a intelligent women from expressing her opinions? No never. Be it any field be it any challenge and situation women power will never be diminish and we will continue to progress. These threats are not going to stop Kathy in fighting a true cause.

Kathy Sierra you are a brave women and we all are with you. The police should act fast and catch such culprits who doesn’t know to respect a women’s rights to opinion. I request all human being and especially women to support Kathy Sierra in her difficult times. If today we do not fight this nuisance tomorrow it’s going to come back to haunt us for ever. And a threat be it small or big changes your life to very large extend.

Let us pledge our support to Kathy.

I hope you don't mind me saying but you really need to rephrase your title. At the moment with it being "We Support Death threat to Kathy Sierra" it sounds like you support the death threats made against Kathy. Although it's obvious from your content that you fully support Kathy and not the threats made against her.

Maybe change the title to the last line of your post: "Let us pledge our support to Kathy."

Stella, that `aspiring journalist' bit rings a bit hollow as I read the title of your post. I know what you meant, but you didn't come close to saying it. It probably highlights the larger Kathy Sierra-related issue. People need to take a little time and figure out exactly what they're trying to say and do instead of hyperventilating over something someone 3,000 miles away typed on a computer.

We all are in support to Kathy for threat.She doesn't need to run like this.she must have to fight against them they cant do any thing if she doesn't frighten to there threats.

Hope you don't mind for this.
But i am not happy with your statement like
because she is a women in male dominated technology field?
If you wanna to be journalism they you must be neutral mind.You can say like this it shows you are against men.Is that true?

Stella said...

No I am not against any gender as such. But to certain extent I feel the same that Kathy felt that it's probably the male dominated area and generally it is seen that males do not like any women to move ahead in their dominated field.

BTW thanks for your suggestion and comments.

Dear Stella,
It is a free world where people can express their views in their own style and idea but one should respect the legal rights and law of that nation.If the act of the individual threatens her/his safety then I think that law is with her/him.
I must mention Taslima Nasrin of Bangladesh for writing "Lajja".The whole nation was against her but they could not subdue her strength and courage.
So, I think the world looks at an individual as an individual and it is not gender biased.

No,
Women should not be treated like Goddess because they are human beings like us males.Yes,they should be respected and must be given equal opportunity which is their birth right.
(A GODDESS IS EXPLOITED BUT IF A IT IS A LIVING THING LIKE WOMAN THEN SHE WILL HAVE HER OWN INDIVIDUALITY AND CAN DEMAND RESPECT FROM OTHERS)

hi stella
u r really my next door girl.why to give special status to woman.treat them equally.by according special staus to any group either on ground of sex,social grouping or any classification without any rational basis, we creat problems resulting maladjustment.treatment based on normalicy is recommended from my side.ultimatly ,equality will bring peace n harmony.
