I can't help it. I was born sneering.
May. 7th, 2013 09:13 amEdit: For anyone who's keeping track, I received my very own letter this morning, at my work address, addressed to me using a middle initial which I don't use socially but which appears on official records.
The letter arrived several hours after I'd written a parody referencing myself as one of the people affected by the threatened lawsuit. Admittedly, I did post a single comment on one of the contested posts. However, I'd much prefer to think either that I'm psychic or that there's a blue police box in my future.
Further edit: My mother received a copy of the letter, addressed to me, at her home address (where I was once, briefly registered to vote while I was between apartment leases in two other cities). She is very upset. To avoid any further risk of involving my family in this mess, I've removed the potentially objectionable content.

Why settle for one? It's a flexible universe.

Are we up to 50 people/day yet?

The reason I did not get to see this is because somebody who is insane* has successfully been able to silence someone through intimidation both legal and personal.

Date: 2013-05-07 08:19 pm (UTC)I don't think the letter being sent to my folks' house was intentional harassment, for what it's worth. It was my mailing address of record for voter-reg stuff at some point, and apparently those are the records to which he's got access. I mean, the fact that the letters are being sent at all might be harassment, but the fact that I received one at my parents' house doesn't represent any particular escalation.
