Kathy Sierra, who I have never met, is among the strongest people I know. Having been threatened physically and sexually and having the strength and fortitude to publicly admit and begin confronting this . . . wow.

She stands for what the United Nations proclaims in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights:

"Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, . . . "

Kathy, follow your beliefs and keep standing tall. Thank you for showing how to best not allow your voice to be silenced.

Hello,

In trying to express my rage and unrest towards these violent events made to Kathy, I created a small graphic called “Zero Violence Blog”. I’ve posted it in my blog hoping people will download the images and include them in a small post relating to freedom of speech, and expressing the support Kathy must be needing today. If you feel like doing so, please head there or ask me and I will e-mail the logos directly to you.

I hope you are moved enough as to try to express yourselves and do something now, before violence spreads wider into our blogging lives.

Thanks,
Ron E.
