The cynical side of me says she completely overblew the case in terms of the effects the comments had on her, because she wants the right to receive comments that are in some way advantageous to her and I don't think she has that right. Who the hell gives legitimate death threats on social media anyway if they were serious when they would be identifying themselves in the process?

Did he identify himself publicly, or was he hiding behind anonymous accounts?
