Julie at Connecticut Catholic Corner--a popular traditionalist Catholic blog--has been "locked out" of her Twitter account for the last twelve hours after tweeting that the pro-gay marriage celebratory behavior of Connecticut governor Dan Malloy made her "want to puke":
Your account has been locked
Your account appears to have exhibited automated behavior that violates the Twitter Rules. To unlock your account, please click the button below and confirm you are the valid account owner.
(There follows a button that says "Unlock my account".)But so far, Twitter has not unlocked her account. And according to Julie, she has written three messages to Twitter without receiving a response.
She believes it was done on the request of Governor Malloy.
In many cases these things end up amounting "merely" to temporary harassment. The winner of the Draw Muhammad contest Bosch Fawstin was banned from Facebook for roughly the same period, due presumably to an initial critical mass of malicious complaints. But he was soon enough reinstated.
I hope this is what it in the end amounts to, though according to the latest comments from Julie, she is still locked out.
By the way, I was not aware of her blog before. But it's very useful and very faithful. And she's received a billion more hits than I have. It is hereby added to my (still fairly short) blog roll. I urge other Catholic bloggers to do the same.
It will serve the pukeworthy Governor right.
