The people who are threatening Louise Mensch and her children should be locked up for a very long time.

I've not been a big fan of Louise Mensch and her views around how the government should grant the police powers to turn off social media should they so desire - as posts like this and this indicate.

However there is absolutely no justification that she should be subjected to threats against her children for whatever views she may hold, and it makes me sick to the stomach that she has been. The scum responsible for this are not only evil - they are also gobsmackingly stupid, as they cannot seem to see that they are attempting to deny Louise the freedom of speech that they allegedly are fighting to support.

While I don't share her views on control of social media, she has all my sympathy that she has been the subject of this foul attack.
