Showing Original Post only (View all)Curt Schilling’s revenge on trolls who threatened daughter [View all]
Former Red Sox ace Curt Schilling turned the Internet loose on his Twitter antagonists after he announced his daughter Gabby would be pitching for Salve Reginas college softball team.
Schillings fond paternal congratulations were met with tweets with the word rape, bloody underwear and pretty much every other vulgar and defiling word you could likely fathom, the ESPN analyst wrote on his blog.
Schilling outed those responsible for the most heinous social media abuses:
The Sports Guru? Ya hes a DJ named Adam Nagel (DJ is a bit strong since hes on the air for 1 hour a week) on Brookdale Student Radio at Brookdale Community College. How do you think that place feels about this stud representing their school? You dont think this isnt going to be a nice compilation that will show up every single time this idiot is googled the rest of his life? What happens when a potential woman hes after googles and reads this?
And now Nagel is paying the price. Brookdale CC announced he was summarily suspended and will be scheduled for a conduct hearing where further disciplinary action will be taken. The Brookdale Police are actively investigating this matter. Brookdale takes this behavior very seriously and does not tolerate any form of harassment.

Unfortunately that guy was only one of several young men threatening rape, assault, and so on.

Outing someone making vile threats is hardly revenge, it's basic responsibility.

Um, no. Schilling had no bad words for the Gamergate trolls for threatening feminists.
