I have just been expelled from an msn community for challenging a racist post. Since my expulsion I have received abusive and threatening e-mails from a member of the group. I suspect that abusive e-mails have been sent to at least one ethnic minority member in my name. Can anyone help?

This isn't a site for racists, it is a relationship/dating site. I challenged a post which included the words "Islamic filth" and was removed because my "anti racist views were not accepted by the managers, who wanted to keep it free from those of the "Islamic terrorist persuasion" Incidentally, I am not muslim. Hardly freedom of speach.

What were you doing there in the first place? It's like complaining about a virus when you visit a porn site.

Check the T&C of the site before you do anything else. There are places that let you say what you like and it's up to the person accessing the site if they read it.
If it's the case of that then there is nothing you can do. Tho personally I don't see why, everyone is free to have an oppinion. It's when it goes from the verbal on websites to the public real world domain that the problem really starts.

NO WAY! ARE YOU NUTS?
Here are your options:
(1) Discontinue going to the MSN community in question, block the e-mails from the individual member that is sending them to you, report the individual that is harassing you via e-mail
(2) Report the community and compromise everyone's rights to free speech on the Internet, report the individual that is harassing you
Please support Free Speech, choose option 1.

Have in your mind it may not be a racist community, but merely a racist member of that community (May not, I don't know...........as does no one by this question)
Either way, use the link that I have listed in my source

people like you threaten the very fabric of freedom of speech,
what you consider to be wrong maybe is just a result of your conditioning and doesnt make you more right than them.
If you dont like what you see you have the right not to read or consider it.
Please dont spoil the internet for all those who support and cherish free speech

Report it to the authorities.
Racism needs kicking into touch

This sounds menacing. You should report the person to MSN and block their email address from your email account so you can't get sent anymore messages from this person.
