Sectarian threats on Bebo

by Trench on December 19th, 2006

Schools meet internet company over sectarian hate messages:
Being of Irish descent it breaks my heart to see that religious violence is still going on in Northern Ireland no matter which side is being hurt. It bothers me even more that it’s being perpetuated on Bebo�

Police and representatives from schools in a town blighted by sectarian violence in the North today met an internet company about tackling hate messages on its site.

Representatives from hit teen site Bebo, which carried threats against teenagers in the wake of 15-year-old Michael McIlveen’s murder in Ballymena in May, met police from the town and representatives from grammar and secondary schools on both sides of the religious divide.

Michael McIlveen was beaten by a gang, who identified him as a Catholic and chased him from cinema.

But it is good to see that Bebo is getting involved to try and do something about it.
