Ned Kelly's Armour
I keep getting strange comments from a Sam Sebastian (a pseudonym) on my personal blog. He hasn't yet threatened violence, so I have left them up for historical purposes:

I suspect the latest round of comments relates to the publication of this book by David Dufty, and a hope that somehow Australians will give up the affection they still have for Ned:

Let me be clear, I do not condone violence against police officers. Ned was a
man of his time and his circumstance, as was Michael Collins. Folk songs are not just about recording history, they are also about recording how we feel about history, be it fictional or true, or a bit of both.
