We reported earlier this month that politician John Edwards set up an in-game headquarters in Second Life. There's probably nothing wrong with that as some French political parties did the same earlier on. However, things got a little out of hand when some residents vandalized the said HQ.
Edwards, himself, blogged about the matter and according to him, these are group of Republican SL users with some carrying "Bush 08" tags. Furthermore, the group covered the office with Marxist as well as Leninist posters and slogans. Edwards added that there was also feces spewing obscenity and a picture of him in black face.
The group was out of control, Edwards mentioned, as they harassed visitors and threw out obscenity-laden abuse of Democrats in general. The former North Carolina senator commented,
I witnessed this event, taking names and photos, including the owners of the pictures. I also kept and saved a copy of the chat log. I have filed an abuse report with Linden Labs, and am awaiting their investigation.
The said "attack" occurred shortly before midnight (CST) last Monday, February 26.
