" The world felt like a sad enough place this morning when we reported on the shocking video made by Hollaback, an organisation set up to put a stop to sexist street harassment. The actress in the video, Shoshana Roberts, filmed herself walking around New York for 10 hours with a GoPro camera in her friend&amp;#039;s backpack. And the results were unbelievable. But ultimately, the experience Shoshana had turned out to be a positive one; the video went viral and it has, in a short space of time, started an important conversation about cat calling and everyday sexism in general.  Until now, that is. When, in our modern world&amp;#039;s typically sad way, any good has been overshadowed by the fact that internet trolls have begun harassing Shoshana online with insults over her appearance, and worse: threats of rape. Hollaback tweeted about the outrageous comments being posted onto the YouTube video&amp;#039;s page - which has now had over 7.5 million views since it was uploaded just yesterday, and it doesn&amp;#039;t take a detective to see what they mean.    The subject of our PSA is starting to get rape threats on the comments. Can you help by reporting them? http://t.co/NMYCFd9YOm \u2014 Hollaback! (@iHollaback) October 28, 2014    Reportedly, the people at Hollaback are working hard to remove the abusive and unnecessary comments from the page, but because they are coming in at such a fast rate, it has been impossible for them to keep up.    This is yet another example of sad, cowardly people using their keyboards as a weapon to people who have done nothing wrong. It&amp;#039;s seriously unnecessary, and it&amp;#039;s getting seriously tedious. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
