Gypsy Rose Blanchard urged her followers to sign an online harassment petition to honor her fianc\u00e9, Ken Urker, after his tragic death<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn honor of Ken, I am asking for your support for Kenan\u2019s Law. \ud83e\udd0d,\u201d she captioned an Instagram post<\/a> Sunday. <\/p>\n

\u201cBefore his passing, Ken experienced an overwhelming amount of online scrutiny and what we believed crossed the line into targeted harassment and cyberbullying,\u201d the reality star claimed.<\/p>\n

\u201cReports were made across multiple platforms, and far too often, the response was simply: \u2018No violation.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Blanchard, 35, said the law will be about \u201cchanging the way social-media platforms handle repeated reports of harassment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne post viewed alone may not tell the whole story\u2014but hundreds of posts, videos and comments directed at one person can reveal a pattern that deserves meaningful review,\u201d she penned.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not about silencing criticism or taking away anyone\u2019s freedom of speech. Public figures can and should be criticized. But public figures are still human beings, and fame should never erase someone\u2019s humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n
