I've received from feedback from friends and family that I consider blogging anonymously because of perceived danger to myself or others. In particular, they are concerned that my posts about the San Gabriel Valley Transit Authority might drive come people to violence. Considering that the story involves convicted felons who are reported to be members of a Swedish Mafia, and terrorist, and anti-terrorist, and money.
My mom is one of the people. She told me that I like to get in people's faces. So, she is worried.
I don't feel that that I ask any questions that any other normal person would ask. I am always curious on how things work. How things got the way they are. Or why people make the decisions they do. Personally, I do not feel any danger. In the above case, I thought it was rather civil.
I expect people to be able to defend and explain their own decsions and actions. So I don't think that it is right that I should act like a coward and hide behind mask to ask the questions I want answered.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

I think you should go anonymous. Some of your posts target specific organizations; on occasion you comment on political issues. This could make you or your relatives a target.
Besides, none of the points you are making either benefit or lose from knowing your name.
At least this was my conclusion for my own blog.
I think you should go anonymous too. You never know.
I say SPEAK YOUR MIND AND USE YOUR NAME!
