The "guy" (it may actually be a bot doing it) has been bouncing from LJ to LJ leaving pro-Gibson "Passion of the Christ" postings on any LJ that allows anonymous posts. The text has been exactly the same, word for word, in the 3 posts I've seen so far.

If one shows up in your LJ, delete it immediately. Don't bother replying, as this thing isn't actually interested in your opinion; he's just leaving pro-movie advertising as blog-spam and moving on.

Short-term solutions: disable anonymous posting until the hype dies down, though I expect similar things to show up in time, especially if, like the Nigerian email scam, its a programmed "bot" doing it and not someone doing it by hand.

Longer-term solutions: turn on IP logging and anonymous posting, hope you get it, and report it to the LJ admins. This, of course, requires more work, and might not get the spam if he doesn't bounce back to your LJ to post it to.
This account has disabled anonymous posting.
