If you've got a public blog, I'd say that's analogous to having a public twitter account (i.e. anyone can see your tweets).
On a public twitter account, if you block someone they can still see your tweets, and they can still talk about you. You just can't see it.
Blocking a post from HN would mean people on HN wouldn't even see it or be able to talk about it. We might be assholes, but we should still be able to talk about stuff within the parameters laid out by HN.
Another solution might just be to disable commenting in your posts if the referer is HN.
