I’ve seen folks here post incorrect information about people they didn’t like for political reasons

Did it force those people to flee their houses? Don't think so.

Please, you post a phone number or address of someone on the internet and encourage folks to call or torment them that is harrassment, regardless of your political bent. You think people haven’t had their lives severely harmed by spiteful actions on the internet, you are foolish.

And yes, I’ve seen it happen here.

People need to think before they act, and political world view does not give a pass to folks who agree with you doing it.

Anyone doing such things, even if they have the right information, and often it turns out to be wrong, are nothing more than petty cowards, and frankly I think whatever a persons reasons for doing it, they should be punished.

We cannot have a civil society if we cannot engage in basic civility. Yes, I am sure Spike’s tweet got to more people than a post on Free Republic, but that doesn’t mean folks on the right haven’t done similar things.
