“Elderly couple abandons their home after address is posted on Twitter as that of George Zimmerman” read the headline of an article yesterday in the Orlando Sentinel. Spike Lee’s twitter account went into Radio Silence yesterday morning after it was revealed he mistakenly tweeted to over 247,000 twitter followers the address of an elderly Florida couple instead of George Zimmerman’s address, the man who shot Trayvon Martin. Mr. Lee’s tweet resulted in hate mail, strangers dropping by, and other disturbances that panicked the couple who then fled from their home for fear of their lives. It remains to be seen if Spike Lee will contact the couple to assist them financially with the costs associated with their having to abandon their home or at minimum publicly apologize to them for his putting their lives in danger.

The Hollywood Reporter was reporting last night that the “Elderly Couple at Address Spike Lee Tweeted Are Living in Fear” as some of Lee’s twitter followers tweeted, “Let’s turn up the heat on his bitch ass!!!” and “Get this mutha f#####!!” as the followers retweeted the elderly couple’s address after being misled by Spike Lee.

As some criticized George Zimmerman for going into hiding, Spike Lee apparently took a similar cowardly route. “A call placed to Lee's office in New York was answered by a man who said the film director was unavailable for comment.” Unbelievable!

Perhaps Spike Lee should rethink his silence and follow the title of his academy award nominated film and Do the Right Thing and stop inciting racial tensions that could result in potential violence to innocent individuals.

Mr. Lee we, and these old folks in Florida, await your apology.

Is the elderly couple white? If so, Spike Lee does not give a rat’s behind and is probably glad he did it. There’ll be no apology unless they’re black.

Elderly couple should sue the turds out of Spike.

Just heard about this on the Dennis Miller show. Hey Spike, know all that money you got that buys you front row seats at every Knicks game? Say buh-bye to dat!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

If anything happens to this couple, their next-of-kin will wind up owning all of Spike’s stuff.

He would be an accomplice if anything happens to these people, would he not?

Since the last presidential election we have had a great but disturbing insight what the USA will look like when the perpetual victims become our rulers.

Seems they are not ready for prime time civilization.

Too bad as this would have been a great opportunity to heal those open wounds but these DNA challenged scum are pouring acid into those wounds until they are now starting to bleed. FOOLS everyone of them.

[Prov1322]

In a real world, where we were not under the boots of a lawless regime, clowns like Higgins and Lee would still be answering questions in the FBI and Homeland Security offices for these terroristic threats.

But that will have to wait until January, 2013.

As a longtime participant in boycotting rotten american pop culture, I can safely say I have not spent a dime subsidizing Spike Lee's pay.

Someone has already beaten me to it, but yes, if the elderly couple is white, Spike Lee will be just as happy.

[ml/nj]

Seems to me they have a civil case against Lee. They have clearly suffered financial damage and mental anguish caused directly by an action taken by Spike Lee. If I were them, I'd be looking for ten mil at least.

Spike Lee is a domestic terrorist.

[Dutchboy88]

Anyone know Lee’s address?

Where can I buy the t-shirt?

WE ARE ALL GEORGE ZIMMERMAN

Victims of the race baiters & poverty pimps:

Barack Obama, Eric Holder, Democratic Party,

Spike Lee, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton,

"journalists" in the main stream newspapers,

"journalists" in broadcast news at CNN, ABC, CBS, & NBC

[Qbert]

Evidently he doesn’t care. If he did, he would make an honest effort to rectify the situation...

[PLD]

Spike Lee,is a black racist someone needs to give out his address and tell people to visit him and scare the mess out of him .Everyone stop going to his racist movies..Ever time I see his name on anything I will not rent it..Lets look hard for his filthy address..Stupid black fools..

It doesn't matter what color these folks are I can just imagine how scared they were and are..

What ever these blacks are looking for I am afraid they won't like when it is over..They think they are so tough well we will see..

[upchuck]

Mr. Lee, since you are obviously not very smart, let me offer you some advice:

Apologize to this couple posthaste and offer them some large cash (at least $100K) for their trouble. (News reports say they have fled the home in fear.)

Elderly couple, since you are innocent bystanders in this, I'd suggest you sue the crap outta Mr. Lee.

"Spike Lee Silent After His Tweet Jeopardizes Elderly Couple's Lives"

Mr. Lee I say this from the bottom of my heart, I hope the most vile nasty ambulance chasing pack of lawyers sue your ass to kingdom come on behalf of this poor couple. And I hope they empties you bank accounts and send you to the po' house!

[CORedneck]

Too bad we cannot reinstate 1950’s style blacklist for communist and traitors. A-holes like Spike would no longer get any work to do !
