The New York Times published information about the address of Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson on Monday in a move that has generated controversy. Tensions are running high in Ferguson, Missouri, as the world awaits a St. Louis County grand jury’s decision on whether to indict the white policeman for the Aug. 9 shooting death of unarmed black teen Michael Brown.
Wilson received death threats after he was identified as the officer who shot Brown, and as community members and activists plan to protest if he is not indicted, the location of his home could potentially endanger him, his new wife, and his property if the protests result in violence, some of his defenders say. Wilson’s home address is a matter of public record, and it has been published in numerous media reports beginning in August.
But printing his street name in the nation’s most influential newspaper on the day the grand jury is expected to hand up a decision on the indictment could reignite interest in -- and awareness of -- the location, and some critics worry that it could result in protesters descending on his home. Slate even went a step further than the Times, publishing an article featuring a photo of the modest, red-brick house on Monday....

I agree, it doesn’t matter. But misleading thread titles make FR look like a bunch of knuckle dragging idiots.
This was probably done by Holder and “His people” knowing that there would be NO charges filed against Wilson..POS scum, that is what Holder and his minions are..someone should post their addresses see how they like it
New York Times...Another big city liberal rag!
Officer Wilson should sue the NYSlimes for destroying his peaceful habitation.
Dear God.
If anyone should have their place burnt down, its the old gray lady, but, she’s dying anyway. MSNBC will probably buy if they don’t already own it. This Lib reporter is typical hippy era, they only see things their way and they are never wrong. If they are wrong it will never be admitted in the NYT, but sometimes you may find an admission if you look carefully in the classifieds, somewhere around the used refrigerator listings.
Find and deliver Justice to any involved in this Monstrosity.
The NY Times SUCKS.
Murder by the Main Stream Media.
And if you complain, they really get angry!
I’d only agree with you if I knew there were a large number of men in my neighborhood with the resolve of those Korean store owners in Los Angeles. If I knew my neighbors were prepared to camp on their rooftops 24 X 7 with rifles and night scopes. (I choose to live in a neighborhood where I believe that to be the case.)
If anything happens to Wilson, they’re accessories to the crime.
We should post the address of the assclown who published his address, but say it is Wilson’s “real address”
Terrorist slimes
“Unreal.”
Seriously!
It took them this long to read the Wa PO article from August 15 !
Not just his home they are likely to kill and or burn down all in his neighborhood.
Some one should go to jail for attempting premeditated murder!
I know that in some places it is illegal to make a law officer’s address public because of very real fear of retaliation by those arrested by them.
New motto of the NYT, “If we can make it bleed it will lede.”
