Actually, unless your goal is to see him dead, there is no reason to publish Wilson’s home address.

I for one don’t want Wilson to be killed nor do I want to see anybody tried for his murder. Neither should anybody else.

TPM:

Conservative media outlets were outraged …

In other news, dog barks.

Edited To Add: Also, monkey flings shit.

Agreed, there is reason to be outraged at something like this.

If you’ve pissed off Breitbart, you must be doing something right.

Am I the only person who is sickened by the notion that Wilson is going to make a ship load of money from the media over the Brown shooting? Justified shooting or not, that just isn’t right.

Writing that he “strenuously objects to publishing the addresses of individuals who are being targeted with death threats,” Johnson retaliated by publishing what he says are the addresses of Julie Bosman and Campbell Robertson, who wrote the Times item on Wilson’s marriage.

Such as Planned Parenthood et.al. clinic employees?

So, what’s Darren Wilson’s street name?

How about “White Meat Chicken”?

TPM, from the second paragraph:

The story identified the town and the street where Wilson and Spradling own a home, but did not specify an exact address.

Edited To Add, from The New York Times:

A clerk at the marriage license desk said on Monday that she was surprised that Officer Wilson went there, as opposed to another county or state — possibly Las Vegas, she said — where he could have filled out paperwork with a greater guarantee of privacy.

Records show that Officer Wilson, 28, and Officer Spradling, 37, were married on Oct. 24. …

They have scarcely been seen there since Mr. Brown was killed on Aug. 9. Neighbors said that within a few days of the shooting, Officer Wilson and Officer Spradling abruptly left their home.

PS, the headline should read ‘street address’, I clicked thinking he had a nom de la rue like ‘Ziggy’, ‘Big Mac’ or ‘Chunky Flunky’…

That’s the way I first scanned it too.

Okay, then: What WOULD be a good street name for Darren Wilson?

I’ll give a vote to “White Meat Turkey!”

Funny, I thought his street name would be Ears or Cheeky or hound dog or Shooter, something like that.

How absolutely wonderful, they endangered EVERYONE on his block. If ANYTHING happens to even one resident of that street the writers and editors who okayed that article should arrested and the times fined and sued into the dirt as an accessory to whatever happens.

It was already public record. Read the Times story.

Anyone with a computer and browser who has an interest can find out for themselves.

Oh, I forgot – black people aren’t capable of doing that. But then again, they can’t read the New York Times either /snark

Methinks this “outrage” is just more bigotry. If Wilson thought himself immune from that inquiry before this publication, he was kidding himself. If anything, this put him on the alert he should have been on anyhow.

Let’s face it. Wilson is going to have to move in next door to his fellow unarmed black teenager killer, George Zimmerman, where they can revel in their spoils and celebrate their infamy together, secure in having each others’ backs.

I like chicken better – after all, he was sooooo skeeeered of the big black demon.
