Couple things to note here.

This guy doesn’t agree because obviously he doesn’t understand the point Madrigal is making, otherwise he wouldn’t be posting this guy’s home address. (Somebody also posted the guy’s details in the comments of that piece. It seems to have been removed now.) And whether he gets it or not, posting this guy’s address online is absolutely not cool.


It’s sad to see Tumblr promoting this post in the Long Reads tag, the Politics tag, and the News tag. Tumblr’s obviously in the internet activism game, which is laudable, but are they also promoting internet vigilantism now? That’s incredibly irresponsible.

Come on guys, don’t be like that.

  10. mills said: “…do something reprehensible…open yourself up to retaliation”: the sentiment underlying most lawless applications of violence. Righteous rage feels sweet. Waterboard Pike! (Who ordered him to act? Why do Americans support such ‘policing’? Too hard!)
  11. onefootinthegrave said: fuck that. This pig deserves all the hate mail he’s gonna get, and then some.

  13. smartasshat said: Seems to me, if you do something reprehensible, you open yourself up to retaliation. Official action, if anything, will be along the lines of, “Rest assured, Lt. Pike has been spoken to in the HARSHEST of terms.”
