According to a local news source, (Robbie) Leonard posted to Facebook, “I hope the FBI runs the name of every witness who is wearing a t-shirt that says ‘We Will Not Comply.’ They’re a bunch of terrorists in the making.” In another missive, Leonard posted photos from the hearing along with the message “Time to dox some homegrown terrorists.” For those unfamiliar with the term, “doxing” is an intimidation tactic whereby someone makes another person’s private or identifying information available to the public with the intent prompt a harassment campaign against them.

And not a peep of censure from anybody in Maryland but the usual suspects.
I believe that the reason Robbie Leonard’s info (including his PornHub username, password and favorites) is not published ou for all to see is that our side is still behaving politely and respecting the law and basic rules of behavior.
Then again, I cannot predict how long will it be till somebody says “Fuck it, let’s do this” and decides to play under the same rules. Next we will see Mr. Leonard complaining because he is getting nasty emails and ugly voice mails while demanding 24 hour police protection from Baltimore PD while waving the Victim card.
Public Records search is so easy….
They are conveniently forgetting that Rosa Parks became famous for “I will not comply”.
The other day I found out some information about the female that made a series of stupid twitter posts, linked to from this blog. I was going to write about it and decided it was to close to “doxing” because it mentioned her place of employment. It took me four tries to write something that I felt was safe.
(She had actually attacked somebody in person and given out all her details to the local newspaper. Pointing to that article was acceptable in my opinion)
Many years ago I use to attend the “Gun Day” hearings in Annapolis. The house hearings were a freaking biased joke. They combine all the public hearings on gun bills to happen in just one day. So on that day both sides come to testify.
I signed up to testify, at the time I owned no firearms, was not a member of the NRA and was just a citizen. My two friends with me signed up. A bunch of others signed up as well.
Then the hearing started. The chairman opens with this statement “We have a very busy day today. And I see that we have a lot of people that have signed up to testify. Unfortunately, we don’t have time to hear from every body that wishes to testify. Therefore we are going to only be hearing from groups. Each group will be allowed one witness to testify.”
So there were like 3 or 4 hundred people signed up to testify that day. Many many of them were pro gun rights people, like myself. In the end only ONE pro gun rights person was allowed to testify. Why? Because there was only one pro gun rights group there, the NRA. On the other side there was every gun grabbing group you can think of and some you hadn’t.
In addition, to add some insult to all of this “Because of the high risk, nobody will be allowed to enter the chamber armed. Everybody will be screened.” And there were metal detectors at the entrance.
Of course the dozens of cops, both in uniform and plain clothes were going in and out of the room flashing their guns in holsters to us surfs and their badges to the detector operators.
