But just because someone is outed does not mean that they (or their family) should be assaulted, of course I don't want that to happen. Any assaults would be other stupid people making his same mistake and then they should be placed in the same spotlight. The potential "what if" is not going to change my position.
But outing him increases the chance that he will be assaulted. I can appreciate the sentiment, but I can't support the action.

Would you feel different if/when the victim filed charges and then his identity was made public? That's a routine occurrence for which I don't see much public assault fall out reported.
I don't recall Anne Sacoolas, or her family, being assaulted after an outing for killing a brit kid. Just saying.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
