Give my Preacher cousin his 15 minutes of fame

Honestly?  I think the doxing rule here is too strict.  A public post made on a publicly viewable FB page shouldn't be considered doxing.  It's obviously not information the person wants to keep private.  If they did, they'd make their page/post only viewable to friends.  Or, better yet, not post something that could be considered inflammatory on the internet at all.  For my money, there's no legitimate expectation of privacy if you're writing stupid shit for the world to see.

Regarding the harassment aspect, I can see it, but I think it's well within a person's rights to take a community leader to task for promoting regressive, tone deaf rhetoric which tastelessly attempts to use the deaths of innocent kids as a way to drive up church recruitment numbers.  The guy said it, so he should own up to it.

That said, there's no way to limit damage if these images are spread.  The internet is global, and people will do stupid shit under the shield of anonymity.  Ideally, drfuzzy would/will tell this guy exactly what kind of asshole he is personally.

So, I see nothing wrong with tying the quote to the post to show that, yes, it's real.  I do think the potential of unintended consequences should stop it from being spread.

Just my $0.02.

Love ay, Kev.     I can see both sides. I don't know if I ever will be able to be able to tell my cousin - who does actually have a smart, caring, goofy and lovable side - that my take on the fundamentalist beliefs of that side of the family should be classified as mental illness.     To post that god is deliberately killing american children because we don't require all public schoolchildren to recite the Lord's Prayer anymore . . . 
Yeah, I know I'm going all Lil' Rik with the emojis.  I blame it on the flu medicine.
My cousin is also a Trump supporter, a gun nut, and a corporal punishment advocate.  He used to head up a group called WhippingsRUs.  It's not online.  This is the . . . culture that I am so grateful to have escaped from, regardless of the cost.  And yes, I still think that views like his need to go viral.  These groups either need to be dragged into the light of the 21st century or forced to live in their own off-grid camps a la Jonestown. The political clout they currently wield in the US of A is more than a little ulcer-making.  The Theocrats are trying to hijack the government.  The WORLD needs to see who they are and what they really think.

But.  I don't want gangs to burn down his house.  Church, maybe, but not house.    :roll eyes:

It's a federal crime to burn down a church.  Perps can get 20 years in a federal prison.  https://www.congress.gov/104/plaws/publ1...ubl155.pdf

You can do what you want but you might want to drop this subject and talk about something else, like snot.
