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.

The fact that the original FB post was public is irrelevant. Unless you had personal knowledge and took the time to perv his FB page, you wouldn't have even known the post existed. But now his information has been given out to the www via this thread, so the potential for anything to happen, is possible. It only takes one angry, bat crap crazy person to flip out and cause harm to another. Has the tragedy in Florida taught us nothing about what mentally unstable people are capable of? 

To trivialize the doxing rule over this is bullshit. As I said earlier - if it happened to someone else here - there would have been an uproar.  I think we are only fooling ourselves if we think that calling attention to someone's personally identifiable information is an okay thing. It's not.
