A fringe website featured the purported names and addresses of the Fulton County grand jury that indicted Trump and 18 other people for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

      The identity of the jurors are public record in Georgia, so I doubt this will unless they can prove a conspiracy to harass or some such

        Did you read the article? Pretty clear it’s more than even harassment…

        “These jurors have signed their death warrant by falsely indicting President Trump," a post on a pro-Trump forum read in response to a post including the names of jurors, which was viewed by NBC News.

        Also, Grand Juries are secret, regular juries are not. That’s why these articles are all referring to them as the ‘purported’ jurors.

        If they did somehow actually get the jury members names and release them, that alone could (and should) be seen as a threat considering the secret nature.

          In Georgia, grand jury identities are public, not secret. It’s how things are done there.

          If harassment happens, actually happens, and they tie it to the doxxing and can prove intent or a conspiracy, then maybe we will see a prosecution.

                Is it a threat or an appeal to the rule of law?

    “The indictment issued Monday lists the names of the grand jury members but not their addresses or other personal information.”

    Maybe including their names isn’t such a great idea? Can’t they seal them so that only legal parties are aware? This precedent is jury tampering for all future cases

    Soon: Trump supporters who posted names and addresses of Georgia grand jurors online have names and addresses posted in arrest warrants.

    I hope. Hey “patriots”, maybe don’t try to interfere with the justice system when it’s acting in accordance with state/ federal laws and American principles.

      The problem is, not doing so is tantamount to treason to them. The election was stolen, this isn’t the USA anymore. This is some deep state globalist conspiracy. They’re so far gone that the only path forward is to threaten war and physical harm to others.

      Imagine. Some deep state conspiracy and the best person they could put in power was Joe fuckin Biden…lmao

          I’ll fight em. Despite being in WV, there aren’t too many confrontational people here. And I’m in arguably the most liberal part, so I’m decently insulated from the crazies. People always say “liberals don’t have guns”, but it’s more “liberals don’t cosplay with their guns when they go to the store”…

      They honestly never think it through. Every single one of their thoughts is literally one step ahead but then they never think about the next step.

      As a result they walk themselves to the end of a logical path and then find there’s a big cliff with fires and spikes at the bottom, and can’t figure out what to do about it and then get angry. Most normal people are capable of thinking through implications and work out what’s a bad idea ahead of time and then don’t do it.

      They will probably win one, too, because they have local police in most jurisdictions backing them. Someone needs to make a serious thread about the possibility; maybe I’ll do it.

    Serious question… How hard was it to find this information before it was posted as a resource? They released the names of the grand jurors in the indictment so I can imagine a quick Google search of the name would produce whatever information the user wanted.

        OSCE is almost guaranteed to be there, and the UN is not really the organisation to do it because it’s full of non-democracies – which isn’t that bad in itself but it’s also full of countries calling themselves democracies that would be inclined to fuck shit up.

        While OSCE doesn’t observe every election every member state has every time they definitely hone in on possibly controversial ones on top of the regular rotation.

        In 2012 the Texas Attorney General threatened to arrest the observers, btw.

        I get your point is to have a neutral 3rd party help oversee the elections, but having the UN do it would be one of the fastest ways to spark a civil war. A lot of Trump supporters very much believe the UN is one of the key players trying to bring the new world order.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    ATLANTA — The purported names and addresses of members of the grand jury that indicted Donald Trump and 18 of his co-defendants on state racketeering charges this week have been posted on a fringe website that often features violent rhetoric, NBC News has learned.

    Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis faced racist threats ahead of the return of the indictment and additional security measures were put in place, with some employees being allowed to work from home.

    The grand juror’s purported addresses were spotted by Advance Democracy, Inc., a non-partisan research group founded by Daniel J. Jones, a former FBI investigator and staffer for the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

    “It’s becoming all too commonplace to see everyday citizens performing necessary functions for our democracy being targeted with violent threats by Trump-supporting extremists," Jones said.

    Advance Democracy also noted that users were posting on other social media sites the names and images of people believed to have been grand jurors.

    — Advance Democracy noted that Trump supporters were “using the term ‘rigger’ in lieu of a racial slur” in posts online.

    Their names were on the indictment published in national news unfortunately, so this was a foregone conclusion. Idiot trump supporters likely also don’t know grand juries are supermajority vote, not unaimous.

    Those grand jurors almost certainly knew this would happen, and they voted to indict anyway. That kind of courage to defend the rule of law is the best of America.
