The purported names and addresses of grand jurors who indicted Donald Trump were posted online by Trump supporters on a fringe website known for violent rhetoric. This prompted security concerns for the jurors and district attorney’s office. A research group found the jurors’ information being spread across other sites along with false claims about their political views. The indictment itself does not include such private details. After Trump referred to “riggers” online, supporters appeared to use that term in place of a racial slur in discussing the jurors. Both the sheriff’s office handling Trump’s surrender and the FBI declined to comment on grand jury security matters. The posting of jurors’ private information has led to death threats against them from some Trump supporters online.
Fully agree. They are people engaging in toxic and possibly criminal behaviour, and should face the consequences.
But not seeing ‘the other side’ as people will only further the extremely detrimental polarisation of society, with groups shifting apart like tectonic plates and making it extremely hard to find common ground again.
