A possible approach to the latest Recall Witch Hunt

Analysis: 29 state judges signed recall petitions
http://www.leadertelegram.com/news/daily_updates/article_f50c168c-717f-11e1-bc2b-0019bb2963f4.html

This article was front page of the Sunday Eau Claire Leader Telegram. It's sourced from a Gannett paper, so I presume it has appeared in many papers across the state.

I've seen many on FB who are friends or on groups say they are cancelling their subscriptions over this. I cancelled mine long ago.

But one of them had another thought that I like very much.

Perhaps we ought to help out those entities who want to witch hunt the recall signers. Every time this crap happens, let's call/e-mail/snail mail the "hunters" and give them our name and address - just to make sure they have all the information correct. Since that Teanderthal organization hasn't done a very good job with their dumbass website.

If a million petition signers started bombarding these tools with calls and e-mails every time they pulled this crap, they might stop.

I sent an email already and hope many others do. It was also reported on the local TV stations.

harassment, stalking, possible threats via electronic device. Any number of possible charges come to mind.

I say report each and every one of them.
