All I'm Going to Say About It...

Although we don't know the true whole story, it goes without saying that a person should not be allowed to stalk someone and then claim self-defense for killing that person if he doesn't take kindly to being stalked. But this is truly unconscionable:

A Florida couple said they had to leave their home after director Spike Lee and others retweeted a message that erroneously listed their address as belonging to George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer who claimed he killed teenager Trayvon Martin in self-defense last month.

[...]

Now the couple is living in a hotel room.

[...]

Lee, who has 250,000 Twitter followers, retweeted the address over the weekend, and it went viral.

[...]

The McClains have hired Orlando attorney John Morgan, who said they might have a civil claim against Lee. "Fortunately, this couple is not about that right now."

"What they want to do is get a retraction, get an apology so everybody knows that that's not the house," Morgan told Velez-Mitchell.

  

Spike Lee should be paying their hotel room and buying them a new house in a different neighborhood, but as of this report, there hasn't even been an apology.

The messages were still visible on Lee’s Twitter account Wednesday afternoon, five days after they first appeared. Lee — who has more than 240,000 followers — has since written and re-posted dozens of messages about Martin, but none that appear to retract or apologize for the address tweets.

UPDATE 3/29:

It's a start.

Is Spike Lee raising his voice on Twitter? He capitalizes every word, not every letter, which I understand is shouting.
