In Case My House Were To Be Fire Bombed

Or some other very strange thing happens to me.

"But if you want to try to abuse one of my reporters with more insane accusations and batshit rantings, you're gonna have to deal with me first." --Brian Clarey

I saved the e-mail, I'm sure GPD can find it.

Good journalism does not put people's lives at risk. Eric Ginsburg's anarchist buddies and/or others have conveyed death threats to Greensboro City Councilwoman Marikay Abuzuaiter because of what was written about her in Yes! Weekly by Eric Ginsburg and now Eric and Brian haven't the balls to hold themselves accountable. Instead, Brian Clarey attempts to scare me.

I will be more than happy to forward the e-mails to anyone who asks.

Lets all calm down and not get upset. The people who started this mess is not Brian or eric but the City and GPD. The city should of been careful with what they released and GPD should be careful in what they write and operate.

I'm sorry Sal, but a mistake on the City's part does not make it okay for Brian and Eric to put people's lives at risk for at best, the hope of peddling more advertising or at worst driving Eric's anarchist agendas or anywhere in between.

Two wrongs do not make a right. Yes Weekly promised a retraction and didn't follow through. Think about it.

Billy's right here. Brian is trying to sell papers and doesn't give a crap about who gets hurt. He can hide behind all sorts or rationalizations. Eric is just pushing the same message the kings have for years: that the police are the bad guys and shouldn't surveil them. Except the truth and courts don't agree. He's a gang member or sympathizer posing as a reporter.

Billy, I would suggest you do a public records request asking for copies of all of Eric's public records requests from the past few years. Bet you find an interesting pattern.

Anon,
I already know more about Eric Ginsburg's activities than I want to tell. Fact is: I was a kid once and did a lot of the same crap Eric has done and got away with it. I was a motorcycle gang member. Then I grew up. I want Eric and others to have that same choice.

But Brian, Brian's job is to stop this BS from getting out of hand. He's posing as a newspaper Editor and if he can't understand it was his job to keep young reporters in check then he needs to find another line of work.
