    “Over the last two years, online activity has indicated a growing negative sentiment around conglomerates, the wealthy, and executive staff at private and public organizations,” the bulletin said. “Calls for targeting the executive team, their families, homes, and places of work using a variety of online and offline means to harass, disrupt, and harm the individuals and the organizations have become widespread.”

    I wonder why…

      Bitch please. That’s how unions got shit done. The boss made threats? Cops come to beat up and shoot at striking workers? Then the workers show up at the boss’ house and burn it down or beat the crap our of him. That’s how it used to be done.

      Sounds like what cops have been doing to the poor and minorities since there have been cops.

      Wait wait wait, I don’t think anyone should be targeting their families. Fuck the rest of 'em, though.

        Just out of curiosity, a quick look on the Forbes “Real-time Billionaires List” shows us an interesting suffix after several of those names: “& family”. It’s an ampersand (meant to be the conjunction “and”) followed by the word “family”.
