Only Cowards Hide their Face
I don't hide.
When I exposed an Irondequoit, NY Police Detective who posted racist comments about First Lady Michelle Obama, and Mexicans on social media, I didn't do it anonymously, I didn't hide my identity.
I owned it.
When I exposed a young Rochester, NY wannabe thug who punched an elderly woman on the side of her head as part of the "Smack Cam Knockout" internet fad, I didn't do it anonymously, I didn't hide.
I owned it.
When I exposed a trigger-happy Rochester, NY cop who executed a scared, innocent, lost family dog while its owner desperately looked for his best friend, I didn't do it anonymously, I didn't hide.
I owned it.
When I exposed a Rochester, NY Fire Department recruit who made an anti-Semitic video and posted it on social media, I didn't do it anonymously, I didn't hide.
I owned it.
When I exposed 7 Rochester, NY 911 operators sleeping on the job, a job where every second counts and where every second could mean the difference between life and death, I didn't do it anonymously, I didn't hide.
I owned it.
I never hide my face.
I never hide my name.
I don't cower.
My style is raw, at times over the top, and even shrill.
I've been described as "toxic" and "radioactive."
And I never have, nor will I ever apologize for it.
Love me or hate me.
Say what you want about me.
But one thing you'll never be able to say is that I hide.
I will walk right up to any cop, public, or elected official, and hold them accountable, with no fear.
I have called them a liar right to their face.
I have reminded cops how their Good Ol Boys Club law enforcement profession drove a good man, my father, to commit suicide.
I have stood right in front of the Rochester, NY Police Department, with a FUCK THE R.P.D. t-shirt and a huge megaphone and called them out.
I have crashed police, and mayoral press conferences.
(Just ask Rochester, NY Police Chief Michael
Ciminelli and Rochester, NY Mayor Lovely Warren).
And I have owned every bit of it.
It's called having COJONES.
For months, under the cover of night, a coward littered Brighton and Pittsford, NY neighborhoods with fliers promoting a white supremacist website.
Earlier this week, that coward was identified by police after they received a tip about his identity.
His name is Eric Stein.
Eric, I want to tell you something.
As a Latino, and the father of two African-American and Latino children, you disgust me.
But as an American who takes full of advantage of my First Amendment Right to free speech, I support your right to express yourself, no matter how sick and disturbing they may be.
Yes.
You read that correctly.
I support your First Amendment Right.
But Eric, you're a coward.
You're a bitch.
You see Eric, a real man doesn't hide.
Because a real man doesn't have to.
A real man standa for what he believes in.
Eric, a real man says what he means and means what he says.
And therefore, since a real man has no problem saying what he means and meaning what he says, he has no problem owning it.
I mean COMPLETELY OWNING IT.
That includes showing his face.
Not anonymously throwing out white supremacist flyers out of the window of your car, at night, like a coward.
Own it Eric.
Be a man.
Show your face.
Grow a pair.
And own it.
Only a coward hides his face.
