Comedian Kathy Griffin has taken things too far a time or two. She's back at it. She called for the Covington Catholic High School boys in the MAGA hats to be doxxed.
More than 24 hours later the tweet remains.
Griffin tweeted, "Ps. The reply from the school was pathetic and impotent. Name these kids. I want NAMES. Shame them. If you think these fuckers wouldn’t dox you in a heartbeat, think again."

On Sunday she mad another desperate tweet begging for the names and people who can also identify them and vouch for their identity.
Names please. And stories from people who can identify them and vouch for their identity. Thank you.

Many people have called for Griffin to be reprimanded for her post:
Conservatives have been banned from @Twitter for much less! Attempting to dox minors is surely a violation of twitter policy? @jack? https://t.co/o50GrnOQiX

Kathy Griffin is attempting to dox MINORS. This is a violation of Twitter Terms of Service. Her actions could be putting these kids in real danger. Will @Jack do anything about it? I sent this directly to his staff. If a Republican did this they’d be banned in a heartbeat. https://t.co/gJC5pd5gZ6

Apparently promoting the doxxing of a high school student does not violate the terms of service of Twitter.
Even worse a young man was misidentified and his information was leaked despite him having nothing to do with the incident.
