Messages spread publicly about others can severely impact them.  Like that time the police were called to bust up drug dealing when the drug-free party was too loud.

If PR is sharing messages that could severely harm good hardworking people, it would be appropriate to stop this.

I am a peace-loving person and would not consent to pursuing that for some time without confirmation of necessity.  I have been targeted myself and know it can be far worse than stories of Hell.

In Nonviolent Communication, and norm is placed for violence: force is to be used only to protect people, never to harm out of vengeance.
