Comedian Roseanne Barr has more than 110,000 followers on Twitter. She recently decided to tweet the address of the parents of George Zimmerman. The tweet has since then been deleted but Barr is now facing a real backlash. Barr said that the reason she tweeted the address was because she wanted to show people that “no one can hide anymore.” MSNBC reports:

Apparently Roseanne Barr didn’t learn anything from the Twitter misadventures of Spike Lee.

Lee apologized on Wednesday evening and offered to compensate an elderly Florida couple who had to flee their home after he tweeted their address on March 23, claiming it was that of the parents of George Zimmerman, the man who killed teenager Trayvon Martin.

But according to the Smoking Gun, on Wednesday, Barr tweeted the correct address for Zimmerman’s parents, then deleted the tweet, then threatened to tweet it again.
