Don't worry everyone, I have just filed a complaint (above). I'm sure Twitter will suspend Spike Lee's account as soon as they receive it.

In all seriousness, you all might want to fill their inboxes with similar complaints.

Unless George Zimmerman files the complaint himself, I think you getting Spike Lee suspended isn't going to happen.

Maybe not me, but there is strength in numbers. I think the most important thing is making it, at the very least, an uncomfortable situation for Twitter. These 'untouchable' entities need to know they can't continue to get away with stuff without a fight.

Do you have a blog or something like that? Don't know if this gets enough momentum just from within the comment section. If you wrote a post on that I am quite certain it would go to the front page.

I don't have a blog. Thanks for the support though. Anyone and everyone who does have a blog is more than welcome to take my idea and run with it. The post in question (http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=4318034) is now licensed with the WTFPL (http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/).
