Public service should equal no privacy.

That's lunacy.... A cop's home life and family are not the public's property or the public's business... His job performance is.

I am not going to hire someone to deal with the very worst of our society and then fail to protect them as best I can. They owe us good work, we owe them our support and protection, and loyalty.

I would tend to agree if the rules were the same all the way around, but they're not. OUR privacy is not protected from an entire slew of government officials including police. They make lists, watch our finincial transactions, credit card purchases, stop our cars at DUI roadblocks with dogs asking for papers, make us undress at airports, grope our women....and it's all legally sanctioned.

I guarantee that 99% of all cops will excuse or endore everything above. I've seen this mentality on this forum, it's a certain mindset that puts police in a special category who are entitled to take such liberties with our privacy.

I think this site is great, we're looking back at them. The internet makes the world small again, not much different than a small town say 100 years ago where your Sheriff was known by everyone.

Yeah right, and when the sucker blows away your puppy cause it is yapping, who do you go after, the people that's right cause he is protected.

The feed off the public teat like the pols, it should all be disclosed.

I want to know where oly snowe got her money, I want to know where dick daley was last night and why.

the disclosure that public rats have now are jokes, I mean I made over a million but under 10 last year, and no you can't see my off shore accounts.

An open society is a free society.

I went to the guy's website. It looks pretty bland to me. Mostly names of police officers by precint. Some precincts had salaries of the police officers. A few scattered addresses. He also had the email addresses of all the Seattle officers.

But the links on his sites go to the precincts websites, where the same information is available.
