Excuse me? Any call?
The kid may have been out of line calling the home number (however it WAS listed). But this would have blown over if the wife hadn't overreacted.
Hey, if they’re public servants, shouldn’t the public be able to, well, contact them? Just wondering...
Same concept, different scale,
but...
no “public official” should be able to conceal his identity while performing an official act, especially law enforcement.
This includes covering of badge numbers, ninja masks, and demanding that recording devices be turned off.
Exceptions can be made for very special circumstances, such as undercover operations, but not for traffic stops, home raids, etc.
“If you’re doing nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear from my video camera, right, officer?”
“But this would have blown over if the wife hadn’t overreacted.”
Ok. Let’s go back.
This is ‘in the news’ because the MEDIA is the boat that is keeping this story afloat.
But.... blame the wife.
Or... we could blame the kid.
Or.... we could butt out of a personal phone call.
It would have blown over if the kid wasn’t such a brat and posted it on his myspace or facebook page.
I don’t see any evidence of her overreacting.
And yes, ANY call. He should have a pager, and office number or a cell phone.
Your home phone is exactly that.
