"If he wants to drop by the house," Lieutenant Caldwell said, "the police officers would be more than happy to welcome him. We're all armed and trained."

Sounds like a threat.

It is a threat.

I'm a cop and I have been threatened by people that would curl your hair. I tell them if they want me, they can find me at work.

I also tell them if they screw with my family I will kill them. No questions asked.

Perhaps Mr. Internet Freedom should put that particular disclaimer on his website.

I wonder what would happen if he did the same with the identities of IRS and BATF agents.

I quit being a cop over 20 years ago. Prior to that the "free press" was sending people to take pictures of the personal car license plates of the cops, then contacting the DMV to find out the addresses of the cops and publishing them.

Close to 30 years ago an outlaw motorcycle gang offered $10,000 to anybody who would set off a bomb at my HOME. Trying to take me out would be one thing, but going after my family another thing. I moved my family out of state and commenced to abuse them of this notion. Took about 7-9 months (it was a long time ago) but when they found out what having absolute terror coming home to their homes they decided they'ed made a very very bad error and the offer was rescinded.

Every person male or female that puts on a badge and a gun realizes that they may come home with a "tag on their toe", but their families are NOT EVER part of the equation. So if your upset that the cops are explaining the facts of life to an individual anal orifice or a whole group of them too fricking BAD!!!!!

"Sounds like a threat. "

I posted the same thing on another thread about this article. I agree with you.
