    Can we do the same thing, only on a website?

    I’m not in America, I could host.

    It’s time these NKVD goons understood their own evil.

      I love this idea, but be aware that it is quite the dangerous one, even if you’re outside the US.

    I mean, did they break any laws? As a government employee of any kind, you’re technically public property.

    Is it against the law to post the address of a park, or police headquarters?

      What the fuck do you mean government employees are public property? Government employees are people working for an employer, just like everyone else, and deserve not to have their job follow them home unless they’re breaking the law.

      Go after the agencies and the political appointees, not the hired help!

      And, yes, this is likely illegal to publish the employee’s addresses in this way since the goal is to threaten or harass them. Publish their workplace info, not their home addresses.

      I do want to say that ICE needs to be stopped. They ARE breaking laws. They SHOULD be held accountable. I’m just taking offense at the idea that government employees are public property and can be treated as such.
