I just want to say one more thing really quick before everyone hop on the 'it keeps cops honest' bandwagon. Let's say you got into a fight with someone. Let's say you punched a guy for some reason. All of a sudden your family was being threatened for YOUR actions. Is that really fair? Post his name, sure. Just don't post his address and phone numbers, or the names of his family. Even if it is public information posting encourages violence. If you advocate non violence against protesters then advocate violence towards cops you are no better than the cops you profess to hate.

Why do you assume that in a place like Oakland, where the criminal element is prevalent and violence against the police is a regular occurrence, that the actions of Anon will not somehow lead to the injury of this officer or his family?
You're the one supporting Anon's decision to expose this cop to serious danger BEFORE the investigation has even netted any results.edit on 31-10-2011 by projectvxn because: (no reason given)
Stuff happens, and if they got the wrong guy or his family, friends or neighbors get hurt.... Anonymous...... Good intentions but flat out stupid.
those people protesting are in danger of gun slinging cops. even though some protests threw stuff at the cops, not all did. So do all protesters need to be maces and gassed. no.

You can lump the two as the same but hey let's get real here neither one is like the other.

No, this isn't good at all and should be rejected en masse. We can't be fighting for american rights while stomping on others. Every citizen has the right to a trial and is innocent until proven guilty. Now that officer and any officer that is violated in this manor...their families are in danger and NO ONE has the right to do that. All they had to do was give the information to Mayor Quan, if it is even accurate information...where ever that is sourced from needs to be slammed with messages and emails of intolerance.
