What if someone went in the cop's house and killed off his family to 'set an example'?

The article states that all the information that this woman posted was freely available elsewhere. Anyone who would seek to harm the cops could just as easily have used the same sources this woman did to find them.

She did not put it out there. It was already out there. It was public domain. What about that are you not grasping?

That is like the police department arresting you because you gave out their station's street address.

No it's not. She had a warning, plus she gave out more than just the police department's address.
Sorry, I just can't get upset about this one, there are better cases of police brutality, state oppression or police state symptoms to get upset about.

Not true. She took recent pictures of the cops and posted them online. How could those pictures already be freely available elsewhere?

From the article: Ms. Strom is not the most sympathetic symbol of free-speech rights. She has previously advocated creating a separate, all-white nation

Poor woman....

It's not a crime to take photos of cops in public areas in the US yet, nor is it a crime to post them on the internet. That's only in the UK for the moment. Furthermore, I wasn't implying the photos came from a source besides her, only the information she posted.
