Slashdot Mirror
City Sues To Prevent Linking To Its Website
Mike writes "In what appears to be a first-of-its-kind case, the Sheboygan city attorney ordered Jennifer Reisinger to remove a link to the city's police department from her Web site. The city went further, she claims, launching a criminal investigation of her for linking to the department on one of her sites, and in response she's suing the mayor and the city. 'The mayor decided to use his office to get back at Jennifer for her efforts in the recall and picked this to do it,' said her attorney, Paul Bucher. It appears this will go to court, and the question will be can a city (or any business or Web property) stop people from posting a link to its site?"
oh, this.
oh be quiet you lunatic ;-)
Maybe the city gets charged for extra bandwidth, and someone wants to slashdot their police department site as revenge?
It wouldn't be the first time someone used slashdot as a dos tool, IIRC
What are they trying to hide, the fact that they have an awful Web site?! Bonus lulz for the Homeland Security Advisory System widget. Lock up your daughters: the risk is at: "Elevated - Significant Risk of Terrrist Attack y'all"
Notice the hit counter down at the bottom of the page, it currently reads: 96,453. Let's see if we can make that sucker go up a little, before the server crashes.
Heh, they can't get me for bringing down their server either! What're they going to do, extradite me? Oh hang on ... I'm Briti

Go eat the earth flag.
Not the one made out of skin, of course.
Your ad here.
You know a organization knows what they're doing on the web when their landing page is titled NEW PAGE 1 and was made with FrontPage 5.0
Pancakes. Oh I blew it.
To root your windows box and look for child porn? I jest, it is probably because the tool used to create the flash banner was taught to the graphic designer in his six month course where he/she got a two-year degree in computer science. Way easier than all that markup and JavaScript - I mean, have you ever tried to figure out a heirarchical data structure?
Sheesh, drag 'n drop is way superior to thinking. Or having to work with one of those icky 'coders' who complains if you change your image dimensions halfway through the project.
Flash is awesome!
people please stop linking to the Shebogan Police Department.
It hurts their feelings.
"editor", eh?! You'll learn soon, grasshopper.
Fuck systemd. Fuck Redhat. Fuck Soylent, too. Wait, scratch the last one.
sounds like if Palin falters, McCain has his new running mate
If you are a real Latin grammar nazi, you should chisel the correction on your monitor.
You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war
Married people would differ with this.
And, obviously, another difference between war and marriage is, you can sleep with enemy...
hilarious
Where's the cop page? I was gonna link to it.
Need Mercedes parts ?

I'd have kept quiet about his role if I had this site to look after.
I want a list of atrocities done in your name - Recoil
The mission statement on the website says:
We, the men and women of the Sheboygan Police Department, value:
* Human Life
* Accountability
etc.
Do they *really* need to state they value human life? Is there an assumption that the norm is to not care who dies? What sort of crazy department is that?

For some reason, I though it was some weird pr0n site: She-Boy-gangpolice.com
What can I say, it's still early here. I'll wake up soon.
There are no loopholes. It's either legal or it's not.
That makes you a maverick, not a lunatic.
You and a hundred fifty million other people.
Okay, so that was a joke: there aren't a hundred fifty million people that vote in this country.
Those who advocate genocide deserve every protection afforded by law, and none afforded by common human decency.
The obvious question is whether you were relieved or disappointed when you realized your mistake.
It amazes me that so many allegedly "educated" people have fallen so quickly and so hard for a fraudulent fabrication of such laughable proportions. The very idea that a gigantic ball of rock happens to orbit our planet, showing itself in neat, four-week cycles -- with the same side facing us all the time -- is ludicrous. Furthermore, it is an insult to common sense and a damnable affront to intellectual honesty and integrity. That people actually believe it is evidence that the liberals have wrested the last vestiges of control of our public school system from decent, God-fearing Americans (as if any further evidence was needed! Daddy's Roommate? God Almighty!)
Documentaries such as Enemy of the State have accurately portrayed the elaborate, byzantine network of surveillance satellites that the liberals have sent into space to spy on law-abiding Americans. Equipped with technology developed by Handgun Control, Inc., these satellites have the ability to detect firearms from hundreds of kilometers up. That's right, neighbors .. the next time you're out in the backyard exercising your Second Amendment rights, the liberals will see it! These satellites are sensitive enough to tell the difference between a Colt .45 and a .38 Special! And when they detect you with a firearm, their computers cross-reference the address to figure out your name, and then an enormous database housed at Berkeley is updated with information about you.
Of course, this all works fine during the day, but what about at night? Even the liberals can't control the rotation of the Earth to prevent nightfall from setting in (only Joshua was able to ask for that particular favor!) That's where the "moon" comes in. Powered by nuclear reactors, the "moon" is nothing more than an enormous balloon, emitting trillions of candlepower of gun-revealing light. Piloted by key members of the liberal community, the "moon" is strategically moved across the country, pointing out those who dare to make use of their God-given rights at night!
Yes, I know this probably sounds paranoid and preposterous, but consider this. Despite what the revisionist historians tell you, there is no mention of the "moon" anywhere in literature or historical documents -- anywhere -- before 1950. That is when it was initially launched. When President Josef Kennedy, at the State of the Union address, proclaimed "We choose to go to the moon", he may as well have said "We choose to go to the weather balloon." The subsequent faking of a "moon" landing on national TV was the first step in a long history of the erosion of our constitutional rights by leftists in this country. No longer can we hide from our government when the sun goes down.
