These self important little piss ant local town and county wanna be cops need reigned in. If ya can't cut it to be a real cop like a state trooper, just fill out an application and be a local cop then strut around with all the equipment belted on, including the gun and act like you are somebody.

You can plug this into arin.net’s whois database to figure out who’s responsible for that ip address. This is the result:

Server Central Network SCN-4 (NET-205-234-128-0-1)

It will be interesting when the tech is available for the average citizen to record their experiences, will be there be a site like ratemycop.com to upload the video? Will the government manage to quash them? There is so much hope for humanity, and so much despair. jac | March 15th, 2008 at 6:36 am

I despair of its ever working well, just because of the anonymity. Any doodah or malicious person can just make something up, and post it. Actual balls may be required to make it work, as in, "My True Name is so-and-so and Officer so-and-so did this bad (or good) act in my presence on such-and-such date." Maybe encrypted digital signatures would help, here? It came right up for me, a few minutes ago.

The updates to the domain name may not have propagated throughout the Internet yet, so some DNS servers are returning the old address still. That should change within a couple days at most.

I think it's funny that if I got stopped for DUI, before I was even found guilty my name and address would be in the paper for all to read, but God forbid you even mention a cop's name. That's why I'm no fan of cops. I view them in the same league as lawyers. A necessary evil. It appears to be gone now.
