re: #279 Absalom, Absalom, Obdicut
Well, I’m not sure what it is you want. Maybe someone at the company was an asshole who wanted to cause this dude whatever stress he could, but I could do that by phoning up an anonymous tip, too, I don’t have to be a company. Cops check shit out, it’s alarming but it’s a necessary thing. We’re never going to get to a place where cops never check out people who have done absolutely nothing wrong.
We can’t prevent corporations from giving info they have to the cops, and we can’t prevent cops from being interested in it. And we shouldn’t, either.
Sorry, I think six cops was excessive. And Mr. Catalano should have asked for a warrant. Although as I wrote earlier, that probably would have pissed off the cops. They tend not to like it when you bring up rights to them.
