            Why do you pretend that laws matter when the current government is showing every waking second that they do not? To the extent they've been called back by judges dozens and dozens of times, for breaking the law? Yet they keep breaking new laws?

                Not a single question mark to be seen in your comment, nor the one you replied to.

                I continued on the topic you brought up, "the law" and its relevance.

                  The comment you replied to, but didn't respond to (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47717422), refuted your attempt to reduce vigilante group actions as "telling people where the police are" and raised the violent incidents officers have encountered from vigilante groups.

                  You ignored both points and are apparently asking about the government interacting with judges.

                  Well, they're not all men and they are meting out plenty of violence, civil rights violations and lies in court that are getting cases thrown out left and right.

                  Lying about killing civilians, lying about being assaulted with a sandwich, lying about a college professor trying to move a gas canister away from someone in a wheelchair.

                  ICE should be abolished and they should all be barred from future public service.

                      They’re not vigilantes. But ICE is a paramilitary with no accountability.

            For someone who constantly whines about political advocacy on HN, you sure do engage in a lot of political advocacy on HN.

              Making the info of public employees public. Don’t want your info public, don’t become a a servant of the public.

              Besides US law clearly says their personal information isn’t theirs. We should be celebrating this person allowing public employees to hear the views of the public they serve.

                > Don’t want your info public, don’t become a a servant of the public.

                This would effectively mean people would only become public servants if they don't want their own and their family's lives endangered by lunatics.

                  Not at all. Most states have open records laws which would allow someone to request full names, salaries, and job titles of every government employee in the state. One might wonder why those people are not being targeted by "lunatics". Perhaps ICE is doing particularly disagreeable things?

                    Yeah, I’d like to be able to register to vote without doxxing myself. I’d like to have a little privacy protection to myself even when I’m out and about, but these sorts have decided I get neither.

                    Fuck these parasitic scum. They deserve as much privacy as they offer me.

                  Why is knowing the identities of the people who have power over you a problem? I pay their salaries.

                  Why is it a problem? They aren't doing anything they should be worried about the public knowing, right? Right?
