Hopefully some of you have watched my bear hunting video from this year on YouTube. I'm used to seeing anti-hunting posts show up under the comments and I usually just go and delete the comments.
Check out the comment that Paul Szigety posted on my video last night. I couldn't believe seeing something like this and I haven't removed this one yet. Obviously this is a threat against me. What I'm wondering is if any of you know if this is reportable to the cops? I would assume a threat like this is illegal and his account is linked directly to his Google+ account which tells where he lives (WA DC of all places), as well as his email address etc.

I pack a fully loaded smith & wesson 686P whenever I hike ... If we ever cross paths (Ive hiked to the summit of Mt. Baker and plan on doing it again at some point in my life) and I see you taking shots at animals .... in season or not .... my targets on you for sure ... I don't miss either ...
Shane's Mt. Baker Wilderness (WA State) Black Bear - October 2012 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYojm1fuFIo#ws)
What do you guys think? What's the best way to respond?
-
Turn him in to the cops for internet threats
-
turn it over to the cops
-
If you can figure out what police agency he lives in I would contact them and your local agency.
-
lol ya turn him in like my idea better though.
-
Turn him in!!!!!
-
:yeah:
-
goes to show us who were dealing with the anti gunners want us dead too.
Internet tough guy and all that Ive heard of antis killing hunters so be carefull out there.
-
Call the fbi, that is a direct threat, no beating around the bush there.

No doubt!

Not that I don't want to turn him in. I just don't know who to turn him in to. Do I call the Lynden PD? The FBI? How do you even get in touch with the FBI?
On a side note - according to his Google+ account he works for Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation which is a government organization. I may even be able to get him to lose his job for this one. :)

Turn him in. Call Northwest sportsmen or maybe one of the news outfits. You never know it may get into the news that the enviro wackos are threatening to shoot legal hunters.
Call your local sheriff and see what they say.
-
Start with an FBI agent in WA, there's an office in Seattle.
-
Scary. Do you know anyone in law enforcement that could help you?

Want to hear how this one turns out.

call them all!

That is scary. If he is serious about his threat, I'd assume he would be willing to shoot any hunter he happens to come across. FBI definitely needs to pay him a visit.

google fbi they have a division that deals with internet threats if I remember right because I used it related to a dog forum where we were getting threatened with death by alf and elf types
-
I would start with a report with your local police department. I'm guessing you aren't exactly shivering at your boots after this threat, but I wouldn't act like its a joke or the local PD isn't likely to take the process seriously.
Also, I don't know if people can delete their comments on Youtube or not, but you might start with doing a Print Screen or something and saving the evidence if that will be necessary.

I get a lot of threats with my videos, I got one that sounded more serious and contacted the FBI in spokane, they were quite helpful. Sounds like there is an FBI office in Seattle.

I'd be throwing this out all over the place!

Take the wise advise of turning this guy in, Shane. For yourself and every other hunter out there.
-
Get threats on here all tha time :dunno:
Maybe I should turn them in for internet threats :tup:
-
Turn his rear in!!
-
this is a perfect example of the type of person who should NOT be allowed to own a firearm of any sort for any purpose. seems just about as mentally balanced as the kids who shoot up schools

Have you had death threats?
This is a serious post. Please keep your comments on topic.

If you are getting actual threats on the forum please advise us, we will put a stop to that.

If you're at all serious with your comment, then yes by all means you should. threats of any form need more people to be aware o f especially threats from the internet.
-
I agree, that is a serious threat. Turn him in. Sheriff is what I always thought, especially since he is in WA.
-
yes, he's a wacko and the FBI should be made aware.
-
Tit for tat......run him up the flagpole.....domestic terrorism.
-
This is definitely the type of person who goes nuts and takes out a bunch of people, Shane. It's your duty to nip it in the bud.
-
According to his profile, he works for these people:
http://www.pbgc.gov/ (http://www.pbgc.gov/)
Wonder if the federal gov't would be interested to know that one of their employees is making death threats towards other people?
-
Tag. And I don't mean that as a threat, I just want to see where this goes...
-
Seems kinda dumb anti hunting an packs a pistol
-
Turn him in, but when you do make sure you know who you are talking to. If you turn him into a D.C. cop, might be an anti-hunter too and nothing will come of it. Just saying, do your homework.
-
Wow, def report this guy, to all the agencies you can. I'm tagging along to see what happens. Keep us updated.
-
@ Paul_szigety is his twitter handle for anyone who would like to drop him a line ;)

-
turn the pos in, and keep us posted, what a dbag.
-
Report it!! Good Luck
-
report it. tagging to follow
-
You know looking at this guy a bit, it almost looks like someone may have hacked his account... I mean it might be that he is the dumbest guy on earth using his real name, his photo to threaten someone like that. I kind of wonder if it is legit though. He might not even know that this was posted under his name. But that doesn't make the threat any less real.
That being said, I would report it to your local LE department and the FBI. Take a screen shot of it, in the event that he decides to delete it. This needs to be reported in case you are put into a situation with this guy and something happens so it is documented. That way you have a trail. When you report it, if it is substantiated I would also take the report and go to your local superior court and file for an order of protection. That will protect you as well in the event that you have a run in, and if something does happen you can show that you took the steps needed with the legal system to protect yourself.
I would also make sure that you take a screen grab of his picture for yourself so you can keep an eye on your surroundings to make sure that he isn't around you. While I wouldn't be paranoid about it, I would defiantly commit his face to memory. If you don't carry already I would start, you just never know with some of these environmental whacko's.
-
Don;t take threats lightley when someone says a gun is involved you never know who your dealing with so be safe.
-
Invite him to join you on a hunt. :dunno:
-
Turn him in to the cops for internet threats

hes all over the net one search and all you see is this schmucks pic :o
-
I would start with local Lynden PD, They'll have a contact at the FBI to work with. Also, contact YouTube and get them to aquire the IP address of the threat/post asap before router logs are over written or cache is dumped. They may not be able to give you the information without a court order or contact from the police, but initiating the data request now is in your best interest. Even if it is not the owner of the account that made the post, whoever posted the threat can be given a stern warning not to do so in the future. It could just be some kid/hacker. Stepping out on a limb, Where this guy lives, it would be a stretch for a person of his career/accomplishments/travels to even own a 629.

hope they nail him, i posted this in case its deleted before you report it

If someone didn't hack his account then this guy is a true idiot.

Definite possibility. Sure does not appear to be the type but who knows.

After going and reading his other posts on other videos I am convinced this guy made the threat himself. Right after he commented on Shane's video he commented on another Mt Baker video and it is mainly talking about him visiting Mt. Baker.
-
From all appearances he was doing a You Tube search for Mt Baker and ran across shane's video
-
Then he really is asking for it.
-
He commented about Mt. Baker on this thread too...in a non-chalant manner... so I don't think a hacker would be much of a defense for him

Turn him in before this idiot hurts someone
-
You serious ...Amazing how people can get away with their figure of speech ...this should be instant jail time for that whack --- ! Telling someone your packing a pistol when they are most likely packing a rifle takes b---s too ! Tell him lets go play hiding go seek on Mt.Baker :yeah: TURN HIM IN SHANE !
-
And he is a federal employee.
It is kind of strange that he hates how we shoot and kill animals, but his paycheck comes from an institution which Tomahawks and JDAMS buildings, killing all kinds of PEOPLE as well as animals...
-
turn it over to the cops
:yeah: DITTO THAT ....
-
That's felony harassment, just ask the kid in Sedro Woolley about that who posted on Facebook threating local schools. He is still in jail awaiting trial!
-
If I were you I would be very fearful of your life. I would engage the cops for a good paper trail.

I have contacted Lynden PD and submitted an online request to the Seattle FBI office. If the Lynden PD route doesn't go anywhere I will keep pursuing different options including calling Seattle FBI office and contacting HR Department at his place of work and letting them know that someone with a Google+ account linked to their business is threatening to shoot people. It'll be interesting to see how this turns out.
I would love to see if/when a federal agent or police officer comes to visit him at work about his threat to shoot someone. :)

Your doing the right thing shane. Everyone always talks about spotting the "red flags" of violence. If this is not a "red flag" I don't know what would be considered.
Your not just doing this for yourself but for everyone else as well. Thank you.

Be careful how much you dog this guy. Sun Tsu said to give your enemy an escape route because when someone is fighting on desperate ground and there is no hope, they're much more dangerous.
If this guy is a whack job, he may have other things to come at you with. I've dealt with this recently. I'm not suggesting you don't do anything, but I am suggesting you make a measured and appropriate response. I would encourage other participants in this thread not to get involved by contacting his employer or him personally.
-
Nothing to add, just want to see how this turns out...

Not to thread jack, but anyone who thinks this isn't serious should read this. If I recall correctly, the first victim walker/jogger was wearing orange for safety while exercising on the road, and Dillon thought they were a sportsman. He was also suspected in at least 5 other hunting "accident" shootings.
Thomas Lee Dillon (July 9, 1950[1][2] – October 21, 2011) was a serial killer who shot and killed five men in southeastern Ohio, beginning April 1, 1989 and continuing until April 1992.[3]
Dillon was born in Canton, Ohio. He was captured in 1992 when a friend recognized a behavioral profile compiled by the FBI. Dillon was incarcerated at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility for five consecutive sentences of thirty years to life for aggravated murder.[1] In 1998, his crimes were featured in an episode ("Human Prey") of the Discovery Channel's The FBI Files.
Dillon’s shooting victims were:[4]
Donald Welling, 35, of Strasburg, Ohio on April 1, 1989, while walking or jogging on Tuscarawas County Road 94.
Jamie Paxton, 21, of Bannock, Ohio while deer hunting Nov. 10, 1990, in Belmont County.
Kevin Loring, 30, of Duxbury, Mass., on Nov. 28, 1990, while deer hunting in Muskingum County.
Claude Hawkins, 48, of Mansfield, Ohio on March 14, 1992, while fishing at Wills Creek in Coshocton County.
Gary Bradley, 44, of Williamstown, W.Va, on April 5, 1992, while fishing near Caldwell in Noble County.

yeah its time to make an example of this idiot .... :yeah: :tup:

I wish we could get this on local news. "Federal employee threatens hunter" would make a great headline. Try to "get Jesse" on this guy.
On second thought this might not look good considering our war on firearms right now... So I don't know. Definitely don't let him get away with it though

I've actually thought the same thing... hmm.. this might be newsworthy. At the same time as a Pro 2nd Amendment guy this sort of shoots us in the foot as far as gun rights goes. Not saying a guy like this deserves to have a gun, but any news on guns right now is construed as anti-gun.
-
They're more likely to focus on a gruesome image of a bear you shot than a whack job threatening a hunter, who after all sort of deserves it, right?

this dirt bag lives in Washington DC maybe get a hold of the white house and talk to Obama .. Need more help let me know !

Got a call back from the local police officer. He said it didn't constitute a felony threat and there really wasn't a lot he could do about it. I asked him about calling the FBI and he said I could but they probably wouldn't do much about it either. I called the FBI but the Duty Officer did not answer so I left a message. Like I said earlier, I also submitted an online FBI request but haven't heard anything from that either.
From here I'm not really sure where else I can go. If I don't hear back from FBI at all, I may take the route of at least calling his HR Department, see if I can at least help him lose his job...
Any other advice from you guys?
-
you should ask what does make it a felony threat...
-
Maybe WDFW if it there is an anti hunter harassment law? :dunno:
-
Get threats on here all tha time :dunno:
Maybe I should turn them in for internet threats :tup:
Have you had death threats?
This is a serious post. Please keep your comments on topic.
I am serious
I'm not sure why you would make light of a death threat, or wonder if they should be turned in; report them to law enforcement and forum management.
-
I think since you have attempted at having LE look into it I would work on having YouTube impose ban/restrictions and do what else you can to bring his threats to light. Regarding his employer....I don't know enough about the law to encourage or discourage....wouldn't want you to get in trouble for harassment. By the way...this thread gave me good reason to go back and watch some vids. Good stuff and keep your head on a swivel.
-
I also think this is a great example WHY you should keep as much info private as possible. Being easy to find is a double edge sword, and making yourself a target means you need to keep that in mind... BTW just about anyone who speaks out is making themselves a target.
-
i would absolutely contact his employer. try everything you can to shaft this guy
-
off topic her but T.I you love to start crap dont ya, every thread you get on you turn it into your own personal crap, how about you just leave things alone sometimes...... sorry fellas got off topic :tup:
-
I talked with the Duty officer at the Seattle FBI office. He just referred me to the Internet Crimes website to submit a report. After submitting the report he the IC3 website simply said this:
The IC3 receives thousands of complaints each month and does not have the resources to respond to inquiries regarding the status of complaints. It is the IC3's intention to review all complaints and refer them to law enforcement and regulatory agencies having jurisdiction. Ultimately, investigation and prosecution are at the discretion of the receiving agencies.
Doesn't give me a lot of faith in anything coming out of that. When I mentioned to the FBI officer that he was a federal employee he immediately asked if I had contacted his employer. I didn't push him at all as to whether or not I should but he seemed to think that was a natural course of action. I think I'm leaning that direction at least.
-
if law enforcement does nothing, then i guess internet death threats are legal. we can flood him with some? :dunno:
-
Well, that is understandable regarding the volumne of complaints and the ability to get into each and every one of them. I can't believe I missed the part regarding the fact he is employed by the Gov......carefull......this could be an unstable individual. You just never know. Like I said....keep your head about you and thanks for the updates.
Andy no...I would not flood anyone with the same.......sure you are kidding but somebody may think that is a good idea.
-
definatly doesnt give you alot of faith at all does it, just goes to show what people can do without it raising any flags
-
Maybe WDFW if it there is an anti hunter harassment law? :dunno:
I would look into this too. But mostly would hope that there is a record of you contacting various agencies for assistance.

PETA Encouraging People to Violate Hunter Harassment Laws
http://outdoorchanneloutfitters.com/blog.aspx?id=6579 (http://outdoorchanneloutfitters.com/blog.aspx?id=6579)
There was no denying that PETA opposes hunting. Now the animal rights group also is on record urging people to violate laws-make that hunter harassment laws.
In an October 9, 2012 blog posting, PETA urges its minions to: "Help counter the cruelty of hunting in your area: Post "No Hunting" signs on your land and that of sympathetic neighbors and friends, join or form a local anti-hunting group, protest organized hunts, and spread deer repellent or human hair (from barber shops) near hunting areas. Also, before supporting any wildlife or conservation group, make sure that it opposes hunting."
Fortunately for hunters, these tactics constitute hunter harassment, a practice that is illegal in all fifty states and also on federal land. The U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance (USSA) championed the enactment of these laws during the 1980's and 1990's in response to a campaign entitled "Hints for Hunt Saboteurs" by the anti-hunting organization, Friends of Animals. The Sportsmen's Alliance also helped defend state hunter harassment laws in both Iowa and New Jersey courts when challenged by the anti-hunting lobby. The result has been protection for American sportsmen and women from the exact sort of thing being promoted by PETA.
"It may be hunter harassment in itself for PETA to be encouraging others to break the law," observed USSA president and CEO, Bud Pidgeon. "If indeed there are foolish people out there who follow the PETA directive to harass hunters, I would not be surprised to see the authors of this article charged as well as the perpetrators."
Hunters encountering protestors, deer repellents broadcast or other items placed in their hunting areas to keep deer away should immediately contact their local Conservation Officer (game warden) or local sheriff's department and report the violation. When possible, take photographs of protestors, their vehicles, and their activities.

Looks like the person in question finally removed his comment from my YouTube video. Maybe he finally thought things through.
-
next time call the local PD for his area not here :dunno:
-
Yep.....it was there around 11:30 or so when I was having a little lunch (low carb, lean chicken, raw vegetable for those in the weight loss program). At least you still have the screen capture that I think Kracker or one of the others posted up.
-
Nothing they can do? You can bet your ass that if that POS in the whitehouse had this said to him they sure as hell would be doing something. I'd be contacting Fox News, if any news organization would run it it would be them.

If you are seriously concerned :
Print out the threat before he removes it
Go down in person, not contact by phone, to your nearest PD. Bring a printed out copy of the threat, his profile and tell them that you think you have the guy's ID. Make sure you tell them you are in fear for your life and in light of the recent shootings by mentally deranged people, you demand a report be taken for your safety. If they refuse ask to see one of the SGT's at the PD. Be persistent
Get a copy of the report and send to his employer :
Office of the Chief Counsel
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
1200 K Street, N.W.
Washington, DC 20005-4026
Send copy of his threat, his profile and police report certified mail and notify them that they have an unstable violent employee who has a firearm and is threatening you and that he appears to want to take a "fully loaded" handgun from DC across the US crossing state lines to the state of Washington and shoot you. I wonder if his fully loaded firearm is registered per DC firearms laws?
And I would contact the Fed Protective Service responsible for security at Fed buildings where this mentally unstable nut job works. Let them know he has a fully loaded firearm and is threatening to use it.
Tell them you filed a police report, id'd the guy from his web profile and tell them you are in fear for your life. Tell them you can provide a copy of the police report. Ask for the name of the person taking the report and demand a follow up call when they interview this guy
http://www.dhs.gov/report-incidents (http://www.dhs.gov/report-incidents)
Number appears to be : 1 877 437 7411
Just a suggestion
Got a call back from the local police officer. He said it didn't constitute a felony threat and there really wasn't a lot he could do about it. I asked him about calling the FBI and he said I could but they probably wouldn't do much about it either. I called the FBI but the Duty Officer did not answer so I left a message. Like I said earlier, I also submitted an online FBI request but haven't heard anything from that either.
From here I'm not really sure where else I can go. If I don't hear back from FBI at all, I may take the route of at least calling his HR Department, see if I can at least help him lose his job...
Any other advice from you guys?
-
he just removed it ... gone.. id email the attachment to his superiors

I also saved a screen shot for ya. Just in case.

(1) A person is guilty of harassment if:
(a) Without lawful authority, the person knowingly threatens:
(i) To cause bodily injury immediately or in the future to the person threatened or to any other person; or
...
(b) The person by words or conduct places the person threatened in reasonable fear that the threat will be carried out. "Words or conduct" includes, in addition to any other form of communication or conduct, the sending of an electronic communication.
-
WOW ...When you get a chance Shane check out this guy who posted on your site ...Albiesr3 ...This guy may have issues ... click on his name and you can see what he is into ...Example: Call Of Duty and much more ...
-
Make sure you keep every piece of evidence you can. Take the cops names and badge numbers when you talk to them and keep track. Make sure your documentation is very detailed with date, time, how you contacted them, etc. Write down details of each conversation. Let everyone know up front that you are keeping this information and if anything comes of this.....and they did not follow through with there jobs that they are now just as liable.
This is absurd.... :yike:
After all this takes place you may also want to e-mail this guy (make a new e-mail account) and just see if it was really him. In this process you can mention that you have contacted all law enforcement agencies and make sure he thinks they will be investigating it. Be detailed and post the names of the agencies and who you talked to (adds credibility). Tell him that this threat is being taken very seriously and that he "may have committed an act of domestic terrorism." make sure you use the terminology "may have committed." This keeps from pointing fingers. If nothing else comes of it he will live in fear for a few years that he is being investigated for a felony.
After / or if he responds then make the decision to send it to his employers (same e-mail). Let the know who they have working for them. I guarantee this will lead to some type of internal investigation....which will make him crap his pants thinking he is going to loose his job. If all goes well he will be flipping burgers soon.
Though I don't believe you really have anything to worry about. I will say that this kind of stuff needs to stop. I would make an example of him for sure.

That's some great wilderness your in, the envy is building. My knee would never allow me to go out there my self.
What kind of bird was that you spooked on the hillside?

This other guy is asking where is MT.Baker and where are THE BEST ACCESS PLACES ...People should never answer questions like this over the internet ...that goes for everyone unless you have personally met the person or know them ..This is something to seriously think about even on HW . We all talk to each other like we know each other but most of us have no clue who is who !!! :twocents: :dunno:
-
Wow that was something. Shane keep your chin up I loved your video. As a matter of fact it got me to sign in an account and subscribe to your videos. The tool is probably blowing smoke, just hike with one in the chamber and your finger on the safety. Its a shame you can't get any response from the government, but that doesn't surprise me.
Sorry for my :twocents: but you're getting it anyway.
I had a client come into my garage when I was gone and take an unfinished deer mount off the wall.
I got home, was told what he did and immediately called him. I told him I would be right up after work to get it back. We argued about how long it was taking to get done. A few minuets later I got a call from the local Sherifs dept. saying they had me on felony harassment. I don't know how they don't have this guy in jail.
And they wonder why gun sales are through the roof :chuckle:

However, you are ignoring the fact that while this threat is made specifically to Shane... it would appear this guy is a threat to any hunter that may cross his path... of course he is probably just an internet tough guy.. but it is still something that should be addressed and not near the joke or embarrassment you say it is... It only takes a simple logical deduction to realize that this threat is geared towards people hunting animals in general. That being the case this guys should definitely receive a visit from law enforcement and lose his government job. :twocents:

He is NOT going to hear from law enforcement. He didn't even say he was going to shoot Shane...I would say this "threat" is pretty tame compared to some of the ant nut bags on the net

Well at least shane filled 10 pages in 2 days :chuckle:
-
I just read all the 10 pages posted so far. Several observations:
1) Internet threats must be a PITA for LEOs. They can range from just plain stupid, to malicious, to deadly serious. The only way to really determine the seriousness takes a lot of investigation. That said, this still should not be taken lightly. There could be a variety of reasons why your requests for help seem to fall on deaf ears. I won't even try to speculate on those reasons. I believe it would be in your interest to continue to be persistent.
2) You've been getting lots of advice from this forum. I have heard no one suggest contacting an attorney. That would probably be a better source of legal opinion. I'd look for someone who is familiar with harassment violations and, better yet, someone familiar with interstate harassment and firearms violations.
3) This perp claims to have a gun but says he lives (or at least tracks to) D.C. Isn't even the possession of a gun in D.C. illegal? Yet another reason to contact an attorney.
This could be anything from a bored kid hacking away in his parent's basement to someone who is seriously disturbed and willing and able to act out on threats. We have plenty of recent experience in the news with the latter. Take this seriously and get some legal help to plan your next move. Good luck.

I would call his work and report it to one of his superiors. It is not as hard as you may think to get in touch with the right people.
Here is my example-I purchased a plasma screen at Best Buy, when they first hit the market ($7500 TV then). It blew up after 5 months and I tried to return it with the receipt etc. They tried to deny the return, because I did not buy a service plan. The worker and I got into it, and he threatened he was going to kill me. I reported it to management 5 times and got blown off, as if it was no big deal. I went on the Best Buy corporate website and got the name of the Best Buy CEO. I then went to PeopleSearch.com and paid $19.95 for his address and phone number. I found out he lived in Minnesota. I called him at his house and told him my recent experience at his Puyallup, Wa store. The next day he flew out the Head of Customer Service for the Americas. A guy by the name of Michael Linton. I was asked to show up at the store at 3pm. I was greeted with $1000 gift card, 3 seperate letters of apology from the various managers, who blew me off, and I was told to pick out any TV I wanted "free of charge". I picked out a 47" Pioneer Plasma ($11,000 bucks at the time). Plus they issued me my $7500 back for my original TV, which blew up. Not to mention 3 people lost their jobs, including Mr. Death Threat.
The point is; you would be suprised how much personal information is out there on the internet, and how easy it is to get in contact with the right people. Who would of thought I could get on the internet and be having a conversation with the CEO of Best Buy for $20 bucks? I sure didn't! I don't see why you cannot do the same in regards, to the government employee, whom sent you a death threat. I wish you luck tracking down his superiors...
-
What a maniac! I can't believe how bloodthirsty anti-hunters are! Lol.. Makes no sense! I'm not sure what the heck I would do. Probably should start turning these people in for making death threats though. It's getting out of control.
-
Spokeo.com will tell you EVERYTHING about this guy; address, phone #'s, loan info, property taxes, etc.
I encourage everyone to delete their info from this site anytime you move, make a major purchase.
-
If his posted threat has been removed then I expect that he and/or someone else has been advised of the threat. That is a good thing. With every armed whacko against innocent crime we always hear the question "Were there any signs or red flags?" And with the violence we've seen over the past few months it refreshes our need to be diligent in reporting those signs even if we feel the threats to ourselves or others is not immediately evident. 99+% of the time it may be needless and lead to nothing at all. But I would hate to be sitting on that information while reading of this guy going into a hunting expo and killing innocent people. That would haunt me for some time thinking I could have done at least something but did not.
Shane, you may feel as though you hit brick walls and no agency is taking this serious. However I would find comfort in the fact you acted not only in concern for yourself but out of concern for others. Again the simple fact his threat is no longer posted makes me believe your actions have been noticed. I'd bet that if this guy tries to purchase a large capacity weapon in the future his application may be looked at differently today than a few weeks ago. Good work :tup:

Holy Crap, I just looked myself up online. My addresses are showing up, with just the house number blocked. *censored*! How do you delete your info that shows up?
-
You have to put in a seperate request for each seperate ULR or something, but that doesn't remove the original info. The site just gathers it from other sites, you would have to track down each bit of it where originally posted and delete it at the source. To me it sounded like you can delete it, but if the source isn't removed, it will just get regathered later.

Have you been informed as to if any charges were brought up against him?
