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.

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.

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.

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?

Militias aren’t targeting people at the unemployment office because they believe in unemployment. They don’t believe in border control though. That’s been a Democrat quasi-position since the Biden administration.
