Scott Walker Recall signers are being targeted through Iverifytherecall.com

[Homer12]

Iverifytherecall.com is being used to target individuals for political retribution and intimidation.

The question is not that it is public information, but how that information is used.

The website uses signature identification software, you can put in a person's name or scan a zip code. Not only does it reveal your name or names of your family, it will also give out your address.





Today 3/29/12 between 3:00 and 3:30pm
School board again:

"Sussex School Board Member Spelled Name Wrong Last Year AND This Year On Separate Recall Petitions!!

Belling was more or less advertising that you could get a persons address and then target them. He said that it was a more or less a guidebook to find liberals in Wisconsin and go after them for signing the recall.


Judges are being targeted:

The types of retribution could be mild which happened to me by an aggressive poster on my blog, they mentioned my wife's name and what city we live in in a clear attempt at intimidation, to the Witch-hunts against public officials and journalists, people getting fired from their jobs, to what I fear next is they will be attacking the homes and property of recall signers.

4. I do not know

I would think a crime would actually have to be committed by the person doing the intimidation.

5. Intimidation IS a crime. Nothing more is required but a cooperative prosecuting attorney.
