Anti-Speed Camera Activist Buys Police Department's Web Domain 680
Brian McCrary just bought a website to complain about a $90 speeding ticket he received from the Bluff City PD — the Bluff City Police Department site. The department let its domain expire and McCrary was quick to pick it up. From the article: "Brian McCrary found the perfect venue to gripe about a $90 speeding ticket when he went to the Bluff City Police Department's website, saw that its domain name was about to expire, and bought it right out from under the city's nose. Now that McCrary is the proud owner of the site, bluffcitypd.com, the Gray, Tenn., computer network designer has been using it to post links about speed cameras — like the one on US Highway 11E that caught him — and how people don't like them."

It's gonna be a real bummer for him when he gets stopped for speeding, he acts "suspicious", they search his car, and then they just happen to "find" some cocaine in the trunk.

It's a .com because speed traps are commercial revenue generation schemes.

Take responsibility for yourself. Someone else's stupid driving should very rarely put your family at significantly higher risk unless you let it.
Right... Because I can control the other driver's speed. And their state of mind and mental condition. Also, I have direct control and final say about the mechanical condition of their vehicle.
No. I AM NOT in any way responsible for the stupidity of other people or their stupid actions. All I can do is be aware and alert. People need to smarten-up and take responsibility for their own actions.

I'm no Nascar fan, but, puh-leeze. Citation needed.
That's just backwards - you'll never manage to get a Citation up over 55!
