Rate My Only One Redux

For most people, making a mistake on the job is tough enough. But imagine the whole world finding out about it and then judging you on the Internet.

That's happening to many police officers across the country.
We've visited this issue before, so I'll not make the same points again. What I will do is point out the comments at the NBC10.com site maintaining this is something bad.

Getting news from gun blogs has a hidden cost in terms of reaching outside "the choir": That's usually the only reach your comments will have, and the general public--who we need to get our message to, particulary about RKBA and/or The "Only Ones"--will too often be left in the dark as to "our" side of things.I suggest that we all make it a practice when commenting on stories on blogs to also post the same comment on the originating site. Yes, it will take an extra moment, but surely everyone can see the outreach benefit of making this a regular practice...
