The Sheboygan Press - City tries to block link to police Web site: "A Sheboygan woman who runs a Web site often critical of Mayor Juan Perez has been ordered by the city to remove a Sheboygan Police Department link on her unrelated business site, a demand a legal expert says the city has no right to make. In a move initiated by Perez, City Attorney Steve McLean sent a cease-and-desist letter earlier this month to Jeni Reisinger, who was among the leaders of a mayoral recall effort last year, officials acknowledged Friday. The letter, dated Oct. 19, states, 'maintenance of this link could be construed as having been authorized or endorsed by the city and/or its police department' and should be removed 'until such time as the city were to authorize such a link.' Madison attorney Bob Dreps said the law is clear that neither Reisinger nor anyone else needs permission to link to the police Web site. 'It's a public site. (A link) is like saying this is somebody's address and helping them get there,' Dreps said. 'It just doesn't raise anything that any court has found violates any law.'"
They take away free speech and you people sit there and do nothing. You deserve what you get.
