Today, social media is a vital investigative tool and we make a use of it in these background investigations in order to render a well-founded and complete recommendation on applicants to the courts.

None of the eight (8) applicants who supplied Facebook information have had their accounts accessed, which I know because I am the investigating officer and the only person conducting background checks.
I approach this duty with the greatest respect for gun owners and their rights, a perspective that is shaped by my 9-year service in the U.S. Navy and exposure to guns at a young age through my grandfather, a well-respected gunsmith. I do not take guns, gun safety or our freedoms as Americans lightly, and as Chief of Police I have a serious job to do, and I approach it with respect.’

Ask your kids how they create multiple Facebook accounts - one for the parents and one for their buddies.

I saw one response from the police chief that basically said, "that shouldn't have been in the application packet; it's something we use in interviews".
So now that the public knows about it, will they stop being nosy?

I guess maybe I could have...I sure don't remember it though.
