Its legal for your Facebook friends to show your profile to police

[quote]NEW YORK — With Facebook "friends" like this, who needs enemies?
A reputed Bronx gang-banger who boasted online about his alleged criminal exploits had his "private" posts reviewed by the feds after one of his Facebook friends turned rat.
Melvin "Melly" Colon, who used the online alias "Mellymel Balla," claimed his Constitutional rights were violated when police searched his account.
But Manhattan federal Judge William Pauley III ruled any evidence gleaned from the account was done so legally, even though Colon "undoubtedly believed that his Facebook profile would not be shared with law enforcement."
According to court papers, Colon's posts included: "Im trying to see the man for like 600 grams" — which the feds say is a reference to crack cocaine — and "Wats ya body count n---a im triple digits!"
Colon, 20, also allegedly posted several photos of himself and others "making hand gestures commonly referred to as 'gang signs.' "
Colon was busted last year on a slew of charges tied to his alleged leadership of the Courtlandt Avenue Crew.[/quote]

I'm okay with that.
You'd have to be pretty fucking dumb to upload pictures of your crimes on facebook, even if the profile is private.
I know a few gang-bangers. Time to wreak havoc on these incompetent little shits to society.
:)
Edit: LOL why all the artistics?
If they took the "Wats ya body count nigga, im triple digits", they're dumb. It's from a song by the rapper meek mill, I heard it before somewhere
Why would you boast about it? Surely you'd keep shit like this on the down-low.
good thing I have no friends
I remember when someone broke into my friends car and I was with him and the cop that came said they didn't let him use Facebook but was at liberty to look at it if he was shown one so my friend showed his neighbors facebook so he had a name and picture.
I thought you always could.

I never got what that term meant. I always assumed it was a group of guys who ambush women and then rape them, but I think that's a stretch.

im pretty sure this is for criminals that have already had charges pressed against them, or have posts that would imply they have committed crimes. profile pictures of people you dislike will not get them arrested

No seriously. When I said, "I know a few gang-bangers," I know a few gang-bangers. A good amount actually, and some are on my friends list. I got some pretty iffy connections. I've seen some really ridiculous shit these dumbasses put on Facebook. Now if I really wanted to I guess I could go to the police and show them these pictures of these kids who are toting guns and bags of marijuana/crack/whatever else they deal. But I wouldn't do that.

Only if they done a violent crime or something big but if they did nothing but sells drugs and throw up a few gang signs then that would make you a punk ass snitch nigga.

I wasn't being serious. You're right I'd have no need to waste my time with them unless they did do something pretty fucked up.

On then in that case its cool bruh.
Really? Huh. Who knew that posting your crimes on a public website under your real name and address could get you in trouble?
[QUOTE=DinoJesus;37302926]I never got what that term meant. I always assumed it was a group of guys who ambush women and then rape them, but I think that's a stretch.[/QUOTE]
That's the proper definition but it applies to people who group and ambush people to injure or rob them, destroy public and private property, etc.
I laugh at the dumbasses on my friends' list who post up shit like "Weed for sale, inbox me" or stupid bullshit like that. I'm just gonna laugh and shake my head if they're ever arrested.
