Department of Homeland Security v Does [1]

According to the Wayne County Star [2], the Department of Home­land Security is investigating racially insensitive comments posted to an article [3] on the Wayne County Star’s website [4] about a July 12 incident in which Border Patrol officials questioned the legal status of passengers on a boat near Sodus Point, New York. According to the Star [2], the IP addresses associated with the comments were linked to Border Patrol/Homeland Security computers. According to the New York Times [5], Department rules prohibit employees from using government computers to disseminate material that could offend fellow employees or the public.

The offending posts have since been removed from the site.
