I smell a rat
Posted by Dominic Basulto
Who's a Rat claims to be nothing more than the "largest online database of informants and agents" that assists lawyers and criminal defendants who may lack more traditional resources, but the Web site's detractors say that the site could lead to reprisals against "stool pigeons," snitches and even undercover cops. Since the site was started by a Boston resident who was busted on marijuana charges, it's quite likely that the "Who's a Rat?" Web site is about more than just truth, justice and the American way -- it's about putting the lives of undercover NYPD cops at risk.

It's about time. This whosarat.com website is way overdue, this site will help level the playing field and the best part is it's completely legal and the whosarat webmasters as well as all webmasters have complete immunity from the government.
