Yea call the cops, that will be more effective than letting us know the course this happened at. This is the largest DG community on the net so maybe there is something we can do if we know where to look.
I am big on privacy and would rather not disclose my location
I don't know where he's from or what course he was playing...but I do know this is beginning to happen more often in Raleigh. It seems that several guys around here have seen their discs picked up by some random dude, and he just runs off with it. So if you are playing Kentwood in Raleigh, watch out on 18. Just a heads up.
Just an FYI I think it may be illegal to post pic's of this punk. It sucks but he does have a right to privacy even if he is a thief. I know for a fact that it is illegal to publish photos or video of someone without writen consent. I think posting flyers at the course would be considered publishing. It would really suck to get in trouble trying to get your disc back.
Do you think people ASK to end up on wanted posters?
he's have to come forward to get you for posting his pic. and admit to stealing the disc.
it would be an interesting court case fer sure

It really turns my stomach with what this sport has turned into these past couple of years, makes me think twice about calling when I find someones disc, no one calls me.

by not telling us the course you're allowing this guy to possibly do it to another golfer. it's not like you're giving us your social, name, date of birth, or anything of any value. it's just the name of a public park dude, or maybe a private course, but i doubt this kind of thing would happen at a private course.

I might just start carrying my rifle with me and next time he runs out take a shot at him, he sure wouldn't do it again after that
It all depends on the setting in which the pictures were taken and the manner in which it is being used.
You cannot use someone's image to promote a service or product without written consent. You may not also use a minor's picture if taken at a place of trust like a school without the parents' consent.
However, if used in neither of those two ways, it is the owner of the picture than can determine how the picture is used as long as it is in a non-slanderous or libel way. Unfortunately this area is a little grey when talking about minors.
Or at least that is what I was told during a teacher's workshop about taking and using pictures of students in my classroom.
Now, it is common courtesy to ask for permission to use the picture in a public forum, but asking is different than requiring. Basically, it comes down to the wording that is paired with the picture.

You have to remember that Einstein here is considering bringing his rifle in order to "take a shot" at this kid next time. He doesn't want to leave a trail for some sort of crime solving genius to catch him after the attempted murder.
