Newspaper Tells Readers Who Owns Guns - Party Time For Burgulars! Empty Newspaper Tells Readers Who Owns Guns - Party Time For Burgulars!

Post by Allison Fuller Tue Dec 25, 2012 11:13 am

A New York extremist left wing controlled newspaper (Gannett Press) just printed the names and addresses of anyone who has legally registered guns in the household in Rockland and Westchester County, NY. Basically they printed a map for violent criminals to know what houses to break into to find guns. This is not freedom of speech, it is communist journalism at it FINEST! It reduces gun owners to the level of sex offenders by creating a click on map of their names and address. Yes it is public info, but the paper has no right to expose these law abiding people to grave danger! This newspaper is EVERYTHING that is wrong with America! Do yourself a favor - don't ever travel to New York or spend one dime there!  What's next a map of households with gays so bashers can find them easier? New Yorkers like this kind of extreme control.

Watch the video and then read the article and view the interactive map to see real law abiding  American citizens being put on public lists!

Here is the interactive map of these "evil gun owners" for all to see - it's 1942 Germany all over again! http://www.lohud.com/interactive/article/20121223/NEWS01/121221011/Map-Where-gun-permits-your-neighborhood-





Newspaper Posts Gun Owners' Names

By Colleen Curry | ABC News Blogs – 17 hrs ago

A newspaper in New York has received a wave of criticism from its
readers after publishing the names and addresses of all of the
individuals with handgun or pistol permits in its coverage area.

Hundreds of residents in New York's Westchester and Rockland counties were surprised to find         their names and addresses listed on a map posted by         The Journal News on Sunday. Users can click any dot on the map to see which of their neighbors has a permit for a gun.

The map sparked more than 500 comments from readers within a day of its
appearance on the website, many of them voicing outrage at the paper's
decision to make the information public.

"This is CRAZY!! why in the world would you post every licensed gun
owner information?? What do you hope to accomplish by doing this. This
is the type of thing you do for sex offenders not law abiding gun
owners. What next? should i hang a flag outside my house that says I own
a gun? I am canceling my subscription with your paper today!!!" said
commenter         Curtis Maenza.

"How about a map of the editorial staff and publishers of Gannett and
Journal News with names and addresses of their families…," wrote
commenter         George Thompson.

All of the names and addresses were compiled through public records. The
paper also requested the information from Putnam County, which is still
compiling the records for publication, according to The Journal News'
website.
   
In a statement to ABC News, The Journal News said its readers "are
understandably interested to know about guns in their neighborhoods,"
because of the conversation about gun control on its website after the
shooting in Newtown, Conn., last week.

"We obtained the names and addresses of Westchester and Rockland
residents who are licensed to own handguns through routine Freedom of
Information law requests. We also requested information on the number
and types of guns owned by permit holders, but officials in the county
clerks offices in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam counties maintained
that those specifics were not public record," the statement read.

"New York's top public-records expert, Robert Freeman, disagrees," it added.

The paper declined to answer further questions about the map.
