NEW YORK (Reuters) - A suburban New York newspaper that sparked an uproar among gun enthusiasts by publishing names and addresses of residents holding pistol permits is now planning to publish even more identities of permit-toting locals.
Further names and addresses will be added as they become available to a map originally published on December 24 in the White Plains, New York-based Journal News, the newspaper said.
The original map listed thousands of pistol permit holders in suburban Westchester and Rockland counties just north of New York City.
Along with an article entitled "The gun owner next door: What you don't know about the weapons in your neighborhood," the map was compiled in response to the December 14 shooting deaths of 26 children and adults in Newtown, Connecticut, editors of the Gannett Corp.-owned newspaper said.

The government hasn’t as yet acted to ban guns, so our media is doign everythigtn they can to intimidate gun owners and put their lives at risk- Even movie directors tried to incite murder agaisnt Zimmerman by publishing his address- Our freakin media and hte left are tryign to incite murder- they are desperately hoping someone will snap and go to one of the posted addresses and murder the occupents-
What a swell main stream media we have here in America- They want to incite violence on our own citizens- These fraks are WORSE than actual criminals- these cowards want to incite criminals while they themselves sit back with ‘clean hands’ and watch and cash in on, the violence that ensues-
Perhaps the people whos names have been posted by the media should post hte names, addresses and work schedules of everyoen invovled i nthe maisntream media who has attempted to make them targets of criminals-
U R correct and some old folks are going to be broken into and murdered because of this garbage. These idiots need to be sued.
Some guy looking for his ex-wife will find her.
focus on ADVERTISERS.
that is their lifeblood.
re: I’m sure burglars read these reports with great interest. “Stay away from 317 Elm St. But it looks like 320 is pretty prime.”
Exactly right!! This info tells every would-be thief which homes are safe and which are not. But, these gun-hating guys are totally clueless - they won’t get it.
". . . some key [events] exacerbated the national debate, fraying trust, and national cohesion just a little more each time . . . The two-party system that had governed America . . . began to fall apart . . . interest in politics took the place of all other forms of news-related entertainment . . . politicians were the celebrities . . . [Politics/ideology] was becoming such a habit, the reactions so automatic, that [journalists] taking sides on every news story became inevitable."
.. I just can't avoid thinking about this from for Love & Liberty by Robin Young and it's about 1857 America.
One-hundred-and-fifty years later the discord is over
How about posting advertisers addresses and home phone numbers????
[[They are so absorbed in their self-righteous indignance of someone else owning a gun, that they don’t even realize there could be a real nutjob out there that won’t stop with finding out email addresses, phone numbers, even home addresses]]
Oh they realize it alright- in hteir sick minds, they woudl be absoltuely giddy over a ‘radical right gun owner’ beign murdered because hteirl sit provided the nutcase with the info needed to find and target the gun owner- their seethign hatred for the right includes a desire to see legal citzens with legal guns beign murdered- and i ntheir mnind, they will think the victim got what they deserved- plus they would benifit fro mthe ensuing story because peopel woudl be buying hte paper to ‘learn the details’ (which iof course will be written i nsuch a way as to exhonorate the paper and make the guin owner look like hte evil one- JUST LIKE they did in the Zimemrman case
I Truly beleive the left are so deranged that they woudl be giddy over a right wing gun owner being mrudered and owudl say “Well, they got what they deserved because they would not oppose gun ownership- they are the reason violence happens in this nation- they have created this ‘death culture’, and if it wasn’t for legal guns, criminals wouldn’t have the ability to use guns because htere wouldn’t be any guns, and perhaps now gun owners will think twice about owning guns... (big pouty puppyu eye look) We can only hope”’
I truly beleive these leftist media freaks are actively tryign to incite murder- just as they did i nthe Zimmerman case by REFUSING to objectively report the FACTS, and by not so subtly insinuating it was a white on black racist shooting- The media was KNOWINGLY trying to incite the black community to hunt down George Zimmerman AND his family and murder them- After watchign hteir despicable bias and leftist ideology at work, you can’t help but coem to any other conclusion- These media freaks are triators to this country- They are tryign to tear down thsi country- NOT build it up!
The fault is the Gov't requiring a Permit to own a handgun. Free peoples don't need permission to conduct their Rights.
In NY you could purchase a rifle or shotgun. No 'required' permit in that case.
Someone will do the research and pull something from these maps that the so-called newspaper isn't gonna like very much.
I read somewhere that several of the names published were of sexual assault victims whose *stalker/attackers/etc* now have their victims (previously undisclosed) addresses. At least these thugs know their victims are packing, now. Still unsettling, none the less.
I live in NE Ct. I don’t know a neighbor who doesn’t own a gun and I know a lot of neighbors. The area I live in is pretty rural and its the most conservative part of a liberal state but it is still dominated by democrats and my democrat neighbors have guns as well. Culture shock would whack this newspaper upside the head up here in the quiet corner.
Love it! It could be titled "Where YOUR Tax Dollars Are Going". Taxpayers should have an entitlement, too...to know EXACTLY where OUR $$ is going.
Registered gun owners have purchased their firearms themselves...w/out government handouts...yet, once again, we're the ones being punished.
If I was licensed to practice in NY, I’d happily take the case of a client who sues the hell out of that paper if something happens to one of those pistol permit holders. Some of them are domestic violence survivors trying to hide from a piece of crap they left.
Yes, these are the people who should he yelling!
If they don’t, tough luck when they’re visited by the bad guys. Your neighbor won’t be inclined to help you. lol
Publish the names and residential addresses of the board members of the leftist media.
If this isn’t inciting death threats, I don’t know what is! Can’t they be sued for that alone?
Not death threats but endangerment of law biding citizen’s lives.
