Thanks for this post. The key take-away is “swift and concerted action” is required. The left doesn’t expect pusshback. They’ve been dealing with pushovers [looking at you, McConnell and Boehner] for so long that they expect to be able to say and do whatever they want without opposition. Time to “punch back twice as hard”.

I put this on the list of things that conservative politicians will have to deal with in the future, by enacting *criminal* sanctions against, to start with, governmental organizations that collect such data solely because they want to.

I figure it will have to be part of an enormous and powerful “Database Control Act”, in which the keeping of the personal information of individuals, especially customers, can only be done legally with a *written*, not computer “opt in”, and that those individuals must be notified, at given intervals depending on the information, that such information of theirs is part of a given database, which they must opt-into again or it must be deleted.

Part two of the DCA will be to require all federal agencies to keep personal information about citizens in just a single agency, with only the information they are authorized to have available to them. And all such personal information, except as relates to criminal matters, should be available to any citizen by FOIA request.

Part three will be the authority of citizens to correct errors by an auditing process, based on written evidence.

Counter with a state-by-state list of the addresses, car tags and phone numbers of liberal lawyers, activists, journalist & politicians earning over $100K, or with a net worth of over $1 million.

“Revealing information” can be a two way street.

Excellent. You got the ear of a media mogul, and you represented us well. I'd consider reformatting for readability and posting this for posterity. If you like, I can assist you with the formatting. Use of Blockquote, Italics, Bold and even Font Colors can help.

You done good.

Dear Laz,
Thank you for the kind words from Laz, one of the stars here at FR. :-))
I should like to avail myself of your kind offer on the reformat thingy. Still learning the HTML stuff.
Please let me know what I might need to do at this end.
FREEgards,
Dick

I sent my message yesterday at 11:11 am Pacific, and Bush got back to me in just over 2 1/2 hours. My guess is that he was inundated and had others helping with email answers. Or, it was simply the standard cut and past answer from one of his underlings.

Well done! Freerepublic.com at its very best.

That Civitas editor suddenly has a very different image of Second Amendment supporters, or is at least aware that we too can deploy information technology in defense of our beliefs.

Their web page identifies each newspaper they own.
Each paper has the name of its editor.

We can take it from there...

I really think libs are trying to push us into another civil war. Everything they do seems designed to ratchet up tensions, to dissolve more and more of the Constitution, and - via the most outrageous and unchallenged (by the media) rhetoric (e.g., Cuomo) - to provoke a violent response.

What would be the point of publishing the names of concealed carry permit holders? Defamation? Ridicule? What in the world are you thinking, Mr. Lawitz?
