There is a demonstration at the BDN’s office this afternoon.

BDN uses green tubes attached to mail posts in rural delivery areas.

People are detaching them and bringing them to the paper’s office this afternoon.

Others are just canceling the subscription.

Others are calling advertisers to tell them they are being boycotted until they stop using the BDN.

Wonder how much flack they caught from Stephan
"NRA Should 'Clean Up Blood, Brains and Chunks of Intestine'
(if you cant read) "then you’ve got, the Army, Iraq, I don’t know, something like that.”
King

He's quite the big suppository in the rectum liberal bastion, that todays N.E. states have become.

I agree. We need to make the lives of these gun grabbers a living hell. Get them in the pocket by not buying their products, protest them, file endless lawsuits against them and anything that will get under their skin.

Lesson No. 1: When conservatives and patriots get organized and scream at the leftists, they back down. It’s all about taking the Founder’s warnings to heart and acting - liberty requires vigilance.

If the gal in the long white dress (labled Catherine Guidry) fires that weapon, she will end up with a black n blue bum.

The BDN has never had any intention to release identifying information about permit holders...

And I'm the King of England.

The fuss over the request is largely due to the precedent set by the Journal News, a NYC-based publication that upon obtaining lists of gun owners from local police departments created interactive maps displaying their names and addresses.

But BDN’s leadership claimed that they weren’t going to do what the Journal News did, they were simply going to study the information, examine it to see if any trends related to crime and public safety emerge.


They only did it for the sake of the chirrrdren...
