The original net article had a list of the NAME AND ADDRESSES of all CCW holders in the Roanoke, Va area, including cops, local judges, and city council members. Those holders went absolutely berzerk. Every lawyer in town is sharpening their knives to carve a piece out of this yardbird's hide, and the rag he works(ed?) for.
Christian Trejbal and other sex offenders obviously feel unfair treatment. He wants to be able to go out and buy a permit to commit sex offenses instead of committing them surreptitiously.
No bomb at editorial writer's home
By Donna Alvis-Banks and Paul Dellinger
UPDATED 4:18 p.m.
The mysterious package that was delivered today to Roanoke Times editorial writer Christian Trejbal's home and prompted the closing of a Christiansburg street turned out to be full of blank mailing labels and cardboard mailers.
School Lane was closed, a state police bomb squad was called and at least some neighbors were evacuated after Trejbal, who attracted a deluge of criticism with a column about concealed carry firearms permits, found the package during a lunch-time trip home. Trejbal has received threats in the wake of his Sunday column, which celebrated open government and public records and was accompanied by an online database listing the about 135,000 Virginians who are licensed to carry concealed firearms. The information is available to anyone who inquires at county courthouses, or can be obtained on a statewide basis from Richmond.

They seem to be a tad bit edgy, lol.
Sounds good to me.
In the same spirit of openness, somebody needs to post the arrest records and medical records of every employee of the Roanoke Times. I want made publicly known every drunk driver and every editor with Herpes. While we are at it, let's publish who failed to pay child support and who failed to repay their student loans.
We are sheep. The "right" to carry a firearm is no longer a right and has been made a "privelege" because some genertation before mine gave that right away a long time ago. If you need a piece of paper to exercise a right, then it isn't a right. I don't need a permit to speak.
Stinking bastards at the Roanoke Times. I hope everyone cancels their subscriptions.
Yeah, I just saw that. Disgusting. I hope that the paper and that louse reporter are sued to oblivion.
The box was full of blank mailers and labels from shipping company DHL. Wendy Parmalee of DHL's Blacksburg office said the box sounded like something that went to new customers and she was not sure why it was delivered to Trejbal.
Sounds more like he's trying to establish a basis for a claim of victimhood!
This only partially correct. It was a list of all of the concealed handgun permit holders in the state. all 135,000 + of us.
Oh yes they did! Name and street address of record.
Already here. Lawful gun owners in Massachusetts must register with the Massachusetts Criminal History System Board and may not move without notifying the state. Liberals get a big yuk out of this.
So will the same editor publish the names of people with AIDs who've been treated at government hospitals?
Or people who've had abortions...or is this new "sunshine" policy only about the Right while keeping the Left in the dark?
Just brilliant! I bow to the master (whoever he or she may be!)
Note that the paper never said they had permanently pulled the database which allows one to search by last name and city for permit holders and gives their address and date of permit/expiration date, as well as other info.
They only 'pulled it to verify its accuracy'.
Keep in mind that in the northern part of the state, close to D.C., there are people in a variety of professions who relate to our National Security who may have permits and who may not generally make their street addresses known.
If anyone had been paying attention, these people, as well as those who may have been hiding from a range of threats such as gangs, terrorist organizations, rabid ex spouses, stalkers, etc. may have had their home's location compromised. Not to mention the fact that every person in the database who has been researched is now a known gunowner and a potential target for everything from daylight burglary to liberal crackpots.
Looks as if it is lawsuit time again in the deep south.
Damn!
By the time I posted my response, trajbal cut off any more comments (I bet the skode hadn't planned on the firestorm he ignited!) without prior "approval".
It appears that the list included things like the home address of the Chief Justice of the VA State Supreme Court.
I imagine that is a legal issue for the paper.
True. They might also want to know if the guy driving is a homosexual. Some parents of girls don't want them alone with a man; similarly, parents of boys might not want them alone with a gay man. Since the default is heterosexual, it's obvious (using the editor's logic) that homosexuals need to register with the state and those records made public. A website would be a nice touch, too.
