[mrsleeve]

Owners NAME AND ADDRESS complete with fun interactive maps for the interwebs, see links below.

Any of you guys from NY and OWN a HAND GUN , You might want to take a look at this. New York states Complete Hand Gun permit Holders list (not just CCW but plain ol OWNERS list) some of which has Not just names but addresses and phone numbers

http://www.paladium.net/usa-farnewyorkstate0000PistolPermit2010Jun_01.php

Seems "The Journal News" has printed it with address, and an interactive map that has permits issued from the Westchester and Rockland counties near the city, but shows many scattered all over the state.

Here is the Journal story Complaining about being Called out by readers and residents, and trying to defend them selves. This one falls into the just because you can does not mean you should category.

This is a bit of a privacy issue in my mind. Discuss

Outrageous. I'd really like to know why and how the could think this was a brilliant idea.

Lawsuits need to happen. Hopefully some asswipe doesn't get a notion to show up at some of the addresses and do stupid shit.

So here is the address and phone of NY Journal "calumnist" Dwight R. Worley who published all of the HOME ADDRESSES of Law Abiding Conceal Carry Gun Owners of the entire state of NY:

Dwight R Worley
23006 139 Ave
Springfield Gardens, NY 11413

But you might want to call him first to let him know you’ll be dropping in: (718 ) 527-0832

links gone

[Cletonius]

Can you fix those links?

[cale]

^ Probably not, someone with half a brain pulled that shit down hopefully.

I'm all for making changes to systems which are flawed, but you need to do it the right way. It certainly doesn't help to go off the deep end and take it upon yourself to do what exactly...hassle those you disagree with? Hope this guy looses his job and is sued out the ass.

Can you fix those links?

Search for the address in yahoo.com and use the cache link.

BOOM!

[z31maniac]

Ahhh the old retaliate by doing what we were pissed about!

Sounds vaguely familiar to lefties who call for the heads of the NRA and such.

There links are fixed, Apparently LoHud is not a fan of having these stories linked to other places. If it does go 404 again, just go to lohud dot com and type gun into the search the bottom article is about the 3rd result down and the map article is about the 34th article down on PG2. as of today the 26th.

The first go to paladium. DoT net scroll down to NY click, scroll again toward the bottom and you will see a link NY state Pistol Permits click that and you will have EVERY ONE form the state listed

Manic thats not the point, Why should you get your name and address in the paper for being a law abiding citizen, how would you like it for owning more than 2 cars or a gas guzzling V8, or any other piece of property in your home that someone else may not agree with like say Beer or fine whiskey. You live in tulsa there are many that would not agree with you having those things either, How would you like your name and address On a interactive map on tulsa world for everyone to see where you live and how much you buy at the liquor store, you would have MADD/SADD and temperance movement people on your door step handing you religious flyers all the time, or maybe the cops watching for when you to check and see if your drunk all the time ??

Same principal, the reporters name and address is a "matter of public record" too just like a NY state pistol owners is, so I feel this falls into the "whats good for the goose is good for the gander" kinda thing.

[der affe]

I guess they are going to do it again....seriously fuck them. I would love to see mass subscription cancellations and advertisements pulled.

Stupid Hypocrites have had to hire ARMED security to protect their offices.

Huh go figure

Heard about this today. Turned out just about as good as it could have.

As hypocritical as it may seem, it's not necessarily a bad move. Like I said before, these people are fucking morons..lets get that out there first. However, just because you disagree with gun ownership in the form of CCW's doesn't mean you make yourself vulnerable simply to appear un-hypocritical. I believe 100% that you can argue against CCW while having a gun on your hip, it's a matter of you lower yours and I'll lower mine. I don't think you want to lower yours on the assumption someone won't take advantage of you disarming yourself.

The nuclear arms race and subsequent disarming is quite similar. Obama has made it quite clear he's for the dismantling of nuclear arsenals, and has even agreed to do so. But don't think for a second he's going to make your country vulnerable to prove a point, you best believe he and any further administrations will keep their hands on some as long as the threat of others having them is still out there. That doesn't mean they're hypocritical, it means they're covering their asses.

^

Those maps are NOT JUST CCW HOLDERS those maps are ALL hand gun owners, you have to get a permit to acquire a hand gun in NYS.

You dont make a political stunt like this and insinuate everyone that has a gun is evil for having them, and they hire armed people with guns to protect you for it, just because you are getting some hate Email for endangering the lives and homes of millions of people on and off the list depending on how criminals want to utilize the information.

[cale]

You most certainly do protect yourself with the necessary level of protection if a threat presents itself, hypocrisy or not. Thinking that those weapons are out there does make them any less dangerous, and they pissed off a bunch of those owners..they're wise to cover their asses.

Sadly the information they accessed is likely accessible by anyone and likely isn't going to end with anything bad for the writers is it?
