Newspaper Tries To Intimidate Gun Owners
— Pixy Misa

The White Plains newspaper The Journal-News has decided to produce an interactive map of every licensed pistol permit holder in three New York counties.

The map indicates the addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland counties. Each dot represents an individual permit holder licensed to own a handgun Â— a pistol or revolver. The data does not include owners of long guns Â— rifles or shotguns Â— which can be purchased without a permit. Being included in this map does not mean the individual at a specific location owns a weapon, just that they are licensed to do so.

The information is public, however there is no legitimate reason for them to consolidate it and put it on an interactive map. Well, no other reason than intimidation. The newspaper doesn't offer an explanation for why they created this interactive map.

This is bitter, spiteful and dangerous. This puts the gun owners in great danger. Do you live in New York? Do you want a gun? Well rob these homes to get one. When that eventually happens or someone is killed as a result of this stunt, the newspaper won't be held to account. The editorial staff and reporters won't care at all.

Fortunately, a blogger at For What Its Worth, decided that two can play that game. He found the publisher's address, pictures of the inside of her home on Zillow, and her personal likes and dislikes culled from her credit card records.

It should be noted that all of that information is public. It will be hard not to laugh when she accuses bloggers and gun nuts of intimidation.

That is based on first-hand knowledge.

5 When someone who has a restraining order against someone else has his or her address revealed and when the psycho ex shows up and something bad happens I sure as fuck would sue the newspaper. That is an obvious result and let the newspaper try to claim that private citizens are piblic figures.

I'd think many would be thieves would think of it as a map of what houses in general to avoid.

7 >>Fine by me. Send criminals to a well armed home.

Here's the thing, criminals always want to get their hands on guns. They' can't buy them in stores.

A lot of guns used in crimes or murders are stolen guns. So let's say many of these permit holders own multiple guns. Well, all a criminal has to do is wait for that homeowner to leave and then ransack the house.

You can't take all your guns with you every time you leave your house.

As with all public information, a decent bit of it is out of date or not updated. As with voter roles, they're usually two years behind.

10 Nice little newspaper you've got there. It'd be a shame if anything happened to it.

Posted by: Andy at December 24, 2012 12:47 PM (OZPoa)

11 Well, after looking at this map, we know which houses don't have guns so we can hit them now. Thanks, Journal News.

Posted by: Happy Thieves at December 24, 2012 12:48 PM (mxRtd)

12 I would say that the gun owners on the map aren't too likely to be harassed personally.

The map also comes in handy for potential burglars who want to know who isn't armed when they go for a score or home invasion

15 As I said, the last time I heard of this happening it was in VA and they published all the reporters and the management of the newspaper's name and home address.

The newspapers got the word right fast that this kind of game has two edges to the sword.

17 Has happened before, will happen again. Should publish the addresses and *incomes* of the Journal's employees in return. Good start, though. It's "ideological public shaming," they feel so secure in their dominance of the lines of communication that they can "shame" other people for disagreeing with them. Similar to the reasons they're so rabid and offensive when it comes to conservative minorities.

Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at December 24, 2012 12:52 PM (bxiXv)

18 What the liberals always fail to understand this stuff does. Not only is it that the criminals now know who to rob to get a gun but it has removed some of the liberal's protection because crooks know which houses to loot and they don't need to be worried about getting shot.

Posted by: buzzion at December 24, 2012 12:52 PM (GULKT)

19 Well we know what houses will not be robbed.

Posted by: Jumbo Shrimp at December 24, 2012 12:52 PM (DGIjM)

20 And this little action by the newspaper just reinforces one other thing I said earlier. They are much more dangerous than anything the widespread ownership of guns could do.

We should be pushing for MFM control.

Oh, and I forgot to mention the other reason they do this - not just so these people can be found and murdered by the people they have restraining orders against, but so that leftist thugs can harass them personally. "Get in their faces," as it were.

Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at December 24, 2012 12:55 PM (bxiXv)

23 Thanks!

The website's map is also a map of homes where the owner is unarmed.

They're gonna get people killed. They should be in jail right now for this. Cyber-bullying, harassment, whatever, just get them off the street and yank this map.

People will look back and realize this is going to be the day the bloodshed was started. I hope you are all prepared for this.

32 No, they shouldn't be in jail for this. As the publisher said, it's public information. Any enterprising crook could get it in exactly the same way the paper did.

However, it is an attempt to humiliate and intimidate. yAnd the only way to deal with that is to punch back twice as hard.

33 This twisted idea demonstrates just how warped these self righteous pricks are and why they can't be left in power over anything meaningful.

Al this does is give prospective criminals a slimmed down list of targets, eliminating self defense types while making more vulnerable those useful idiots that would be on the side of gun grabbers - to real life gun grabbers..

Think Gun Free Zones.

This is laughable, though I applaud the FWIW effort to expose this asshole as more vulnerable than those that she targets.

The Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer drove a fine physician to attempt to take his own life a few years ago, then put details of his suicide attempt on the front page.

NBC's David Gregory poo-poos the idea of having armed guards at schools, but sends his own kid to Sitwell Friends, which does have armed guards.

Liberal journalists are oxygen stealers; in addition, they are subuman pieces of filth.

You don't understand: You rednecks and ethnic minorities aren't supposed to have armed guards at your schools. That's so icky. But Viscount Gregory is entitled. But don't worry, it's an aristocracy built completely on merit. It's just a coincidence his kids go to Fancy Overpriced Academy.

126 #120, Rockland is less rich, but no more rural than Westchester (on average). I don't think that accounts for anything, and certainly not to the extent of the two-county disparity.

128 re: "don't think too many criminals are into 'cross-referencing' most of 'em can't read anyway..."

They're efficient. Plotting crimes is unnecessary, generates error, increases evidence, etc. The way you get away with shit is do it and leave.

Robbery and burglary are crimes of opportunity, and your unconscious mind is a better opportunistic target selector than "you" are. If you find yourself thinking, "I could rob that guy," or "That house looks good," do it.

If crime is your thing.

Criminals who thought acting out a cop-show plot was a good idea are in prison.

From lohud: The Journal News submitted Freedom of Information requests for the names and addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam. By state law, the information is public record.

Putnam is still putting together its records and could not immediately provide any data. The map will be updated when that data is released.

You think they'll release the Putnam information?

150 The fols on the list should take this as a opportunity to connect/unite. Our colonial ancestors formed Committees of Safety to protect themselves from attack.

151 I think that releasing "public" but personal information is vile. Which is, of course, why we're all upset. And why turning it around on the person responsible (and we're sure this is really her, right?) is entirely appropriate. For what it's worth... my husband and I are very pro-gun ownership though we don't own any. I'm seriously thinking of getting a handgun in the next month or two. And while I'm going to get the training available at the gun range in town (probably buy the gun there as well) and may eventually work my way up to the concealed carry course and permits... I'm starting to think that registering and permitting is evil. None of these people would have their privacy violated in this way if they weren't on a government list. And if a dumb ass newspaper can use that information in this way, how *else* might it be used?

Posted by: Synova at December 24, 2012 02:36 PM (7/PU+)

152 Registering and permitting may not be inherently evil. It just enables evil.

Posted by: A Balrog of Morgoth at December 24, 2012 02:39 PM (NL15p)

153 The 2nd Amendment gives us THE RIGHT to bear arms. Not the privilege. Registering and permitting turns the right into a privilege that can be taken away. It would be no different than requiring a govt permit to speak your mind freely.

158 The thing that I find so vile is that these MFM cockholsters publish this info in the hopes that gun owners will be shunned by their friends family and coworkers. They are attacking us in our personal relationships and family lives not in the public sphere. I expect that some of these folks will lose their jobs once their leftist employers find out about their gun permits. Of course, the gun permit will not be cited as the reason why, but you can be sure it'll happen.
