NY paper that mapped gun permit homes now hires armed security!

The irony, the hypocrisy, this is hilarious!

The answer to a bad guy with a gun is NOT a good guy with a gun, unless the bad guy might be after us.

Or, what's good for the Journal News is no good for the school children of America.

These people are garbage.

And here's a great letter on the topic:

A bunch of hypocrites, funny story, what I see goes around comes around

 

[Concerned Citizen]

And a state rep is now introducing legistlation to take this info out of the public records. Might be a happy ending after all.

This is one of the funniest things I've read in a long time in this upside down world.

First thing, if anyone is harmed by criminals vectored in by this reporting, I hope a jury skins them alive with punitive damages. Second, since they seem to be paranoid after kicking a hornets' nest, what do they expect if there is a breakdown in order, hence accountability, with the police making a decision to be someplace else as was the case with the LA riots? I don't have a dog in this fight, but I can see where that would be a lot of temptation for someone whose privacy was invaded by these sorry, sorry excuses for human beings.

Would like to see them lose enough subscribers and advertisers to go out of business.

I would like to see liberals lose voters and get out of office too, but for some reason they don't. That's why I say this world we live in seems upside down right now.

So who is it they are afraid of again? Surely it is not the law abiding gun owners!

Just like Indiana did.

People like themselves. With good reason.

Some people 'outed' the employees at the paper to 'even the score'

 

[Jack Burton]

A hacker broke into the newspaper's website and now has all 10,000 names, addresses and phone numbers of everyone who has given that info to be a member of the website. Apparently the names are going to be posted on a map the same way the gun owners were.

They bring a knife... you bring a friggen tactical nuke. Won't be too many newspapers willing to bring a knife anymore.

I think you guys are missing it. They are not technically hypocrites. They are simply scared for their lives, because they themselves did not show up on their own map. Thus they are sitting targets for criminal element, as they are unable to defend themselves.

The map doesnt just show who the gun owners are. It also shows who isn't.
