Fury After Paper Publishes Names, Addresses of Legal Pistol Owners in New York

These kinds of tactics are quite dangerous indeed. Next it will be people with nice cars or better than average anything at all or men with hot girlfriends. This is so very wrong.

New York Journal News Publishes Names, Addresses of Gun Permit Holders in Westchester, Rockland Counties

New York’s “Journal News” ignited a fierce debate Sunday after publishing the names and addresses of pistol permit holders in two New York counties.  They are actively working on acquiring data for a third county.

The article, titled “Map: Where are the gun permits in your neighborhood?,” reads:

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 — a pistol or revolver. The data does not include owners of long guns — rifles or shotguns — 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.

Data for all permit categories, unrestricted carry, premises, business, employment, target and hunting, is included, but permit information is not available on an individual basis.

To create the map, 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.  [Emphasis added]

Here is what the map for Rockland County looks like (note: the image below is a screen shot, so clicking on the dots will not reveal the personal information like in the original):

  1. Note that the paper didn’t care that they were targeting the non gun owners for takeover robberies, they don’t care about people getting hurt they just want to ban guns.

  2. This action simply classes the darling of the Leftists, pedophiles, in the same rank as the object of Leftist hatred…..gun owners…..

    I suggest we “out” the owners of the newspaper……..publish all of their personal information for the consumption of lunatics…

  4. Santor they think they can win, they think the police and military will back them and arrest all who resist their power grabs. I don’t think they will, but what I think doesn’t matter, the left is showing its true colors and people are getting very afraid of them.

  5. I wanted to cut and paste a large section of the comments here at Vladteppesblog that contain the addresses and the links to their Facebook listing……but my post was kicked out by the blog engine….too many links and to many url’s I guess…

    Maybe Vlad can fix that…

  6. The Left seems to have an axe to grind……

    From Obama on down, and this includes a treasonous academia, an activist judiciary and its handmaiden, the Mainstream Media, who manufacture the news through lies, ignorance or fact and outright distortions of truth.

    From Hillary Clinton and her rabid bitch lapdog, Huma Abedin, with all their cozy ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, from Obama’s lineage of hatred for America from his whore of a mother, to his Kenyan father who coughed blood at the mere mention of the letters U S A……to his childhood handler Frank Davis to his comrades in the Weather Underground……communism, the most virulent and rankest strain of that madness is what course through the veins of these men and women….

    There is not one bit of difference between those who so enthusiastically purged the undesirables for Stalin and those like the Journal News editorial staff Cyndee Royle and Janet Hasson.

    From Stalin, to Mao, to Pol Pot, to Hitler, to Muhammad…..every single one as mad as hatters and as a result, well over 270 million souls have been ground to a bloody pulp ‘neath the boot-heel of totalitarian fascism…

    Make no mistake……were Cyndee Royle and Hasson given the opportunity they would gleefully man the smoking pistols in the film clip below…

    This clip is from the movie “Katyn”, a movie made to document the murder of over 15,000 Polish officers in the Katyn Forest…….murdered by devotees of Stalin…..devotees cut from the same bolt of cloth as Cyndee Royle and Janet Hasson…

  7. Hello all……..its me…..again….

    Hopefully you will spare this issue between 30 and 60 minutes of your time.

    We cannot allow what, ostensibly, are reporters of news and current events, to, with motivations rabidly leftist in nature, change that paradigm into one of political activism that threatens the lives of decent, law abiding men and women and their families. This, I am sure, you are all in agreement with.

    To level this playing field we have in our hands the greatest weapon ever placed in the hands of the citizen, the activist and the consumer……the internet.

    Never before has one been able to, with the click of a mouse, expose to millions, nay, hundreds of millions, the crimes and excesses of madmen and their enablers.

    So…with that in mind….let us click mice…….lots and lots and lots of mice….be creative in your clicking…..let the squeakage of millions of mice be a symphony of retribution….send emails, cancel accounts, call advertisers, call the numbers listed here and the the other posts on this blog relevant to the outrageous and criminal actions of The Journal News…..call them at night….call them in the morning…call them at their offices……but don’t, repeat don’t….call them Sally.

    Let us start with the board of directors and the senior corporate echelons of the Gannet Inc crew….owners of the Journal News.

    Be creative…..look for all the personal information you can find on these men and women and post it to this blog and to a mind numbing multiplicity of other blogs……give it to your dog, tell your children a bed time story about their personal info……sky-write it….write it on toilet walls………do as I know each and every one of you yearns to do……….run, be free……and click, click, click…..

  9. It would be entertaining to discover the end result on local gun sales in those NY counties since release of that information. I’d bet those neighbors who were inadvertendly exposed as gun-free-households (by default) will be doing a bit of post holiday home defense shopping.
    I reside just due north of the reported area and I can confirm local gun shops as well as major retailers like Walmart & Dicks Sporting goods have significantly increased ammo and weapon sales since the heinous pre-Christmas carnage at Sandy Hook Elementary (due east). Cyndee Royle, Janet Hasson and the Journal News inadvertently provided major incentive to boost gun sales beyond their wildest nightmares. Ha ha ha.

  10. Oh oh!!!……looks like there’s trouble in Dullsville…..

    Look whose attention the Journal-News has now….

    http://www.stormfront.org/forum/t934805-2/

    The real lunatic whack-jobs are now focused on the Journal -News….

    I wonder if the “Princess of the Pole”…..stripper Cyndee Royle and her little partner in crime will be all smiles and giggles when a couple of bald guys with funny little tattoos come goose-stepping up their driveways……….coffee, tea or Zyklon-B ?????

    I bet old Tenzin Gyatso is laughing his ass off over the karmic reverberations on this one……
