Yeah, that kind of shit advances the cause... NOT!

I hear you.....but the editor maliciously printed that information with the intent to create fear and uncertainty in those owning firearms, she invaded their privacy and potentially put them in harms way.

She received as she gave....fortunately it was just poo.

That part makes it sound as if you wish it had been 'more', which disturbs me...'more' than just a little.

Have ANY of the aggrieved firearms owners filed claims against said person? I'd recommend small claims court. A couple hundred suits at the legal maximum of the court, would be much more effective, and less harmful to "the cause" than packages of poo-poo, or - as you seem to advocate - worse.

Are there NO 'right wing' "Ambulance Chasers"?

I continue to be impressed by your example. With all the hand-wringing & teeth-gnashing going on that "kinder/gentler" avatar thing is really workin' for you.

Court: NYTimes's Request for New York City Gun Owners Violates Law
As did the previous release of a list of gun owners.
11:56 AM, Feb 5, 2013 • By DANIEL HALPER



A New York appellate court has ruled that the New York Times's request for a list of gun owners in New York City, under the Freedom of Information Law, violates the state's statute. The ruling overturns in part a lower court's ruling.

"Order and judgment (one paper), Supreme Court, New York County (Jane S. Solomon, J.), entered November 1, 2011, granting the petition to the extent it sought an order directing respondent, under the Freedom of Information Law (Public Officers Law § 84 et seq.) (FOIL), to provide an electronic copy of a database, as redacted, of names and addresses of New York City residents who have been granted handgun licenses, and a database, to be redacted, of hate crimes reported to respondent from January 1, 2005 to the present, and denying the petition to the extent it sought an order directing respondent to provide an electronic copy of its crime incident database, a declaration that respondent's practices in responding to FOIL requests violate the statute, and an order directing respondent to cease these practices, unanimously modified, on the law, to deny the petition as to the databases of handgun licensees and hate crimes and to reinstate the petition with respect to the demand for the crime incident database, insofar as it seeks production of the electronic crime incident database produced in Floyd v City of New York (08 Civ 01034 [SAS] [US Dist Ct, SD NY]) (the Floyd database), and the matter remitted to Supreme Court for a determination of whether production of the Floyd database should be ordered, and, if so, to what extent and under what conditions, and otherwise affirmed, without costs," reads the ruling.

She's the anti-gun publisher that recently passed along every concealed carry gun owner and their address, from her county, in her newspaper, for ALL to see. .......soooooo let's return the favor!

Technically, she is the CEO of Gannett which owns several papers, one of which is the paper that published the names/addresses of CCW owners.

I don't know how to repost it but I hope to see that image you posted passed around more often.

Newspaper that published the address' of all gun owners in two counties, just laid off 26 employees.

Could it be because after their little "stunt", people cancelled subscriptions, or just refused to buy their rag and that advertisers pulled their adds and the paper LOST money could be the cause? :munchin
