She thought she could shame gun owners, or make them targets.

 

Fair is fair: As many of you know the Journal News has again published the list of
pistol license holders for the lower Hudson Valley. Under state law,
this is public information.

You know what else is public information? The names, addresses and
phone numbers of Journal News staff.

What's good for the goose... is good for the gooser!!!!!!!

 

seems like an awful lot of permit holders for NYC

 

They like to do this with public employee salaries and overtime to, stop buying their news!!!

 

what exactly is the point of doing this? I don't get it?

 

In my opinion they did this in the wake of tragedy to shame gun owner's and to make our neighbors scared of having people with legal fire arms in their hometown. I know it is all public knowledge and anybody could have found out the information posted, but if it's in the public's face I bet they feel it would outrage them and work to the advantage of the state in banning "evil weapons"

 

it seems they have broken the law...

That's not a law. It's a bill that's been passed by the senate and stalled in the assembly (it died there last year).

 

Interesting how a bill was put in and stalled ​
