| Gun owners map |
Apparently at least one blogger has posted his own map showing locations of all the news reporters homes and even pictures of some of their children and where they attend school. This has caused many of them to receive death threats and some have had to flee after receiving a white powder in the mail (even though it turned out to be harmless). The News Paper is having to pay for some of the reporters to stay in hotels because they are afraid to return home.
One of the most baffling aspects of this story is the news agency has posted armed guards at their offices to protect themselves....this I truly don't understand, why not just create a 'Gun Free Zone' around their office ?
All this does make you wonder, it there is this much backlash over the publishing of a gun owners map in a couple of counties in a liberal state like NY what kind of backlash would we see if the government tried a gun ban across the entire country.

Just goes to show, there are two laws in this country.
ReplyDeleteOne for the elites and one for us.
Matt, It is funny how they react when they get a taste of their own medicine.
DeleteMy guess is the News Paper didn't like "taste of that poisionous cake".
ReplyDeleteSandy, I guess not. Thanks.
DeleteUnintended consequences.
ReplyDeleteRobert, you said it. That would make a good title for a book.
DeleteI wonder about the death threats... Why are we NOT hearing about arrests, etc.??? You'd think they would be prosecuting those folks!
ReplyDeleteOld NFO, my guess is they don't have any proof yet as to who was doing it.
DeleteI live in the liberal/communist state of IL and have witnessed 65 to70 people take the ccw class in the last week. yes this is in a rual area(town pop 1200). just under half of these people were female and we dont even have concealed or any other type of carry yet.there are lots of people falling off the fence to our side
ReplyDeleteCrane op, It is true the liberals have done more to further the gun culture than would ever have happened if they had not tried to pull all this junk.
DeleteRegarding the threats, last I heard they gave a vaguely worded email to the police and called it a threat. The police didn't agree at all. I'm not sure if it is all in their head and they're trying to make their own point that gun owners are dangerous. I sure haven't seen or heard actual proof of this.
ReplyDelete45er, I'm sure if there was a legitimate threat someone would have been shot.
DeleteThey had the first break in of one the houses on the map. They specifically went for the gun safe. No luck and thankfully the elderly owner was not at home.
ReplyDeleteStill NOT good.
Brigid, it isn't good, I wouldn't mind the break in as long as I knew ahead of time :)
