Liberals don't care how they achieve results....Just look at the way the health care bill passed.
Why are you surprised?
Now if fox news published a list of food stamp or welfare recipients the liberals would be outraged.

But, but ... You guys have claimed for years that the best way to avoid bad guys is for those bad guys to know that you have guns in the home.
Don't these lists just provide another, surer layer of protection for gun owners from the bad guys??
Were you just kidding before??

QUOTE It was irresponsible and immoral for the newspaper to print this IMO. I agree with you on that but doesn't it ultimately work in your favor? Now you have another talking point in your railing against gun registration. That is correct sir. Glad you now realize one of the problems with registration and the unintended consequences that relate to it.

This doesn't outweigh the benefit of registration by any stretch of the imagination.

How's it unreasonable when it's perfectly legal to purchase firearms without a background check or registration? You guys keep whining about these incidents all being caused by the mentally ill but your schizophrenic neighbor can easily buy firearms from you with no background check.

The same way it's reasonable to vote without an ID.

The media bullying facet of that action is troubling.
Perhaps it would be mitigated a bit if they led off the list with every name and current address of every single newspaper employee and owner that possessed such.

I'm not entirely sure what the purpose of publishing the list was in the first place - because they could I guess. Have they given some sort of public interest justification?

Revealing people's identity and such personal information as their (and their children's) home address is classic bullying. Which I'm always uncomfortable with even in a seemingly "good" cause; Megan's Laws.
Firearm possession is viewed as something to be punished, having solicited a sex worker or having been convicted (or accused?) as a sex offender or having failed to pay library fines or traffic tickets legality aside whatever they're antagonistic to, so as a form of aggression there's outing them and thus exposing the target to possible negative consequences that the outers deem is "deserved". . Public "shaming" goes back centuries as a tactic of community intimidation. That's what the Colonial era Stocks were about. That in the process they've revealed a whole lot of retired law enforcement people's locations is jut collateral damage to the cause. Though it is a puzzle why retired police would think having firearms would increase their personal security? You'd think all their professional experience would have exposed them to the self evident truth the anti-gun movement holds dear: that firearms are irredeemably dangerous and irrelevant as well as antithetical to personal security.

How about we hold accountable idiots who don't lock their guns in a safe and then have their guns stolen?

If they lock the firearm in their home and someone steals it then it's their fault?
If they lock the firearm in a safe and someone breaks into the safe is it still their fault?

What is stunning is the hypocrisy of the newspaper.
When another paper decided to teach them a lesson and publish the names and addresses of their editors, etc. they arranged for ARMED PROTECTION because they were scared

Well, it makes more sense than your position of having as many guns as a person can afford in the home, with no registration and no licensing.
If you think that they are likely to be stolen, why would you do that??

You do not have to be a rocket scientist to see how announcing to the world that someone has valuables in their home increases their chances of being robbed.
But maybe you have to be smarter than some anti gun nuts
This lady gets it right
