| A gossip site has taken the controversial decision to post the name of every licensed gun owner in New York City online as the debate over gun control rages on. Gawker posted the list of names, which is already publicly available, today. It follows the move by the Journal News to publish home addresses of gun permit owners in Westchester and Rockland counties last month.(Snip) The 446-page document is readily available from the NYPD with a Freedom of Information Law request - but contains only the names of gun owners and not addresses. However a secondary list exists online

Comments: A quick check shows creep supreme Chuckles Schumer is not listed, so it appears this list (like the one run a few years ago in another state) has been scrubbed to protect the chosen few.
And oh, I bet it rankled the anti-gun NYPD to release this list.

I wish Vaclav Havel were alive to write a "theatre of the absurd" play about this madness. For the record, I hope our local paper DOES publish the names and addresses of all the gun owners in Arizona. I´ll be on the list. If any dumb@$$ burglar is scoping my neighborhood and has the list in hand, I´ll be bypassed.

So far nobody´s tried to publish a list of Texas registered gun owners. Good thing, it would probably cause a paper shortage, LONG list!
Oops ... forgot ... we Don´t Have such a list in Texas because we don´t register our guns.

Thieves will target homes where they know guns are located, waiting until the owners are away at work, and trash the place looking for them.
The usual Peeping Tom anti-gun liberals at work will see your name on The List and immediately you´re viewed as if you were a pedophile and your career is derailed.
Whee, who wouldn´t want to be on such a list?

Most states allow gun owners to transport their weapons in their cars if, for instance, going from a gun range back home or from home to a gun range. Guess a lot of people will be transporting in that fashion, should they be asked. And gun owners will just take them with them and not leave them home. I would even post a sign. Gun on premises when owner present. Feeling lucky? And many will now go get Concealed carry permits if they don´t already have them.

Since no member of the National Rifle Association shot or murdered any school children, Batman movie goers, or anyone at a Tucson political rally and since liberals, democrats and other mentally ill/defective people don’t join the NRA what are these crazy people squealing about for greater gun control? Won’t that make it harder for them to….wait….wait…..get a gun? All this is going to do is tick them off when they cannot get their way or they get their feelings hurt and then they go berserk.
Let’s see: presidential assassinations and attempts? All of them liberals and anarchists.
Other mass murderers? Liberals, democrats and other mentally ill/defective people.
Workplace killings? Liberals and other mentally ill/defective people who get ticked off at work, kill their fellow workers and then kill themselves.
Rampage killers? Liberals, democrats and other mentally ill/defective people who get ticked off at something, kill indiscriminately, and then kill themselves.
Rampage killers at schools? Liberals, democrats and other mentally ill/defective people who get ticked off at someone at school, kill indiscriminately, and then kill themselves.
Not an NRA member in the bunch, going back over a 150 years. Please note, had there been even a single known NRA member commiting mayhem it would be all over the press.
The problem, if you look at the historical record of mass murderers and political assassinations and attempts, the perpetrators are LIBERALS! Liberalism is the disease.

You know,the left is trying to turn this into a war on the NRA,their latest planetary villain.They figure all gun owners are members and have been brainwashed by their magazine.
This is another Alinski action against one of their enemies. Target,freeze and the rest is a breeze.
They´re to stupid to realize that gun ownership and 2nd amendment are cherished by a lot more people than NRA members.
This rag and the other that printed names and locations of gun owners think they can stand behind a right to public records which is not a license to put people´s property and safety at risk. Hopefully there´s a class action lawsuit by all these victimized people.

Personal disclaimer: (feel free to flame me ...)
It ripped my heart out to hear of the massacre in Newtown; 20 children and six adults slaughtered. I cannot imagine the horror and pain experienced by those whose lives were irreparably changed on that horrific day. That said, how many children are killed daily by car wrecks, accidental entanglement with window blind cords, or poisonings, not to mention abuse at the hands of their loved ones.
Why are we turning this country inside-out over this incident - committed by an insane person who had no. legal. right. to have a firearm?
We don´t need gun control; we need crazy people control

#17, ´WE´ aren´t. The LPs are as a political war on America - in order to take over they have to disarm us. This is a war, it just isn´t currently a hot war because the LPs are out-numbered and they can do the math. Since you have to ask the question, you haven´t awakened to that little fact yet. Unfortunately you have a lot of somnolent company that better wake up before they win.

Nashville, Tenn. - A proposal that would dock the welfare payments of parents whose children fail school is dead. After about a 40-minute debate on the Senate floor Thursday, Republican Senator Sponsor Stacey Campfield decided to pull the bill so it can be studied over the summer. Both Republicans and Democrats expressed concern about the legislation, which sought to cut Temporary Assistance for Needy Families benefits by 30 percent if a child fails to advance to the next grade. The money could be earned back if a parent attends two conferences with teachers, takes parenting classes or enrolls the child in

New Jersey districts spent an average of $18,047 per pupil in 2011-12, up 4 percent from the year before, the state said Wednesday. That figure comes from the third annual “Taxpayer’s Guide to Education Spending,” which uses a method devised by the Christie administration to give residents a full picture of the price tag for schools from pre-kindergarten through Grade 12. (Snip) Among regular Bergen districts, total per-pupil spending ranged from a high of $25,938 in the small, wealthy and high-achieving district of Alpine to $13,317 in the immigrant, blue-collar community of Fairview.

A federal injunction seeks to shut down Memphis-based Mo’ Money Taxes. The government contends tax losses from fraudulent tax returns prepared by the firm in 2011 cost the IRS more than $9 million. The U.S. Justice Department has long had an eye on Mo’ Money and the tax preparation business. The focus intensified last year after hundreds of Mo’ Money clients in several states alleged bounced checks, excessive fees and the failure of the business to pass along IRS refunds.

New York — Cookie Monster stands accused of shoving a 2-year-old. Super Mario was charged with groping a woman. And Elmo was booked for berating tourists with anti-Semitic slurs. Times Square is crawling with entrepreneurs who dress up as pop-culture characters and try to make a few bucks posing for photos with visitors to the big city. But some of these characters are unlike anything you´ve seen on "Sesame Street" or at Disney World. They smoke, they use foul language, and they can be aggressive. At least three of them have been arrested in the past seven months.

New York — As many doctors struggle to keep their practices financially sound, some are buckling under money woes and being pushed into bankruptcy. It´s a trend that´s accelerated in recent years, industry experts say, with potentially serious consequences for doctors and patients. Some physicians are still able to keep practicing after bankruptcy, but for others, it´s a career-ending event. And when a practice shuts its doors, patients can find it harder to get the health care they need nearby.

Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.
