A newspaper chain plans to assemble a state-by-state database of every person permitted to carry a concealed weapon.
Freedom under attack: A newspaper chain plans to assemble a state-by-state database of every person permitted to carry a concealed weapon.
The CEO of the chain has released a statement saying that
[Civitas Media] never had any plans or intentions of publishing in print or online lists of holders of “conceal and carry” permits. Nor will Civitas Media develop databases of permit holders. A poorly crafted internal memo meant to highlight editorial discussions and planning incorrectly indicated that such a database was being planned; it has been considered and rejected.
Maybe so, but that such an idea was even considered by some of the company’s editors tells you a great deal about what those editors believe in, and it surely isn’t privacy, the second amendment, or personal rights.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

What kind of list might be able to be assembled in regards to that news paper chain? One list deserves another list, one Constitutional right against the other Constitutional right.
I don’t have a CCW permit, but perhaps those that do can go all John Hancock on the paper.
Be Aware. This measure is a Long Step towards Listing guns and a Signed Leap at Confiscating Them.
Create a website listing names and addresses of all non gun-owning newspaper editors/publishers specifically highlighting that the below listed addresses do NOT have firearms on the premises. It’s every burglar’s dream. I
I thought I had read/heard a story in 2013 about a newspaper that HAD ALREADY published such a list in some geographic area.

I haven’t done the follow-up, but please do before you act on this or rant at anyone. I don’t have time today to see how this all played out.
