Releasing Gun Owners Names

[Texasjack]

The attorney general in Illinois, Lisa Madigan, is forcing the police to release the information on everyone licensed to have a gun in the state

Release Names of All Gun Owners

1. Thank God we live in Texas
2. I don't think I need to point out what political party put her in office.
3. If we don't pay attention, this can happen anywhere!
4. Repeat #1.

Illinois

Nuff said.

Great, now some gunowners have to worry about having their guns stolen because Ms. Madigen thinks she's making Illinois a safer place.

 

[Texan2]

I'm surprised someone hasnt published her home address and phone number along with a Google Maps link to give directions, with a disclaimer that she DOESN'T own any guns.

oh this is great.... it would create a shopping list for criminals. Just google the name or use a service like Spoeko.com and you'll get the persons address and you'll know what house to hit!

 

[crabbys44]

Another reason I'm glad I left Illinois for Texas!

 

[cuate]

The antis don't need a name and address to learn who many Texans are with guns, all they have to do is prowl around at night and try kicking in doors or crawling in windows uninvited ! The wages of "sin" (forceful entry & prowling) are death ! Race, Creed. & Color matter not.

i think this has a much greater chance of being abused by government and or law enforcement than it would the common criminal

AS far as I'm concerned, anyone willingly living in IL, NY, CA, or D.C. who has something unfortunate happen to them gets what they deserve. They know full well what kind of place they live in, yet choose to remain there anyway.

I wouldn't go so far as saying that they deserve what they get, but the sure don't have much room to bitch.

I guess I'm trying to say I don't have sympathy for people who intentionally do stupid things.

I once read a story from an LEO who saw a woman jogging into a bad neighborhood. He stopped her and told her it wasn't a good idea. She started running at the mouth about how liberated she was and how she didn't need a man telling her how to live her life, etc. About an hour later he was taking her statement about her rape.

Same thing with people in these states. They know the risks and consequences and choose to ignore them for stupid reasons.

 

[Texan2]

Whoever said "Being stupid should hurt" hit the nail on the head.

[Renegade]

I have a list of Texas Gun Owners. It is called the phone book.

 

[Clockwork]

Holy crap, is that lady retarded? All the time it surprises me less and less that my ex wife, a self-proclaimed "progressive socialist" has moved to Chicago. That is just plain ****ing stupid.

 

[matefrio]

Who here got their CHL when Texas kept the holders names public? Didn't a TX newspaper publish them?

 

[Patrón]

that is a fantastic idea.

Could have been me.

Ultimately that is the only thing these places are good for- acting as liberal Meccas and thinning their numbers in States which cherish liberty over the illusion of security.

This is really irritating when groups pressure the states to release these lists so they can publish them...

You don't see them publishing who gets an abortion. A list of everyone who has an electrician license, etc. It's just another anti gun tool to beat us over the head with.
