| Law enforcement officials from a New York region where a local paper published a map identifying gun owners say prisoners are using the information to intimidate guards. Rockland County Sheriff Louis Falco, who spoke at a news conference flanked by other county officials, said the Journal News´ decision to post an online map of names and addresses of handgun owners Dec. 23 has put law enforcement officers in danger. "They have inmates coming up to them and telling them exactly where they live. That´s not acceptable to me," Falco said, according to Newsday.

I say that every gun owner on that list that suffers a break-in, burglary, or theft sue the daylights out of those idiots at the Journal News as well as the Journal News itself along with Gannet, the parent company. The consequences of this irresponsible article could get someone seriously injured or killed. Further, any company doing business with the Journal News or Gannet should seriously reevaluate that relationship.

One thinks of the tiny brains of the staff at that Journal...meeting and saying, "hey, why don´t we do this..."
The human tragedy. Continues.

Inmates are full of baloney, they will avoid houses with guns like the plague because most of them are cowards, I´d be more worried about the houses they know are unarmed.

the Journal News could conceivably be held responsible for B&E at homes of either gun owners or non-gun owners. In both instances the bad guys know exactly where to shop, depending upon their needs and comfort level. Jewelry, money and electronics or weapons...

Can someone please explain to me why inmates have access to the Internet? I guess it must be a violation of their constitutional rights not to.
Give me a break.

Message to guards:
Document everything. Be especially careful to note any threats that include references to the newspaper. Dates, times, places, inmate names, nature of the threats.
Keep it in a safe place, up to date, and be sure a loved one knows where it is located.

Sure #4, 99% of inmates will do nothing with this knowledge. But would you feel good about inmates knowing your address if you were in the LE career field in those counties? They won´t come to your house when your there, it will be while your at work. While your family is sleeping, or maybe not at all, thats the power of the threat these inmates are using.

Maybe inmates dont have internet access (although my guess is that they do in law library settings), but what´s probably happening is that folks from outside the prison (family, gang member friends, etc.) are feeding that information to the inmates to use to harass the guards.

Worked for and retired from the prison system after 33 years. Hearing "I know where you live" was a common threat from inmates. My response was to tell his Momma where he wants to be buried before he leaves home.

How about those, #10, who are now revealed to have no guns for protection? Are they supposed to smile and say "Here! Take anything you want!" and expect they and their family not to be harmed? As a corrections officer, I would assume, as the cons probably do, that you would be armed and ready. No such luck for those who aren´t able to defend themselves.

#6 - How about "why is there a list to be gotten?"
I think it a very very GOOD thing that law enforcement officers name and addresses got released. It´s not as though that information is terribly secret or "classified". Now they get to walk in our shoes too, and it´s they´re own fault for making the list.

http://christopherfountain.wordpress.com/tag/janet-hasson-journal-news/
....print out that article, take it to work with them and then accidentally drop it where prison inmates could easily retrieve it!
If they did, some prison inmates might just discover that the publisher, Janet Hasson, lives in a $1.4 MILLION-dollar home at
3 Gate House Lane, Mamaroneck, NY 10534.
They also might discover the links to pictures of Janet Hasson´s home at....
http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3-Gate-House-Ln-Mamaroneck-NY-10543/33051179_zpid/
....as well as the information that Janet Hasson is unarmed!
Wouldn´t that be terrible?
Gosh, I sure hope that doesn´t happen.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Is the tea party getting its groove back? Shouts of vindication from around the country suggest the movement´s leaders certainly think so. They say the IRS acknowledgement that it had targeted their groups for extra scrutiny — a claim that tea party activists had made for years — is helping pump new energy into the coalition. And they are trying to use that development, along with the ongoing controversy over the Benghazi, Libya, terrorist attacks and the Justice Department´s secret seizure of journalists´ phone records, to recruit new activists incensed about government overreach.

Several major cases will be decided by the Supreme Court over the next six weeks, including historic issues such as gay marriage and affirmative action. These cases make the remainder of the Court’s term—which ends in June—one of the most carefully watched terms by millions of Americans. In addition to several significant cases that have already been decided this year, the justices of the High Court have at least ten important issues to decide before adjourning for the summer.

Since his emergence as a national political figure, Barack Obama has managed to deflect accusations of wrongdoing and impropriety with ease. Republicans on Capitol Hill are determined to put that to an end by making him pay for the unfolding scandal at the Internal Revenue Service. “Ultimately responsibility lies with the president. Obama has spent the better part of the last five years doing non-stop campaigning,” says a senior Republican Senate aide who points to the administration’s larger pattern of “using political offices to intimidate and harrass” its opponents. “When bureaucrats see the leader

“And the war will end by the end of next year .?.?. ” In the elusive search for an Obama Doctrine, that struck me as a telling phrase when I heard the president deliver it last week as he and British Prime Minister David Cameron took a couple of questions from reporters. Obama was speaking about the withdrawal of U.S. and allied combat troops from Afghanistan by the end of 2014. “Our troops will continue to come home, and the war will end,” he said. In fact, the war is unlikely to end. It may well accelerate as the Taliban

When the Justice Department began investigating possible leaks of classified information about North Korea in 2009, investigators did more than obtain telephone records of a working journalist suspected of receiving the secret material. They used security badge access records to track the reporter’s comings and goings from the State Department, according to a newly obtained court affidavit. They traced the timing of his calls with a State Department security adviser suspected of sharing the classified report. They obtained a search warrant for the reporter’s personal e-mails. The case

In early 2010, an Internal Revenue Service team in Cincinnati began noticing a stream of applications from groups with political-sounding names, setting in motion a dragnet aimed at separating legitimate tax-exempt groups from those working to get candidates elected. The IRS officials decided to single out one type of political group for particular scrutiny. “These cases involve various local organizations in the Tea Party movement,” read one internal IRS e-mail sent at the time. A few hours north in Fremont, Ohio, the owners of a drainage supply shop, Tom and Marion Bower, were wondering why it was taking so long

The White House´s chief lawyer learned weeks ago that an audit of the Internal Revenue Service likely would show that agency employees inappropriately targeted conservative groups, a senior White House official said Sunday. That disclosure has prompted a debate over whether the president should have been notified at that time. In the week of April 22, the Office of the White House Counsel and its head, Kathryn Ruemmler, were told by Treasury Department attorneys that an inspector general´s report was nearing completion, the White House official said. In that conversation, Ms. Ruemmler learned that "a small

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

WASHINGTON – White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said Sunday Republicans owe Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, an apology for alleging she played a part in formulating the White House’s response to the attacks in Benghazi, Libya, last year that killed four Americans. Pfeiffer said on ABC’s “This Week” that the release of more than 100 pages of Benghazi emails and notes show “beyond a shadow of the doubt” that accusations she tried to change the narrative of what happened in the attacks was false. "And, frankly, I think that many of the Republicans
