| A White Plains home on handgun permit database burglarized. Officials say the target of the burglary was the homeowner´s gun case. Police are trying to determine if the break-in was a result of the homeowner´s name and address being published by the Journal News last month, along with thousands of other registered gun owners.

My guess is that this may be a hoax. Nothing out of the ordinary here. Possibly if the burglary is a "legitimate" burglary perhaps the perp did not read the gun permit database. No big deal and evidently the guns did the homeowner no good. Am I for gun confiscation? Of course not.

We need to call what the newspaper did a loophole. Public disclosure loophole, or something similar.

It´s time for the Anita Hill mantra with regard to the newspaper not protecting the identities in the database: It´s the seriousness of the charge, not the nature of the evidence.
Sue, baby, sue!

First of all, it is tough to prove that the home was burglarized and the gun case was targeted solely because of the map, unless the burglar left behind a copy of the newspaper or the online equivalent.. Doesn´t mean it didn´t happen but just saying suing may not be that easy. That a newspaper would do this despite the risk that a law abiding citizen might get hurt by criminals looking for guns and that it´s OK for that gun owner to get hurt just because they think owning a gun is morally repugnant, shows both folly and disregard for other human beings. Do they think that gun owners do not have innocent children who might be hurt by home invasions that the irresponsible publishing of addresses encourage? Or do they think that children of gun owners deserve to be victimized as well?
The amount of incivility from the Left is astounding. It is as if they do not think conservatives or gun owners have a right to be alive. Their hatred, which they project onto their political opponents, are so vile and absolutely abysmal that it is no surprise if many liberals end up depressed and bitter people.

As far as the Journal News is concerned, it´s a feature, not a bug. One gets the impression that per their worldview, anyone who owns a gun deserves to have it stolen. And used on the owner.

As another poster noted, you don´t have to "prove" to sue--as long as you have enough to avoid being patently frivolous, you can file any suit you want to--and each party generally winds up paying their own costs. And most generally, suits are settled, and are a pain in the posterior for the party being sued. So in this case, I would say sue away...

The Journal News(sic) is a Gannett Co.
You don´t have to sue to hurt them. Stop going to USA Today´s website. If you subscribe to a Gannett ´´paper´´, cancel your subscription. If you stay at a hotel/motel that gives you a ´´free´´ USA Today, tell them you would prefer a Wall Street Journal.
This is war, folks and guerilla actions work, too.

Why aren´t people who don´t have guns suing? The perps can steal guns from the map and go next door to rob the ones with no protection. Maybe they have bought guns. One woman said her parents are on the list but they are dead and someone else lives in the house now. Nice goin´ Jounal News.

This would be a much better story if all the homes not advertised as gun owner homes were the ones that got robbed.
As far as the suit goes; of course a Lawyer will want to sue the paper as that is where the money is. But I think ruining the personal life of the responsible reporter would do more to stop these types of reports in the future. A reporter might actually think twice before publishing something with their name on it.
Meh, maybe not.

In this hilltop suburb of Salt Lake City, where a vista of white spires signals a concentration of Mormons and their churches, it is a given that every boy will become a Cub Scout at 8 and then a Boy Scout at 11. With mutual exaltation of God and country and a shared aim of nurturing “morally straight” men with leadership skills and a service ethic, the Mormons and the Boy Scouts seem made for each other, as entwined as a square knot.

The private equity giants Blackstone Group and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts are longtime rivals that compete for multibillion-dollar deals. But during last decade’s buyout boom, according to newly released e-mails in a civil lawsuit accusing them of collusion, the two firms appeared to be on much cozier terms. In September 2006, for instance, Blackstone and K.K.R. were both circling the technology giant Freescale Semiconductor. After a Blackstone group outbid a K.K.R. consortium to buy Freescale for nearly $18 billion, Hamilton E. James, the president of Blackstone, e-mailed his colleagues

For the first time since researchers began tracking the religious identity of Americans, fewer than half said they were Protestants, a steep decline from 40 years ago when Protestant churches claimed the loyalty of more than two-thirds of the population. A new study released on Tuesday by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life found that it was not just liberal mainline Protestants, like Methodists or Episcopalians, who abandoned their faith, but also more conservative evangelical and “born again” Protestants.

The tale of Asimco Technologies, an auto parts manufacturer whose plants dot eastern China, would seem to underscore Mitt Romney’s campaign-trail complaint that China’s manufacturing juggernaut is costing America jobs. Nine years ago, the company bought two camshaft factories that employed about 500 people in Michigan. By 2007 both were shut down.

Two days before the first presidential debate, a new national survey indicates a very close contest between President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney in the race for the White House. And according to a CNN/ORC International poll, neither candidate appears to have an edge on the economy, which remains the top issue on the minds of Americans and which may dominate Wednesday night's debate on domestic issues in Denver.

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

The Seattle Police Department collected more than 700 guns during a buyback in January, and now city officials have a plan for what to do with them. Mayor Mike McGinn is expected to announce Tuesday that they´ll be melted into bricks carrying messages of peace, and the bricks will be placed around the city. The buyback program was announced a month after last December´s elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn., by city leaders sick of hearing about gun violence.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford completed the trail to political redemption Tuesday with a win over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch to reclaim his old seat in Congress. Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001. It’s a remarkable comeback for a man many pundits had written off after his highly publicized affair with an Argentine

From the start, the Obama administration’s account of what happened in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11 last year didn’t quite square for Sharyl Attkisson. So the veteran CBS News reporter dug in, and kept digging. The result: Attkisson has been a persistent voice of news-media skepticism about the government’s story. On the air and online, Attkisson has questioned the administration’s timeline and its response. (Snip) While other media, particularly Fox News, have been similarly skeptical about the official narrative about Benghazi, Attkisson and CBS might put the story in a different light.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) on states nullifying federal gun laws: I mean, let´s look at the context of nullification. Nullification was last used by Southern states to try to eviscerate Civil Rights legislation, to try to prevent states from basically enforcing desegregation and frankly, I think history will look back on this round of nullification as kindly as it did on the last round. It is laughable also because it is a total bastardization of the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment is not an absolute right, not a God given right, always had conditions upon
