Gawker Publishes Complete 446-Page List of ‘All the ***h^les Who Own Guns in New York City’
The Blaze ^ | January 8, 2013 | Jason Howerton

Editor’s note: This post contains some strong language that may be offensive to some readers.

The website Gawker has outdone New York’s “Journal News” and published the names of all licensed gun owners in New York City. With the provocative headline, “Here Is a List of All the A**holes Who Own Guns in New York City,” John Cook provides a 446-page list of every licensed gun owner in NYC, obtained two-and-a-half years ago via a Freedom of Information Act request.

“Below is a 446-page list of every licensed gun owner in New York City…Because the NYPD is more interested in raping and/or eating ladies and spying on Muslims than it is in honoring public records law, the list contains only the names, and not the addresses, of the licensees,” Cook writes.

The Journal News sparked outrage when it published the names and addresses of pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland Counties. The paper wanted to also publish the information of gun owners in Putnam County, N.Y., but so far the county has refused, saying providing the information would put the public in danger.

As Cook correctly points out, section 400.00 of the Penal Law of New York, entitled “Licenses to carry, possess, repair and dispose of firearms,” makes addresses of licensed gun owners public information. “The name and address of any person to whom an application for any license has been granted shall be a public record,” the law states....

tips@gawker.com is their tips weblink. I sent them several messages that ended in GFY. We could shut down their Tips Site with enough messages. They seem like scum.

Brilliant./s

Sucks for the Conservatives, but if they want to keep doing this and drive more libs to the center/right, I’ll take it.

Not like we can stop them.

“A**-wholes”

The lost tribe of NY...Senaca, Cayuga, Onondoga, Onieda, Mohawk and “A**-wholes”

Though I doubt the tribes would want most of them.

John Cook. I will remember this name. If I develop a dread disease and there’s no more point, he’s the last person I will visit. It is important to visit Nazis.

The fearsome Nowipee clan was the worst. No one could best them in close, hand-to-hand combat. They kept to themselves.

I’d rather people say “ass-h” than “A-hole”. When someone says “A-hole” all I can see is a rectum. Someone could say “I met this guy who’s a real A-hole and he won the lottery and says he’s going to give you half.” I wouldn’t hear anything after “A-hole”.

* the 8m+ people on disability

I believe it was them who drove the Fucowiee out of the state. No one has seen them sence, but occasionally you run into someone looking for them.

I ran into an Ent tree shepherd in city park the other day, still looking for their wives, poor guy.
Muncie’s a ‘Tree City’, we all sport wood, yep yep. Oh, I sent ‘Treebeard’ to a house of low morals on Walnut St.
Not that I’ve been there.

So, every time someone is shot in NYC, the Police have a list of the Usual Suspects available at their fingertips.

When a Gun Murder is solved, I am sure that one of the people on that list will be incarcerated, thus reducing the number of “licensed” Gun Owners in New York.

Furthermore, I will make the stretch that 90% PLUS of those listed are Democrats, supporting the Party that has no qualms about taking away the Constitutional Rights of the “average” American, average being someone who is not part of the NYC Elite.

If the Police arrest anyone not currently on that list for using a Firearm, the entire Bloomberg Gun Control policy is proven to be a failure, which of course it is.
