More on the Commercial Appeal
If a bill making it’s way through the capitol passes, it would be a crime to publish handgun carry permit records. In their attempt to crap on the second amendment, the Commercial Appeal has, ironically, crapped on the first amendment. Again, thank you. Without you, this wouldn’t have been possible. Pat yourselves on the back. You’ve done good work.
Michael Silence says: This is the unfortunate and predictable byproduct of a Memphis newspaper going for some page views. I mean, why not post the databases of sex offenders or home burglary rates for neighborhoods. The answer is simple: Those wouldn’t inflame a large number of law-abiding citizens.

How about making it a crime for your local, state or federal government pukes to release the information in the first place? The way I read this, they do something stupid, malicious and wrong, and we get punished for it.

Hell, I have been saying that the Commercial Appeal was doing this because they are attention whores for quite some time now. Thankfully, their childish behavior is helping along a law that will thoroughly slap them on their wrists… I wonder if it would be too much for me to send a basket of flowers to Chris Peck if/when the law passes.
