As I recall it wasn’t so much of an app as a method that the parasites who support Obama could denounce their more respectable neighbors.

You’re definately right Nomad, fortunately, pretty much all the citizens on my block voted for the American

Here’s a good argument: Why I am Opposed to Background Checks

There are 20 dead children and teachers! What difference does it make if the map was correct or not? We must act to make sure nothing like that ever happens again!

Welcome to the new, unplugged [from reality] world of leftism.

There is no excuse for someone else doing your journalism for you.

About ten years ago I got ticked off enough to write a letter to the Editor of my local paper. They published the letter, but before they did, they called me to verify that I was indeed the author, etc. So, I’m guessing that this newspaper likely does more backround work on letters to the Editor than they did on this important “news” piece.

Yeah. 25 years ago I wrote a letter to the editor, which they published. It was in response to an opinion column published earlier. I got a personal letter days later in the mail with all sorts of predictable ad hominems, written by a third party who was an occasional contributor to the paper. I assume that he was able to call his friends in the editor’s office and get my home address without any trouble.

I now comment online anonymously.

So it’s okay to endanger the right citizens

When the mask slips like this, it’s really informative. It’s obvious that the writer implicitly believes it’s OK to endanger “the right” citizens.

Lying is Ok too as long as it supports the agenda.

Surely this sort of thing doesn’t exist with the Voter Registration rolls – does it?

I recently discovered that in Virginia the voter registration files are regularly purged by cross referencing death certificate information.

The map wildly overstated the number of active gun permits, and it turns out the newspaper didn’t bother to verify any of their information.

LAWSUIT!

While there’s a reasonable debate about whether gun permit ownership should be public information, there is no upside to transparency when it endangers the wrong citizens.

Presumably this means there is upside when the RIGHT citizens are endangered…?

What’s next, public information on where all the Jews live? Mandatory police searches of private homes to determine if the guns really are where the records say they are? Maybe public lists of where all the Republicans are located.

Gun ownership is a civil right. There is no question that this is not public information.

Can you imagine the outrageous outrage if they had published the locations of all gay people (both closeted and not) or every liberal democrat?

and at the same time come up with a cool graphic

A reporter from our state’s largest circulation paper told me one time that they used a full-color graphic for their weather forecast even though the plainer text-only version was more up-to-date. Reason? Simple: the less reliable version looked better.
