I enjoy controlling the impression I make on nosey people slackmaster Dec 2012 #5
HA!!, I knew some nitwit would say that, didn't think it would only take 4 posts though. crazyjoe Dec 2012 #45
Well, answwer the question then. What do you have to hide. BlueStreak Dec 2012 #48
I think there's a little fourth amentment left. rrneck Dec 2012 #76
This is neither a search nor a seizure. Again, what do you have to hide? BlueStreak Dec 2012 #81
Searches are conducted to secure incriminating evidence. Seizures secure the evidence. rrneck Dec 2012 #82
It is public record ... BlueStreak Dec 2012 #94
I don't have to make such a claim. rrneck Dec 2012 #111
If you have a gun, you are, by definition, a danger BlueStreak Dec 2012 #113

I Hope You Understand That I'm All For Publishing This Information ...... global1 Dec 2012 #7
The FFs didn't anticipate computers or the Internet either, yet the First Amendment still applies. slackmaster Dec 2012 #8
So all government data should be published? Like names of people receiving public assistance? hack89 Dec 2012 #53
All kinds of information is readily available abelenkpe Dec 2012 #58
So lists of people on public assistance should be in the paper? nt hack89 Dec 2012 #64
I don't know are they? abelenkpe Dec 2012 #67
Is there any limit on what personal information the government can publish? hack89 Dec 2012 #69
I answered your question abelenkpe Dec 2012 #71
You must have loved the Patriot Act and the Terrorist watch list. hack89 Dec 2012 #72
What is wrong with the notion that all public information should be public? hack89 Dec 2012 #73
When did I say I was afraid of total transparency? abelenkpe Dec 2012 #78
So any information on any potential threat is your standard? hack89 Dec 2012 #80
OMG abelenkpe Dec 2012 #86
Publishing the address of someone who might be hiding from an abusive spouse is one reason. randome Dec 2012 #89

Hey they publish sexual preditors list. aandegoons Dec 2012 #11
There are many Web sites where you can get that informatoin slackmaster Dec 2012 #12
As there also should be for gun hoarders. aandegoons Dec 2012 #13
Your false equivalency is an epic fail. Collecting guns isn't a crime. slackmaster Dec 2012 #15
And sexual preditors already paid for their crime. aandegoons Dec 2012 #24
If you carry water for sexual predators, you too are a sexual predator slackmaster Dec 2012 #29
Interesting. aandegoons Dec 2012 #37
something better? I thought that was perfect :-) crazyjoe Dec 2012 #46
You are wrong. Jenoch Dec 2012 #52
Sexual predators are criminals. proud2BlibKansan Dec 2012 #22
They already paid for their crime. aandegoons Dec 2012 #25
And the likelihood of them re-offending is very high proud2BlibKansan Dec 2012 #27
And the liklihood that legally obtained guns will be used to kill innocent people is also high RomneyLies Dec 2012 #30
Of 300,000,000 guns, there were 8,583 firearms used to kill people in 2011. X_Digger Dec 2012 #65

How high? Jackpine Radical Dec 2012 #31
How high is high enough? BlueStreak Dec 2012 #49
My question had nothing to do with guns. Jackpine Radical Dec 2012 #50
I assume you've looked at the numbers, too? X_Digger Dec 2012 #60
Yes, I'm pretty much up to date on all that. Jackpine Radical Dec 2012 #119
You have my full support, for whatever value it serves. X_Digger Dec 2012 #121
As is the likely hood of a gun nutter gunning down children. aandegoons Dec 2012 #35
I'm curious. Is "painfully stupid" just an expression, or are you actually in some discomfort? 11 Bravo Dec 2012 #47
