| Another home on Journal's gun owner map burglarized... (Posted on 1/17/13 at 1:14 pm)
quote:
Two handguns and two pistol permits were stolen from the New City home of a man whose name and address are listed on the website of a local newspaper as possessing gun permits, police said. The thieves ransacked the house Wednesday night, breaking into two safes on the home's third floor and stealing a third safe. The guns were in the stolen safe, police said. Clarkstown police said they had no evidence the burglary was connected to the controversial map.

We need a law against burglary. That way no one will rob anyone anymore.

Well, if guns were illegal then those guys couldn't have stolen them, right? It's the gun owners fault for having guns to begin with.

Like Willie Sutton said when asked why he robbed banks: "Because that's where the money is."

Isn't all permit info public record anyway? Couldn't someone who wanted to hit houses with guns just go to wherever the registry is to get the info?

Yes... But there is def a difference between a devoted criminal taking the time and going to do the research themselves and someone laying it on a golden platter for them.

If someone would bother to risk a nice prison sentence, then yeah, they might bother to look

Its startling really. I hand you a key, and say, this goes to that safe over there, risk jail time if you wish. Or I put that key on top of a small mountain or behind a massive flame, and tell you once you get it what safe it goes to. Me thinks someone might not have the same motivation. A lot of thieves are thieves for a reason, because they are fricking lazy. ETA: 90% of thieves aren't Gene Hackman, they are compulsive morons.

The only non retarded piece of the recent NY gun law was making gun permit info private once again

No point in explaining to Decatur. He is just here to get yall riled up. By reading his post you should be able to tell this and responding to him only feeds him and keeps him coming back. Because surely, everyone and anyone, that can think reasonably, would know that if the info wasnt provided these burglaries would not be happening. No one is going to leave a paper trail to follow just steal a few guns. Also i bet crime has risen in that area since the map was posted. So lets see, before map gun theft non existent, after map 2 or 3 a month. Hmmm pretty much all the evidence needed. Before map low home break ins, in the month since map printed 2 or 3.

I don't think that's been established yet Someone breaks into a house and goes for the safe? Shocker.
