ON THE MEDIA: NEWSPAPER PUBLISHES A MAP SHOWING WHERE GUN OWNERS LIVE

By Greg Ball

    Following the school massacre in nearby Connecticut, a New York state paper published a map [2] showing the names and addresses of handgun permit owners in its readership area — all except for one county, where local officials have refused to provide the paper with the information. This decision violates explicit New York State law, but has a supporter in New York state Senator Greg Ball, who tells Bob why he’s supporting Putnam County officials. (AUDIO [3])
