Burglars steal two guns from home featured on weapons permit map published by newspaper, just days after break-in at another address on the list

Glenn Reynolds: I SMELL A LAWSUIT

Just my take: 

1. Isn't it interesting that the story should break in a Britihs paper.
2. The fellow travellers in the press and academia disparage the backlash.

Some critics retaliated by posting reporters' and editors' addresses and other personal information online.

 

Howard Good, a journalism professor at the State University of New York at New Paltz, called the critics' response childish and petulant. 'It doesn't move the issue of gun control to the level of intelligent public discussion,' he said. 'Instead, it transforms what should be a rational public debate on a contentious issue into ugly gutter fighting.'


On the contrary Howie, this is part of what ordinary people call the "public debate."  What the Left calls a public debate is them lecturing the rest of us.  I would add that telling criminals where to go to steal guns is pretty ugly gutter fighting.
