Inmates Use Newspaper's Gun Map to Threaten Guards

The entirely predictable consequences of the Journal News’ decision to publish a map of gun-owners marches on






Please don’t offer the Journal News’ editorial staff an easy out by claiming they’re too dumb or ill-informed to have possibly seen this coming. That a decision to publish the names and addresses of legal gun owners would prove useful to our criminal class had to be part of the editorial team’s calculation. But because they’re obviously a bunch of out-of-control, anti-gun zealots, they likely considered the fallout worth it.

This is what happens when you allow left-wing activists to control a newsroom. In a fit of misguided, self-righteous indignation, they run amok. This is also what happens when a newsroom operates in what we can only assume is a left-wing bubble. As we all know, the Left’s idea of “diversity” never includes a diversity of opinion. So when everyone thinks exactly alike, there’s no one with a different and more grounded worldview to talk you down.
