The spied-upon decide to do a little politically-motivated spying themselves. Associated Press looks like they're ready to make a whole lot of Montana firearm owners mad.

"We do not comment on ongoing reporting efforts." Those were the words of Jim Clarke, the regional bureau chief for the Associated Press in Denver, when asked about the attempt by the AP in Montana to gain access to the full list of concealed weapons permit holders in Montana.

I use www.zabasearch.com then enter their name and state and get the info immediately. Maybe they need to be contacted to see if they have any firearms. If they are not holders of a CCDW then they are fair game for any THUG or Criminal (like Trayvon) to be robbed or assaulted. Just thought I would give my 2 cents.; July 30, 2013 at 5:55 AM

The more laws there are, the more it makes sense to ignore them all. Lawmaking breeds lawlessness.; July 30, 2013 at 10:00 AM

muckrock news is a fairly vapid entity. some of their money has previously come from:

https://pressfreedomfoundation.org/organization/muckrock-news

like typical leftist cowards, the owners of pressfreedomfoundation.org pay a proxy service to protect their own business information in the domain registration system.

http://whois.net/whois/pressfreedomfoundation.org

unlike typical users of these systems, this particular service is canadian, not american.

the only actual name i see on the PFF website is micah lee and that person may not even know their content is here.

the journalist behind muckrock is michael morisy. he can probably be considered a public figure.

a. live in states like Arizona, or

b. press your state legislators to adopt 'no concealed carry permit required' legislation.

The criminal thugs don't need one, why should we?

To add on to your 2 cents and make it a nickle;
Get together with some like-minded friends and pony together some money to post a fairly large set of ads in the local papers in whatever towns/cities these "GOURAS, CLARKE & VOLZ" clowns happen to live in or nearby;

"The Following Persons(s) listed below, being AP so-called "journalists", and trying to gather the names and personal information of the lawful gun carrying free citizens of Montana for the purposes of publicly publishing them for their own socialist agenda, have proven themselves to be Libtards, and in all likelihood, DO NOT possess or carry guns of their own, being, in our opinion, bed-wetting panty waists.

Therefore, we counter their socialist gun grabbing attempts by publishing their names, addresses and personal information, in no particular order:

(A)

(B)

(C)

You don't have to follow this particular format, but I think you get the idea.

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

-- Mike Vanderboegh, The Lessons of Mumbai:Death Cults, the "Socialism of Imbeciles" and Refusing to Submit, 1 December 2008

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
