INGO has the scoop on this one, but the gist is that three bills have been introduced to limit access to the handgun permit database to law enforcement only. This is a step in the right direction, especially since the Herald Times is loosing advertisers over this as well.
Keep up the pressure – contact your state legislators to support these bills that keep your data safe from prying eyes!
Good luck getting this one pushed through. It’s a good bill and you deserve a little privacy.
And continue the pressure on the advertisers. The only thing these newspaper people will understand is money. So hit’em where it hurts — hard!
