We should put all males on the list because they are all potential rapists.
We should put all females on the list because they are all potential prostitutes.
We should put all CPAs on the list because they have potential for tax evasion,
We should put all newspaper wiriters, editors, and publishers on the list, they
have the potential to mislead the public with hyperbole instead of facts.
All my guns are on a "list" in Florida too, because every time I buy one, they take down the serial number and store it in a database with my name and address. I do not think the list is public though.
Finn I have no idea about Florida and other states have taken measure to insure registrastions are not public information. In the state of NY if you own a handgun it's public information hence the reason for it being publicized.
-------edit-------
Just to note this is a list of people permitted to own a handgun, the paper also requested information on what handguns were owned but that was denied. Each hand gun you own in NY has to be registered with the handgun permit.

OK so, it is public info in NY. Thanks.

Their laws differ from FL laws. You don't need a permit to own one here, only if you want to carry concelead. Also, here you don't have to register them, although when you buy a gun from a licenced dealer, they take down the serial number and store it in a database with your name and address.
Does it list valuable private property you own that is very desirable to steal?
You mean like a car, TVs, computers etc which every home has? Some people post signs on the front lawns warning criminals that the homeowner is also a gunowner. The idea is to discourage the thief. You are saying it could work both ways, that the presence of a gun might actually attract the criminals.
You mean like a phonebook? You can find my name and number there.
Well why dont you list it here for everyone to see, just like the paper did for gun owners?
Why are you afraid of posting it? You shouldnt live in fear.
