Connecticut lawmaker wants names of gun owners to be made public

If the CT Legislature does this, then they have removed any intentions anonymity behind the Concealed Carry enforcement of Connecticut's technically Open Carry Laws.
And since any anonymity would be gone, the case is *much* stronger for Open Carry.
So, go ahead, CT Legislature, figuratively shoot yourself in the foot.

    OK I get your point now. Doesn't make ME scratch my head but, well, maybe I'm just that more cynical than you!

    The article states, "this is the least invasive bill that's going to come up this year.".... doesn't that in itself reveal the motive... if we can get away with this, more is coming and I did spell that right .. This is a total outrage.. pluck away at our "granted to us" rights until the American people just let them have it their way... sticking their head in the sand like so much that has already happened in the way of "rights." I get infuriated at this bullshit.... Common sense no more... more people riding in the cart than pulling it... I'm ready to pull that cart to the top of the biggest mountain in the US and let go....

    No... that's not what I meant... I can see that that's where they're going with this, but how are they selling this total invasion of privacy tactic to anyone? Names and addresses, of private citizens, who are doing NOTHING illegal... putting them on display. And everyone just says, "oh yeah...that's an okay thing to do...sure..yup..totally fine...as long as it's not me." Ah...the hangman!!...I'm going to find that and post it.

    You can't figure that out?

    It's not much different from requiring Jews to place a special symbol in the window...

    What IS the point of revealing names and addresses. I can't figure out what they're goal is? Other than abusing their power (they have the info and they can use it). Private citizenry no more! What a head scratcher.
