"Concealed weapons compromise is reached" in Ohio
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports today that a "Concealed weapons compromise is reached" in Ohio (as per Matt Gaylor). Note that:
The compromise hinges on allowing broader access to gun-permit records. Under the deal, journalists would be able to get complete lists of permit-holders, rather than single names - but access would still be denied to the general public.
What would you bet one of these journalists will sell his copy of the list to someone who'll leak it to others, say, nosy neighbors? Also, does anyone else besides me object to a government grant of special privileges to the Fourth Estate in this country?
