The map indicates the addresses of all pistol permit holders in
Westchester and Rockland counties. Each dot represents an individual
permit holder licensed to own a handgun — a pistol or revolver. The data
does not include owners of long guns — rifles or shotguns — which can
be purchased without a permit. Being included in this map does not mean
the individual at a specific location owns a weapon, just that they are
licensed to do so.
Data for all permit categories, unrestricted carry, premises, business, employment, target and hunting, is included, but permit information is not available on an individual basis.
To create the map, The Journal News submitted Freedom of Information requests for the names and addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam. By state law, the information is public record.
Putnam is still putting together its records and could not immediately provide any data. The map will be updated when that data is released. More here:

You see? This is how idiot-libs (aka jourrrrnalists think) ... just because you CAN publish information, that means you SHOULD.
Hey, I wonder if they published a map and a list of where "sex offenders" live ... or child molesters ... or violent criminals.
And "newspapers" wonder why they're going out of business. It's a total mystery ... probably all the fault of the internet.
Is this why the government forces you to "register" your weapons ... so they can allow their cohorts in the media to torment you?
