In some states, information on CC licensees is still public information.
www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2008-04-24-gunpermitrecords_N.htm
And some editors have felt an urge to publish that information.
If those licensed are made public, then anyone knows who does not
have such a license, making them more at risk of being a target of crime.
Having a license publicized can possibly change attitudes of biased employers
and associates. If a battered wife gets a cc license, then the criminal
husband, or ex, can be more prepared if he intends further criminal harm.
If there is a competent system to screen those granted a CC license,
then there should be no excuse for publication.
If that system is not competent, then that system is the issue.
