The Roanoke Times published a list in an on-line database, obtained under Virginia's FOIA, that contained the names and street addresses of every individual in the Commonwealth who has a CCW.
Included in their database were the names of a number of individuals with active protection from abuse orders against abusive former partners, several lower court judges, a number of legislators, and IIRC a state Supreme Court justice.
The columnist who published the list did so as a means of highlighting Virginia's FOIA law.
The reaction was immediate and as can be imagined very hostile. There are plans to introduce a bill in Virginia that would make CCW records off-limits under the FOIA.
In his zeal to prove just how wonderful the FOIA is, the columnist likely helped limit its scope.
Unintended consequences.
Oh, and I don't really think it's all that surprising that the major cities have lower rates of CCW than the 'burbs.
Think about why that might be the case. It's not really that difficult to figure out. Cities = liberal & crook havens.
