The Bangor Daily News has put out Freedom of Information Act requests to all the police departments state wide asking for the release of Concealed Carry Permit holders Names, addresses and dates of birth.
I was hoping to get a better copy of the letter but this was all I could manage:

I really would have thought the absurdities of the NY newspapers would have (no pun intended) set the record straight for any other groups with the same intentions. I know the BDN "claims" they wouldn't publish the private information but I doubt the likelihood of any potential truthfulness surrounding a request such as this. Luckily as told in one of the links there is a bill proposed to protect the privacy of permit holders information by keeping it confidential. I have already written emails in support of the bill and intend to write letters of disapproval to any and all contacts I can obtain for the Bangor Daily News.
For any users of Facebook there is a "Boycott Bangor Daily News Don't tread on us" page.
