Putnam County Clerk Dennis Sant has refused to hand over the names of gun permit owners in his county to The Journal News. The paper created a national controversy when it decided to publish online maps detailing the names and addresses of thousands of gun permit holders in two New York counties.
Sant joined America Live and explained that while the paper had the legal right to publish the names, he believes the move could put gun owners in harm’s way. “I wasn’t going to allow the people in Putnam County to have to endure that type of scrutiny,” he said.
