Medford paper sues sheriff to get list of gun licensees
MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) - The Medford Mail Tribune has sued the sheriff for a list of concealed handgun licenses in Jackson County, hoping to determine how many are held by teachers.The newspaper said it wants to determine the impact of a ruling in another suit, brought by English teacher Shirley Katz. She has a permit and wants to be able to carry a gun to class.
Sheriff Mike Winters said he would oppose the newspaper's lawsuit, filed last week.
The CCW holders should take the same tack as the VCDL and start publishing the publicly available information of the newspaper writers and editors.
