About two hours after leaving the range, a Twitter account that espouses right-wing views started posting about the friends’ location. Video footage published online three weeks later shows an associate of the American Guard, a group with white supremacist ties, yelling at a rally that she got the friends’ names and numbers from Discount Gun Mart.
The friends haven’t been able to prove how exactly their whereabouts and activities became public, but they believe it occurred after a Gun Mart employee recognized Loder as a left-wing activist. Loder has garnered attention for exposing members of hate groups and documenting people who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
State law requires businesses to protect customers’ personal information from unauthorized disclosure and to inform them of any breaches of their data.
Precisely. I may not be safe with a gun, but why should I let the bad people in the world be the only one who is armed?
