Maybe the trick would be to put it into a security envelope so you don't disclose anything.. although I personally love the idea of printing it on a postcard, since it's practically public record once a data broker gets his filthy paws on it anyway
Not only that, but they might have a legal case against you. I've been slowly working through Seek and Hide: The Tangled History of the Right to Privacy, and my main takeaways have been:
(1) The constitutional right to free speech and a free press is not as broad as most people probably think.
(2) Truth is not necessarily an air-tight defense in a case of libel, as courts at various times and places have decided against publishers for true but embarrassing things intended to humiliate or harm.
