I am not hoplophobic!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This one is for you gun nutz, happening in New York (probably NYC) now<\/em>.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/2018\/11\/daniel-zimmerman\/coming-to-an-anti-gun-state-near-you-ny-pols-want-social-media-checks-before-buying-guns\/<\/a><\/p>\n

From the article:<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo New York lawmakers are working to draft a bill that would propose a social media check before a gun purchase.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s OK. They only want to look<\/em> at the last three years of your online activity.<\/p>\n

Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams and state Sen. Kevin Palmer\u2019s proposal would allow authorities to review three years of social media history and one year of internet search history of any person seeking to purchase a firearm.\u201d – Article<\/p>\n

And don\u2019t think it will stop there, either, because it won\u2019t. Note the use of the word \u2018hoplophobic\u2019. You could have a T-shirt printed with \u201cI am not hoplophobic\u201d printed on it, just to confuse people. When asked about it, you could either answer it truthfully (not afraid of guns) or just say you had the vaccination for it.<\/p>\n

Aside from the \u2018invasion of privacy\u2019 part, it\u2019s also a violation of the 1st<\/sup> Amendment\u2019s \u2018right of free speech\u2019 phrase to be that invasive. If you act like an ass on social media, well, you are definitely an ass but that does not mean you should be denied your rights over it. \u00a0Nor does posting stupid remarks, such as ‘he ought to be shot\/boiled in oil\/made to do something idiotic’ make you a threat to society. There is a wide difference between venting your anger about some injustice, and making real threats of violence.<\/p>\n

While I\u2019d like to see some dimwitted not-funny comedienne who likes to frighten small children with severed heads spend some time in the cooler, it\u2019s better to ostracize someone like that than it is to deny basic rights that we all take for granted to someone, even if that someone is a colossal social moron.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t think this will stop in New York, even if these two can\u2019t manage to get their little brainstorm signed into law. How long will it take Daddy Bloombucks and his hoplophobic harridans to get signature collectors out on the streets and fund the initiative campaigns to get something like this on the 2020 ballot in California or Washington State?\u201d – Article<\/p>\n

Read the rest of the article. It is both a hoot and a \u2018yank your chain to wake you\u2019 effort. You cannot afford to take anything for granted any more. This news shows just how desperate this bunch of control freaks are to deprive you of your basic Constitutional rights.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll stick to my guns (snort!) on this and say that while my state may have the most mingy, cringingly stringent laws on gun ownership, the reason the Deerfield, IL, mayor was defeated in her attempt to illegally seize personally-owned guns from residents was that they had universally obeyed state laws, were well within their rights in owning them, and she violated both state law and the federal law \u2013 2nd<\/sup> Amendment to the US Constitution \u2013 when she did that without warning.<\/p>\n

That whole business about sanctuary counties for gun owners doesn\u2019t look quite so ridiculous now, does it? How about sanctuary states?<\/p>\n

If you missed my advice yesterday, I said \u201cGO VOTE!!\u201d Then you can go to your local gun shop and stock up on ammo and hold the Lapua briefly in your arms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
