Yes.

► New York Lawmakers Want Social Media History To Be Included In Gun Background Checks

► Dead Brothel Owner DENNIS HOF Elected To Nevada's State Legislature

► Saudi Journalist TURKI BIN ABDUL AZIZ AL-JASSER Tortured To Death In Prison

► U.S. General DUNFORD: Troops Won’t Deny Immigrant Caravan Entry To U.S.

► MATTHEW G. WHITAKER Is New U.S. Attorney General After JEFF SESSIONS

► U.S. & Japan Plan Military Response To Chinese Incursions Of Disputed Islands

Eric Adams, the president of Brooklyn Borough, and state Senator Kevin Palmer are currently writing the proposed legislation, which would give law enforcement authorities the power to check up to three years of an individual’s social media accounts and internet search history before they are allowed to buy a gun,

“If there’s something that a law enforcement officer of a reasonable mind reviewed that shows this person does not hold the mental capacity to own a gun, then he should not be able to get a permit. We should use the same standard that determines whether a police officer can carry a gun.”

This would require you to hand over the passwords of your social media accounts to authorities. That is unreasonable search and seizure, in my opinion, which violates the 4th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, let alone the blatant violation of the 2nd Amendment's right to bear arms.

It also leaves it up to the personal disgression of an un-elected official.

New York is f*cked up. We know that when you cram 10 million people into a city, there are going to be problems. The bad guys will ALWAYS find a way to get firearms [homemade, stealing, etc.], so why keep making it harder for the good guys to bear arms? I realize that we don't want every nutjob with a mental disorder to have a gun, but law enforcement should not be the ones to deem a civilian fit or unfit to own a firearm.

making it harder for crazies

I imagine they'd just scroll through your Facebook not use your password

I agree that we should filter out the crazies, but we have to do it the right way. Also, if your Facebook account is set to private, only friends can see your posts, so that would mean the cops forcing you to unlock your private media for them to view.

"No matter how it's pitched, it all comes down to this: no Second Amendment rights for New Yorkers if they don't use their First Amendment rights in a way their government approves."

I imagine they'd just scroll through your Facebook not use your password, lots of employers are now doing that as part of their background check

if you're a conspiracy type I don't know why you'd have social media at all, that **** is obviously compromised half a dozen ways

And **** that ****. Do you want employers reading all the **** you post here?

Every key stroke under our social media accounts is monitored by artificially intelligent computer systems, which funnel it to the NSA, who archives the metadata at their facility in Utah.
