New York to require concealed carry applicants to turn over social media history
By Eric Utter
As modern life continues to unfold as if from the pages of a dystopian novel, it is harder and harder to be shocked — or appalled. Or one would think it should be. Nonetheless, it happens.
For example, New York State will soon require applicants for permits to carry handguns to hand over lists of their social media accounts. For a review of their "character and conduct."
This Chinese-like new requirement will take effect in September and was included in a recently passed law that Empire State legislators passed in a huff after the U.S. Supreme Court had the audacity to rule that the Second Amendment to the Constitution actually means what it says — and therefore law-abiding citizens of legal age have a right to carry a handgun for personal protection.
The creepily intrusive — and unconstitutional — new law was promptly signed by tyrannical New York governor Kathy Hochul, who, like Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau and the Biden Crime Family, appear to be big fans of the Chinese Communist Party and its social credit system.
