A proposed law calling for the addition of a social media search component to law enforcement background checks for pistol permits appears to be a misfire for local gun owners. State Senator Kevin Parker’s proposed bill would allow law enforcement to search social media before approving a handgun license or rectifying one. The bill would change New York’s gun laws to allow authorities to search social media for potential red flags before approving a handgun license.

| How about proposing a law that would allow law enforcement to actually arrest elected officials, that are knowingly breaking their Oath of Office, under the color of law, in continual attempts to deprive law abiding citizens of their rights protected by the Constitution of the United States of America? How about that? |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
