I’m surprised they even mentioned what they want. They are probably already doing it, truth be known.

Good little commies they are.

In other words, anyone at all posting anything here, unless it be pure hatred towards conservatives, would be denied a gun.

And what about those that have no Farcebook or Twitter history because they’ve never joined? Are they deranged loners hiding in the shadows just waiting to kill someone?

Back door to registering online IDs.
Can’t search for your online public activity if they don’t know what handles you’ve used.
Would make it a crime to NOT report all your handles, lest your FrankDobbs1977 be for politically correct content, and SoveriegnSociopath be an apparently unconnected persona for your subversive anti-gov’t agitation.

You are obviously a loner who is disconnected from society and cannot be trusted.

Exactly how will this be accomplished? Isn’t that an invasion of privacy that the Dem’s hold sacred? Who will determine what is what and ow will it be determined, what criteria will be used? Lots of questions and no answers.

I think we need mental health checks of those running for office and for re-election.

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS:

“Parker said the bills would cover posts to the top four social media websites — Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram and Twitter, and the main search engines, including Google, Yahoo and Bing. People requesting recertification would also be checked.“

( Meaning periodic recertification of pistol permits. So, lose your 2nd Amendment rights or shut the f__k up online and lose your 1st Amendment rights. A win either way for leftists. )

Like when you or I searched a string of key words that might easily be misconstrued? Or, when you researched anxiety disorders, because your aunt said your cousin had one? On and on.

Good point!

Yes, for this to work, you would have to submit a list, under penalty of perjury, of EVERYWHERE you post, your ID there, and your password if the forum supports private messages.

No way for this to be constitutional.
