Apple’s next iPhone and iPad operating system will no longer feature an emoji picture of a handgun. In its place will be an emoji of a green, plastic squirt gun.
There is nothing particularly threatening about the current handgun picture. You only see the side of the gun; it isn’t pointed at the reader or anyone else. No bullets are even being fired. The whole idea to drop the handgun emoji came about through a lobbying effort started by New Yorkers Against Gun Violence.
The bomb, sword, knife, and axe emojis will stay. Apparently, a bomb with a lit fuse is OK but a nonthreatening handgun is too much.
So do you feel safer now?
Apple isn't the first tech company to be accused of liberal political bias. This year, Facebook was found to be leaving conservative sources out of its list of trending news stories.
Google’s news searches have also favored Hillary Clinton and liberal sources. . . .

Good question
That’s an infringement on my group New Yorkers Against Tiny Animated Photo Violence.
I’m gonna sue.
Apple; the company of snowflakes. Some are just flakes though.
It’s called Utopian idiocy. The folks who run that company thinks everyone who owns a gun is bad and will eventually use it in an illegal manner. That’s like and kind to thinking that all women will eventually become prostitutes.
I am an Apple fan, but given the fact that their ideas ran out when Jobs died, and their morality and creativity has evaporated with the current “leader”, I am relearning my Unix skills knowing that Apple is a soon to be has been and I will NEVAH go back to Microsoft.

Not all of us have $700,000.00 worth of security around us like the Apple boss.
It’s an assault emoji. The bedwetting contingent of Apple employees will have nightmares.
Because they are a bunch of terrified dope smoking liberals!
He explains it perfectly !
It is ALL for the transformation of worldview in our children-—to make the sign of a gun—HORRIFIC-—the WORST THING EVER-—yet they glorify islam and the most vile behaviors with “rainbows” to normalize using others in a horrific way——BUT-—Guns are Evil!
The ONLY reason America has a few freedoms left is because of our 2nd Amendment. That goes (and it is infringed NOW unconstitutionally)—and it will end all freedom-—as our freedom of religion and speech have been infringed and banned from the public square and public schools.
We need to take God and put Him and Christ BACK into our schools since our Natural Rights come ONLY from God and not the State—as stated in the Declaration and the philosophy of Locke (Our Constitution). Christian Ethics IS the ONLY ethic system in our “Justice” system which is NOW (unconstitutional) a Vice system.
Control of all our culture by satanists/globalists/monopolies is all to embed the correct emotions in our youth-—and the military-style psychological warfare embedded in Common Core and embedded in a lot of sitcoms promote pure evil and dependence and vice and vilify “guns”. The satanic ethics are embedded into children which destroys a Christian Worldview and that is why they need access to your children (public schools/TV?Movies/Music/Video games) They need to keep kids programmed (not thinking for self so they will be unable to in the end-—no ability for integration of the brain-—a stunted (intentional) brain into immaturity/warped perceptions-—inable to see Facts/ Truth, Reality. They will live in a virtual world 24/7—that is what this isolation training is ALL about.....the future “minds” of our children (what’s left of their mind).
Vice creates slaves only so virtue and Logic and Common Sense has to be destroyed in children. No Davy Crocketts anymore——not possible in today’s mass indoctrination into dependency, group-”think” centers where self-reliance, Free Will and individualism is vilified. They aren’t learning REAL LIFE skills in Nature-—no ability for survival or anything if the grid goes down. NONE-—and the helpless little serfs who can be herded and controlled easily is all the corporations want—and to get the filthy people off the earth, into little 10/10 hovels so they are normalizing children inside—no play—no rugged outdoors—no masculine risks allowed starting at age two with helmets when on tricycles. Total emasculation of boys-—keep in a State of Fear (of Man, not God).
Just Operant Conditioning your children like Pavlov’s dog-—programmed——programmed by TV, Movies/ TV Sitcoms, and esp. the skoolng—with all textbooks since john dewey written by hardcore communists and humanists (sodomites—people who need marriage destroyed to make emotionally crippled—easily corrupted, warped children totally removed from Natural Laws so Up is Down and Slavery is Freedom and Boys are Girls——dumb as stumps).
The sword is islamic
I was surprised to see that Adobe pays the range fees for its corporate shooting team. So corporations can do it. It is just that places like Apple are becoming quite radical
*Apple for eating...yes, Apple for computing ... no...

It’s no mystery - Apple is very much the company of latte-sipping young liberals who think they know everything at 21 including Daddy’s guns are evil and God is a fiction.
