Legislation pre-filed in New York by State Senator James Sanders (D-10th Senate District) will require anyone wishing to purchase a firearm to first pass a mental health evaluation.
Senate Bill 7065 has been referred to the New York Senate Consumer Protection Committee where it awaits a hearing.Current New York law requires the use of a licensed firearms dealer and passage of a federal background (NICS) check to transfer any firearm.
SB 7065 would require the mental health check prior to initiating the background check.
The implementation of a mental health evaluation for firearm transfers constitutes unprecedented government regulation and overreach. The mental health requirement would even apply to a father giving a treasured firearm to his son or daughter.
Violators of the new law would face non-violent Class D felony charges and up to 7 years in prison. Some other non-violent Class D felonies in New York include robbery, burglary and vehicular manslaughter. If you are convicted of any felony, you lose your right to own a firearm and your right to vote.

The leftist version of defining mental disorder begins with lack of acceptance of 71 genders, refusal to accept same sex marriage as moral, evidence of unbalanced mind showing white supremacy (as: voted for Trump, registered Republican, purchase history on Amazon shows books by Michelle Malkin, Mark Steyn, Mark Levin and Michael Savage).
Pelosi will say "I'm filling this for a friend---Joe Biden. I don't need this myself, you know."
Which makes it like a poll tax, and obviously unconstitutional.
Just keep chipping away our 2nd amendment right.

Mental health ‘evaluator’ : “Do you support the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution ?
United States citizen : “ Yes. “
Mental health ‘evaluator’ : “Denied by reason of you are mentally ill. “
I have to wonder if the mental health “evaluation” (and how THAT is going to be run is a whole can of worms unto itself, plus whether it is even Constitutional) runs afoul of federal law under HIPPA. If it does, there’s a valid challenge right there.
You have to be crazy to live in NYC, so therefore automatically disqualified from owning a firearm.
Guns run out of ammo and with the exception of advanced weapons used in the IDF, can’t be fired except straight forward. If you want some real destruction, force lunatics to get “creative”. They will.
Nazis and Soviets did the same thing. It ended up putting hundreds of millions in prison,if lucky,or just dead. Take the guns,everything else falls right into place.
My brother’s family in rural western NY are planning to leave — for many reasons, including this. Home schooling, vaccinations also.
It will work like this: do you want a firearm? Then you must be crazy, permission denied!!
First every public official, especially police, should be required to take a mental health exam, but then we already know the politicians are insane and there is a high percentage of alcoholics and domestic abusers among the police force.
Psychologist examiner: “Why do you want to buy a gun?”
Gun applicant: “For self protection.”
Psychologist examiner: “You are paranoid. . . You fail your psych exam. . . NEXT!“
You can bet Christians will be deemed mentally ill on account of homophobia and transphobia.
To run for office needs a mental health screen.
Of course these Socialist Bourgeois (p42 Manifesto) can do that.

39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

They (SB) should also be forced to give up all homes, vehicles and assets. After all they “didn’t build that”. Right, Barry? BoR be damned. It works for them, not us. (The invaders need places to stay and nice things.) They looted it from the citizens of this republic. They put us and our progeny into debt/tax SLAVERY.
