FULL TITLE: New York Democrats drafting bill to screen social media accounts, Internet search history of gun buyers

If two New York Democrats have their way, prospective gun buyers in the state will have three years of their social media interactions screened as part of the background check process.

On Friday, WCBS 880 reported that Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams and state Sen. Kevin Palmer are drafting a proposal that would let authorities review three years of social media history and one year of internet search history of anyone seeking to purchase a firearm in the state.

“A three-year review of a social media profile would give an easy profile of a person who is not suitable to hold and possess a fire arm,” Adams told the radio station. “If the police department is reviewing a gang assault, a robbery, some type of shooting, they go and do a social media profile investigation,” he explained.

So, what are they looking for? According to reports, they would be searching for “hate speech,” or anything that might suggest the potential buyer is someone who would commit a crime.

In short, it’s a quick intro to a real-life Minority Report.

2,000 man-hours of effort. You’d have to have a staff of at least 200 folks, even if you hoped to get this group approved in four to six months.

That’s not a bug, that’s a feature. And who should pay for this? The applicants, of course—it’s only fair, and it keeps us all safe.
