Gun Bill To Require Buyers To Hand Over Social Media Passwords & Search History   Providing more information on the newly-drafted bill, Rochester First is reporting that the search history will come from major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing. Also, anyone applying for, or renewing a pistol permit would have to give up all login information, including passwords, for any social media sites they’re a part of. Posts from the past three years on sites like Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat would be reviewed for language containing slurs, racial/gender    bias, threats and terrorism. “There should be more restrictions on how guns are purchased. We should have more background checks,” Paul McQuillen, director of the Buffalo chapter of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, told WKBW. “We’ve obviously seen some of the mass shooters have a social media history that should have sent red flags,” McQuillen added. James Tresmond, a gun rights lawyer, told the local NY station that the bill would violate multiple constitutional rights.   Some are arguing that the subjective nature of the bill is highly concerning. “The judge who grants or denies a permit has fairly broad digression under New York State law.  And it has to have a rational basis. So they can’t say they don’t like your gender or your race,” Sheldon Boyce, an attorney with Brenna Boyce PLLC, told WIVB 4. “For example, religious practice- are we going to deny permits because a person goes to church or goes to a mosque?” Boyce asked. “In the case of Heller vs District of Columbia in 2008, the US Supreme Court held that the possession of a hand gun in the home is a fundamental constitutional right so anything that infringes upon that right is subject to challenge,” he explained   The bill is currently in committee with a scheduled vote still pending.   by Joseph Jankowski  | November 23, 2018 (zerohedge.com) Source article Here   Personal note: This is completely insane.
