The unelected governor of New York has now announced that background checks for guns in the state will now include a check of social media for people who have been “spouting philosophies” that “indicate that they have been radicalized.”
To translate, any of the following “radicalized” philosophies will likely get you turned down for a gun purchase in the state: conservatism, anti-vax, Christianity, nationalism, anti-Critical Race Theory, and anyone who believes in the rule of law, among others.
Last September, Hochul asked a group of religious zealots for her vaccine cult to be her “apostles” in spreading vaccine truth and earlier this year, she said at a press briefing that she did not need to know the facts before making decisions about gun control and that concealed carrying for self-protection “makes everyone feel unsafe.”
