People seeking to carry concealed handguns will be required to hand over lists of their social media accounts for a review of their 'character and conduct.'
ALBANY, New York -- As missed warning signs pile up in investigations of mass killings, New York state is rolling out a novel strategy to screen applicants for gun permits. People seeking to carry concealed handguns will be required to hand over lists of their social media accounts for a review of their"character and conduct."
"I don't think we would do that," Kehoe said."I think it would be a constitutional invasion of privacy." It will be up to local sheriff's staff, judges or county clerks to scroll through those profiles as they check whether applicants have made statements suggesting dangerous behavior. The new approach, however, comes amid growing debate over the policing of social media posts and a legacy of unwarranted surveillance of Black and brown communities.
It can be tricky, he said, to decode social media posts by younger people, who could simply be expressing themselves by posting a music video.
