Repeal Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act and additionally add weapons of any type and in this case add military style gear - e.g. the storm trooper stuff. Add more advertising regulations like alcohol/tobacco.
FB already prohibits weapons, alcohol, tobacco ads etc..
Gun manufacturers would have to KYC like banks, probably have to add big insurance costs and ultimately charge (significantly) higher prices which should hopefully reduce the amount of weapons in the US which is already ridiculously high. The tobacco playbook I'm talking European increasing costs.
- Vecr 6y agoJudges can usually see intent behind laws like that, similar things have been tried with abortion, attempting to make it harder/more expensive or similar, with not great success.
- dillondoyle 6y agoI'm not an expert here - I work in politics which overlaps a bit - it seems though that there is a very organized effort to install judges who go against this though right? the Heritage Foundation has successfully placed hundreds on the bench who rule using plain text ultra-socially conservative legal theory. Even at the justice department some of Barr's speeches especially Notre Dame one are insanely religious and scary from my side of the fence. And abortion seems to be the main test here too. aren't there a few cases that could go before the supreme court soon where conservatives are hoping that Barrett's quote about re-examining past rulings and not holding precedent as the 'law' will reverse our progress?
