NY’s Cuomo Offers Anti-Gun Proposal That Scares Even The Left

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo isn’t one to play nice with the Second Amendment. We all know that. The man has made his career out of stomping all over the constitutionally protected rights of New Yorkers. For us, it’s clear that he has no respect for the right of the people to keep and bear arms in any meaningful way.

Maybe his latest anti-gun proposal is waking people up to that fact.

Democrats should come together with one clear message on gun safety.
The federal gov’t must:
1) Outlaw assault weapons and high-capacity magazines
2) Create a mental health database
3) Pass universal background checks
4) Pass a Red Flag Law pic.twitter.com/0odxSpeDQT

Now, points one, three, and four are normal talking points on the Left. He’s not exactly breaking new ground with those, and we’re used to seeing them. More importantly, the Left is used to pressing for those.

However, point number two is different. A national mental health database is an Orwellian nightmare in the making. Can you imagine finding out that you’re going to be listed in a database because you sought professional help after, say, the death of a loved one?
