1. Great idea.

[The Magistrate]

2. Damn, That's Cold

"I like it. I like it a lot."

[Bluethroughu]

3. I was thinking the same thing and anyone that has a drug or

Alcohol problem should lose their right to have a gun.

[70sEraVet]

6. Sorry, that's TOO much common sense.

I know people who are serious (non-recovering) alcoholics - arent allowed to drive a car unless it has that gadget they have to blow into, but are perfectly free to mainain a personal arsenal!

[TexasBushwhacker]

26. And people with drug or alcohol problems are at higher risk

for suicide.

[Bluethroughu]

42. In Iowa, I believe they passed a law that allows the blind to conceal and carry.

That does not sound like a good idea, at all.

[Maraya1969]

32. Yes. Add it on to the Hunter Biden gun law!

[Bluethroughu]

43. That's what I'm thinking, Hunters who owned a gun for a week,

Could take down the gun lobby, with his precedent, if convicted.

I'm sure it just a shit show for the GOP, to rally their troops, but...

I think we could turn that into the GOP are using Hunter as the excuse to take away the guns.

And maybe that is what their trying to do, because as these dips learn more as the lies and treason come out, they will come looking for the GOP, and they're frightened.

[Shermann]

45. Except having an alcohol problem is perfectly legal

Having a drug problem is legal too, it's the purchasing and possessing that can be problematic.

Nuanced differences are important in the eyes of the law, especially when Constitutional rights are being stripped away.

[Iggo]

50. "Problem." Too specific and too vague at the same time. No way to test for it.

“Test for it.”

Hmm….

[LisaM]

4. Absolutely.

We need to scrutinize every gun application.

[Bluethroughu]

44. Hair sample drug and alcohol test, then background checks for red flags.

Violence, arson, domestic...the usual problems. Insurrection is definately confiscation territory.

[William Seger]

5. Well, they do say they have a right to investigate a private citizen ...

... to see if there are any issues that require legislative action, so here's one!

[Blue Owl]

7. K&R

[multigraincracker]

8. Indeed....

K&R

[mamacita75]

9. Idea

is a great idea! Love the Hunter in it!

[mitch96]

10. I like it... vary tasty and I wonder if it could backfire some how in the future...nt

[Mr.Bill]

11. How about a drug test before you buy a gun? n/t

[getagrip_already]

12. Or take a votebin congress?

[Mr.Bill]

14. Nothing would get done.

Lack of Quorum.

[usonian]

13. Turnabout is fair play n/t

[republianmushroom]

15. Very good idea, but nothing will come of it.

[Maraya1969]

33. Why do you say that?

It pisses me off when people just automatically say, "It won't work" Let's try to be positive.

[republianmushroom]

35. I posted that because that is what my option is.

And I don't care what P.Y.O.'s. OK.

[Maraya1969]

36. Fine. But just know you are not helping our cause by being so negative.

[republianmushroom]

37. Negative or truthful.

[Maraya1969]

40. Well why don't you look at all the other comments and decide for yourself?

[republianmushroom]

49. I have decided for myself, "Very good idea, but nothing will come of it."

[LoisB]

16. Brilliant.

[KS Toronado]

17. So in other words

test everybody for drugs and maybe alcohol. Anyone caught lying about anything loses all their guns, accidentally
wrote your address wrong....sorry the law is the law, turn in all your guns. Rs would vote against that.

[Talitha]

18. Great idea! Turn it around on them - like Joe did when they started the 'Brandon' thing.

[AnrothElf]

19. "Link to Nazi bar" LOL I mean, "Link to tweet"

How hard is it to copy & paste or take a screenshot?

I don't drink with Nazis.

[usonian]

39. I worked on this today.

Most people cannot grasp the many steps needed to upload a photo/screenshot to a photo host. I previously made some proposals to DU members, and tried two really promising sites today that take a screenshot of a url ( i.e. the twitter page ) and return an image URL. Both were incompatible with DU (no render/preview).

Now, I'm not going to bitch at the hard-working admins/coders. They have priorities.

I could no doubt program a labor and grief-saving site. And maybe I will.

[MiHale]

20. Freaking brilliant!...

[ms liberty]

21. I'm ms liberty and I endorse this message . K&R n/t

[flying_wahini]

22. Now this IS a great idea.

[Wounded Bear]

23. K & R...nt

[lame54]

24. Hunter's Law - works on 2 levels

[Mblaze]

25. Not to rain on your parade but...

I already know the Republican response…

We already had a law in place. Hunter broke that law. We don’t need more laws. Democrats are tryng to take our guns away.

[question everything]

27. Why not copy and paste and save us from looking at the X?

Democrats should seize on the Hunter Biden gun charges to pass universal background checks... call it Hunter's Law and then force Republicans to vote against it.

[AntivaxHunters]

28. Because when I've done that people have said "Post the tweet!"

[pazzyanne]

29. Excellent!!! nt

[Glaisne]

30. I made the suggestion on my senator's website.

[BlueIdaho]

31. Brilliant!

[a kennedy]

34. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[Wild blueberry]

38. And...that's how you do it

Great idea.
Thank you.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

41. Brilliant

Do it Joe! Golden opportunity the repug shitheads gave you,use it.

[Think. Again.]

46. Brilliant.

[dmr]

47. Without a doubt, this is absolutely brilliant, and doable.

[marble falls]

48. Brilliant!!! Go after all the MAGAs who've done what Biden is accused of.

[gulliver]

51. I like it

[Grins]

52. The problem is...

No Democrat will do it because it takes planning and messaging. And D’s don’t have that.

Great idea, though!

[AllaN01Bear]

53. ooooh aaaah . love it.

this exact same thing happened to rs when they signed off on the 1967/8 civil rights act for harrassment . comes back to bite them in the tush every time . id love to see it inacted and passed.
