The First Amendment Protects the Second, and the Second Protects All.
I find very little pro second amendment information or educational firearms education on mainstream television. It seems that type of information is very unpopular with whoever programs television. That is legal, they can show or not show what they want.
I've also recently seen all my favorite pro-gun youtube channels defunded of advertising revenue. That is legal, they can pay who they want. Luckily, some have been able to go elsewhere on the internet to gain revenue, such as patreon.
I rely on the websites to find out current information on the second amendment issues, and also consumer information when purchasing a new gun.
I worry that we will see ISPs slow down or block websites that do not like politically, or that they are financially pressured to do so. Is that realistic? Well, dismantling net neutrality will make it so they *legally can do so*. Anti-gun groups have a lot of funding behind them.
This is not a Republican vs Democrat issue. Obama tried to dismantle net neutrality as well and America stood up against him.
The internet is not an optional service. It is essential to modern life and information. If an isp blocks or slows down particular websites you have very little recourse to get to that web site elsewhere. This is a first amendment issue. Dismantling Net Neutrality can endanger 2nd amendment by getting around the 1st. Without net neutrality, it is possible for most of the country can only hear the anti-gun side of the story with no other voices.
