is it my imagination or ....

since El paso I been having trouble with any pro gun searches so I was wondering: Is it my imagination or is pro gun searches being censured in google search? and maybe others, Since el paso?

I been trying to search regarding how to fight this insanity that is running amuck with the anti gun crowd. Red flag laws, enhanced back ground checks, etc.

Stripping the rights and criminalizing the law abiding citizens.

It has a lot to do with how people don't understand how laws actually work.

laws are in place to let us know what is or isn't wrong and what punishments we can expect if we break said laws.

Laws do not prevent wrong doing. It is impossible to prevent wrong doing, because every ones moral and ethical code is different.

So in a lot of ways I been in kind of a panic, fearing the emotionally charged irrationally thinking crowd, who thinks that making more rules somehow prevents something from happening. When in reality each individual has to make a conscious decision to follow the rules that are understood by everyone and not a certain group of people understand, Like shall not murder. shall not commit adultery etc .

And this emotional irrationality is criminalizing citizens like myself who have been straight and narrow their entire lives.

And it doesn't help when they keep trying to change the goal post location. With every new (not)common sense law.

So I been trying to arm myself with knowledge but I fear my searches are being censured because I use to be able to find content with searches I been using in past.

many of the alt search engines use google results I couldn't remember which ones. I thought duckduckgo was one of those but with the privacy invasion removed similar to startpage

duck duck go is how I found this site being it was first in search.

It is important to know so we can try to get the word out that the public opinion is being manipulated in a manor that is extremely damaging to society.

The big thing I been thinking about it why are these violent acts are happening in the first place. Its not about guns. Its about people and how we treat each other. And how our world view is being shaped by the info we adsorb. So if google is restricting certain views those searching for unbiased views like myself are being manipulated in believing in the biased views by the absence of apposing views.

That is the whole point of the restriction, and yes, they are restricting what you see. That's their plan....

+1000 for DuckDuckGo, also they don't track your searches like Google does.
I've been playing around with various searches, and have recently discovered I can set Chrome to default to DuckDuckGo as the search engine. It has been handy.

The search engine default can be set to anything you want in Mozilla Firefox. I have been using DuckDuckGo for several years now. Best search engine available.

Retired IT guy and an embedded reporter on the subject.

Chrome is Google. The search engine you use with Chrome is moot. That whole Chrome engine is so contaminated that bolting on a restrictive search engine is useless.

Keep in mind, Chrome is from the same folks that brought you Google. Just because you don't use Google, doesn't mean they don't track you when you use Chrome.

I haven't been worried so much about tracking as the "curated results", but if Google is still exercising control, I'd call that concerning.

Couple of thoughts:

When (if) you log into YouTube, you are logging in to Google. Same with Gmail, the Google browser, and others.

You log into one, you log into all.

Like Facebook, I don't have YouTube video storage, I seldom use Chrome, and I have lots of Gmails but they are all burners.
