0 Days Since Last Shooting: But the Second Amendment!

Re: 0 Days Since Last Shooting: But the Second Amendment!

The difference is the red flag law would allow taking the guns BEFORE getting into court,

I don't think that's what the bill said, although you can read it yourself. I think that you have to go in on an emergency petition and get a judge to sign off on it. Then there is a second court hearing to determine whether the guns should be taken away long term.

Yeah I worded it poorly, but there would clearly be a lower burden of proof for the emergency petition that would speed the initial process.
 
So it's an excellent idea, but just in case it's overlappy with other laws let's not do it. Makes sense...
At least Drew will just come out and say he doesn't think being nuts and a threat yourself/others is reason to take someone's gun away.

Wrong. I’ve posted plenty of times if a court determines someone is a threat to themselves or others they should lose their right to have guns. I do think the guns should be auctioned off or something like that and they should get the proceeds(as long as they haven’t been used in a crime.)

You've also posted plenty of times in favor of people deemed incapable of handling their finances being able to keep their guns, so, not wrong.

any confiscated guns should be held for a period of time to allow for appeals and then destroyed. we have enough guns.

If the appeals process proves (under HEAVY scrutiny) that the gun owner should be able to reclaim the guns? Guns returned. Otherwise, someone could just throw out a wild claim.

That’s the whole ****ing reason i said to hold on to them for a period of time to allow for appeal.

Way to add nothing to the conversation.

Your post made it sound like you wanted to destroy them, no matter what, in a snarky matter, as in "appeal it, sure, but guns are gone." If I misinterpreted that, I apologize, sincerely.

I don’t think the government confiscating and ‘destroying’ someone’s property if they haven’t committed a crime is a road we want to go down.

But it's ok if they confiscate it and keep it, or sell it off to the highest bidder?

you're going to auction it off, so either way they don't get their property back
