Many other states have these laws on the books already. Many will add them.

Heard a report earlier that said they seized 27 firearms from 16 people.

And that the 16 people were overjoyed that someone was there to intervene.

Because those 16 people didn't trust themselves with guns when the seizures took place.

Propaganda horse droppings.

PS: The report said there were no absence of due process issues either. More PHD.

Doesn’t seem like that many guns seized from 16 people. I’m not sure where I stand on these red flag laws, yet.

reads like an April Fools Day joke.

Maybe they were Taurus owners.

Family can report you and they take your guns. I could see a lot of spiteful spouses and other family doing this out of anger. I could see if they let you get a psychological review first before taking the guns. That’s not how it works. They take them and then you have to prove you’re sane in order to get them back.

Truth be told, I’m sure most police officers don’t want to be doing this. It’s dangerous for them and the majority favor the 2A.

^^^And that's no bull.^^^

They used to make great revolvers. 15-20 years ago.

My ported Model 85 is one of my favorite handguns.

This is my biggest issue. Parents, two brothers, SIL, and a couple of niece and nephews who have been indoctrinated, are all for complete confiscation. They all know I am a firearms owner and hate it. My niece won't set foot in the house knowingly there is a firearm inside. My SIL will come in but is uneasy most of the time. She and my one brother are 100% hippie. I am afforded no due process until after a complaint and confiscation.

Coming to a state near you.

No one is forcing them to do it. Men and woman still have the ability to exercise free will in this country.

A case could be made that police officers are the last line of defense when it comes to illegal searches and seizures. I believe they take an oath to uphold the Constitution. They can tell their superiors that what's taking place is Unconstitutional.

People leave their jobs everyday because the job entails doing things which are against one's principles. Once you give up your principles, you have nothing.

This is exactly what the libs want. The more they do this the more they will lie and say it is working.

The fact that it violates the constitution doesn’t matter to them because they feel safer.

Time for a 2nd safe with a throw away gun in it (Glock or Hi Point) . PoPo show up let them open that one.

The list of long gun purchases, that the government wasn't supposed to keep track of, will be used to take everything.

I’m pretty sure this is one in the same and shame on Fox 4 that crappy reporting. I’m 99% this is the same case. If this is the same incident it’s older news and there’s already a thread on it. . Fox sure left out a lot of facts and y’all ate it like bacon

Yeah, all kidding aside I have a Millennium G2 that I would throw up against any Glock or HK. Seriously. Accurate, nice trigger, dead nuts reliable, and comfortable to handle. I think it's hit or miss with them (no pun intended).

You're funny.

No policeman is going to risk his pension, job, kids' financial security over your guns. Confiscate and arrest, let the judge figure it out.

I believe that Is only a federal law and not a state law. Correct me if I am wrong though.

The FOX News story in the OP happens here in MD using a long-standing process called the “Health General Title 10” law.

It is part of established law that allows the demonstrably mentally ill to be separated from firearms.

The Red Flag Bill being rammed down our throats here was designed to throw a net over firearm owners who are cranky, or pissed, or grumpy, or out of sorts, or going through some sadness that WE ALL experience from time to time.

Sending out PRE-CRIME POLICE CONFISCATION SQUAD for folks not mentally ill violates our 4th Amendent rights and must be stoppped!
