EXCLUSIVE: The FBI Secretly Pressured Americans To Waive Away Their Gun Rights

The FBI is secretly pressuring Americans to sign forms waiving away their Second Amendment rights, in a move multiple experts say is legally concerning.

dailycaller.com

From the article:

• The FBI secretly provided forms to Americans between 2016 and 2019 to “voluntarily” relinquish their rights to own, buy or even use firearms, according to internal documents and communications.
• The signed forms, which were unearthed by the firearms rights group Gun Owners of America (GOA), raise serious legal questions, lawyers say.
• “We’re into a pre-crime, Minority Report type of world where the FBI believes it can take constitutional rights away from anyone it thinks possibly might pose a threat in the future,” said Robert Olson, outside counsel for GOA.

What's unclear from the article, is that these people may have actually made threats. But this is the FBI, so who knows? Maybe they just heckled Joe at a campaign event.

I wonder if the forms complied with the Paperwork Reduction Act and we’re posted for public notice and comment. I didn’t see an OMB approval number on that form.

Sounds like someone should raise that issue.

Good point, or to add, the Privacy Act.

If someone forfeits their 2A rights, they should forfeit their voting rights too!

Never ever EVER sign something without your attorney reviewing it.

Attorneys.....

If someone is inclined to sign something like this, they are in need more help than any attorney can provide.

Only sign your pay check...

To be sure.

Yeah! BUT NOT this American!

I was never given any of these forms, so why am I being left out? I feel so marginalized. I want to have them give me one of these forms so I can write FU all over it.
Hmm, 2016-1029, was when Trump was in office, so it seems this was how the swamp creatures undermined the US Constitution and the President. If Hilary had won the election, the FBI wouldn't have to do this in secret.

WTF?
How the hell can you sign away a right?
And if you are not mentally capable of possessing a firearm, should you not also be precluded from voting, etc. I mean why stop at firearms...
Very slippery slope.

Anyone stupid enough to sign such a thing SHOULDN'T have a gun.

Millions effectively do it every other Nov when they vote.

Not sure what the issue is. We don't know who they put these in front of. There are plenty of very unstable people that shouldn't own a firearm. Sit in on domestic violence and protective order court cases. We have people threatening schools and their places of work. It wouldn't bother me at all if those people gave up their right to a firearm. It is more disturbing that some people think everyone is capable or safe to own firearms even when they have shown violence in the past.

If people on the street are a threat to public safety then they should either be incarcerated or institutionalized.

What makes you think these maggots, if barred from owning a gun, won't carry one anyway?

See Baltimore.

If you're free to walk the streets, you're free to own (and carry) a gun.

Stupidity allows many people to get 'pressured' or tricked

newly obtained documents and emails shed light on how the bureau apparently received a helping hand from medical facilities to waive gun rights from at least five people.
