"because they feel that person is a threat"
AHA! The unintentional Freudian slip!
Because they FEEL that person is a threat, never mind actually assembling "clear and convincing" evidence with an adversarial hearing at which the respondent can present a rebuttal, BEFORE THE FACT.
The current construction of the majority of these statutes fails that due process mandate - but that's just what these snowflakes WANT, and politically risk-averse lawmakers have been caving in. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. � Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
