This is a very slippery slope, when legislators pass laws that allow local authorities to confiscate guns from individuals based on "criteria" before any crime has been committed.

While we certainly see the benefit IF THE PERSON WAS ACTUALLY STOPPED from murdering people, but none of the people from whom weapons were taken have. And yes, it's a small number of people to begin with. but once the precedent has been set, once Florida gets a Democrat gun grabber governor and legislature all it takes is arbitrary rulings to be added, such as anyone who's ever posted on a forum and seems angry about political circumstances, could be added to the list. Or anyone who supports certain Presidents. Don't ever underestimate the radical Left.

More than 450 people in Florida ordered to give up guns under new law, report says

Here is a link to the full text of the law passed.

Statutes & Constitution :View Statutes : Online Sunshine

If a person identifies you as potentially harmful through nearly any act or threat of aggression, you could have your guns confiscated.

This is a VERY VERY dangerous law. The state has declared lawyers hired to defend actions by defendants to block these actions cannot be awarded attorneys fees, thereby discouraging attorneys from taking cases where these actions have been initiated.

This should be seen as a shot across the bow to the 2nd amendment.

Unbelievable leeway to do large scale confiscations.

Time to best take extra care what we all post on social media--regardless of the context.

"2. Identify the quantities, types, and locations of all firearms and ammunition the petitioner believes to be in the respondent’s current ownership, possession, custody, or control; and"


"(a) Upon receipt of a petition, the court must order a hearing to be held no later than 14 days after the date of the order and must issue a notice of hearing to the respondent for the same."


"(c) In determining whether grounds for a risk protection order exist, the court may consider any relevant evidence, including, but not limited to, any of the following:
1. A recent act or threat of violence by the respondent against himself or herself or others, whether or not such violence or threat of violence involves a firearm.
2. An act or threat of violence by the respondent within the past 12 months, including, but not limited to, acts or threats of violence by the respondent against himself or herself or others.
3. Evidence of the respondent being seriously mentally ill or having recurring mental health issues."
 
All the damn liberals will lose their guns for threatening violence against conservatives.

A total of 6 guns will be confiscated. Big deal.

Yes, taking guns away from mentally unstable people who have not killed anyone is a travesty. So is denying a drivers license to blind people until that actually run over someone in a crosswalk. Fucking idiot!

Since the corrupt liberals are the ones doing the grabbing, they will somehow be statistically exempt.
In the worst of times, this will largely affect those on the right I would conclude.

Comprehension is not your thing is it?
As was stated if you read, the problem is that this allows too much room for abuse.
Hopefully it will be challenged in court.

But being a sworn gun grabbing. ankle grabbing knee jerking twit, this is probably the best you can do.

Driving is not a Constitutional right and therefore 2nd amendment rights deserve better protection than driving PRIVILEGES. If you didn't have shit for brains you'd figure that out instead of saying such stupid things all the time.
 
Given that liberalism is a mental disorder the few lefties in Florida who might have had guns left to them by their parents ought to have them removed by whatever search/seizure means deemed necessary.

Did you know that most sheriffs in Florida are conservatives?

The problem is that when liberals, Socialists and Communists get back in control, they will abuse every law they can to disarm Americans.
We ALL know that to be true.
Losing Constitutional rights is funny to these scum.
 
Ah yes, all crazies should have an arsenal. LOL What a bunch of stupid asshole losers you people are.
You have to be a fucking nitwit to believe mentally deranged people should be out buying arms. The Florida law is aimed at those who have made threats and are dangers to their family and the community. Only a lunatic would want to see these people armed to the hilt.
 
Too much room for abuse. Explain that the the children of a co-worker who was a volunteer cop in a small town, and tried to calm a mentally unstable 96 year old man that had a history of threatening people with a pistol. That time, he did more than threaten, he killed a good man, a good father, and a credit to his community. Why was not his guns taken from his the first time he threatened someone without reason? Oh, because the NRA would have sued that small town, and they do not have the money that Russian supported organization has.

Read any good Antifa propaganda lately? Noticed who's making threats and have proven themselves to be dangers to their communities?

Congratulations on your demonstrated firm grasp of what constitutes
insanity. Now let's get some Florida sheriffs off their asses and raiding those liberal enclaves!

Let's say the right wing soon gets absolute power in Congress, the White House and the Supreme Court.
That conservative values dominate the nation and that right wing extremists are allowed to do as they please.
Then, we can declare liberalism and Socialism a dangerous disorder. Then we'll come for every gun owned by a Leftist.

Of course, then you'll be defenseless against all the heavily armed, right wing neo nazi Trumpettes seeking out those who don't think like them and you'll have no legal recourse and none are ever prosecuted.

Sounds reasonable & good to you??

(An illustration for those too dull to "get it")

Sorry,
Sometimes bad things will happen in a FREE society.
You don't revoke Constitutional rights because a few mentally ill leftists are doing bad things.

If he had a "history" of threatening people with a pistol then someone (the LAW) failed on many previous occasions.
These were CRIMES he had already committed.

As was the case in Parkland Florida, there were probably many warning signs leading up to this. And many chances to prevent it. Maybe people should stop ignoring early warning signs.

If you can't handle freedom, perhaps China or North Korea are more to your liking.
