Do you think it is unconstitutional for a judge to take guns away from anyone who was stupid enough to threaten to shoot someone else? Do you think threatening to use a gun against someone else is free speech?

The percentage of women who have reported ex husbands or boyfriends they are trying to leave because of domestic violence who have gone on to be k**led by those they reported as making threats is huge. Police need to relieve those who make threats that can be verified of their right to own guns.

Cops will turn around and arrest someone for making false claims in a heartbeat.

The cases where we have seen people have guns confiscated in this red county have been people that are unhinged...when you threaten to shoot someone in an altercation you are by definition unhinged and out of control and need your guns taken away.

The worry and reality of mistakes is rhetorical, and while it may happen here and there it is a small price to pay, and happens far less than those who worry their heads about it believe it is.

My sister pulled that on me over an estate issue, she reported that I had threatened to shoot my father who had dementia.. The police there and the sheriffs in this county did their diligence. They determined that my fathers word meant nothing, I invited sheriffs in and told them that my sister was in the middle of stealing hundreds of thousands from my father's estate, that I have dozens of custom competition and higher end firearms, have competed all my life in police speed events and other venues, and have never threatened to use a gun against anyone in my life. They went back to her and told her that they would prosecute her for making felony false claims, and that she could easily find herself in prison. She was scared enough that she admitted that she had made that up.

Those who have anger management issues often find themselves involved with unhinged people that would make false claims, and quite frankly the people I have seen who have restraining orders out against them are unhinged people with histories of violence.

In this record number of red f**g confiscations there are very few that are not warranted, police are being very careful to have probable cause before going there.
