Cali is now like a bunch of cans on a string. These idiots are gonna trip the alarm and wake up the sleeping giants. Last time there was an attempt to confiscate weapons was at Lexington and concord and we know how that went.

Oh they hold off your weapons for 21 ones if someone nearby thinks you might hurt someone?

If the popo come and take your shit, you're not getting it back in 21 days. This is an absolute abuse of power.

Slippery slope.

Clear violation of Constitutional rights here nonetheless.

I wonder what percent of 'reportedly' mentally unstable people willingly comply?

Does it prove your sanity (or your insanity) if your answer is "Molon Labe" and clearly stating your understanding of the second amendment?

I guess we'll see.

You know what happens when you report to the police that someone mentally ill is a threat to others or themselves? They are involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital where they don't have access to their guns anyway. From several cases I've read about, it is extremely difficult to actually get your firearm back from the police after they have confiscated it. Clear attempt to disarm people that don't have the means to lawyer up against the police.

Here's a thought, what happens when you report cops for megalomania?

So when do we organize mass protests?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for such things, but I think we're well past the point of protests.

You'd think the title is sensationalized, but it isn't. Person A claims Person B is a danger to themselves or others for X Reason and that calls for an immediate concession of their weapons until they are deemed mentally fit. I wonder what the criteria for a "healthy mind" is?

Questioning your govt = an unheathly mind (in their eyes)
