Nassau Legislator Proposes Bill To Take Guns From Psych Patients​

 

[Tisto]

Are there not already laws that cover this ? Am I wrong in believeing that this was part of NYSAFE ? Perhaps this nitwit should find out what the law is before proposing something redundant.

More political theatre

The difference is if you want a gun you are by definition a pysch patient.

"Take the guns first. Due process later."

How would that work exactly, anyway ? Say the boys with the cowboy hats and purple ties take you in for observation because you weresinging patriotic songs while walking along a path in the park. Clearly, you're likely insane. So now you're in the rubber room wearing a jacket that makes you hug yourself all day. Then, the word comes that you possess a pistol permit. Your gun is at home, all locked up in a safe. How will it be recovered ? Your dog can't open the safe because he doesn't know the combination, and even if he did, he lacks opposable thumbs. The cat and goldfish aren't going to help much. Are they going to bust down your door and take an oxy-acetylene torch to your safe ?

Nope.

They'll just take the whole fucking safe and open it later.

The answer is maybe. The police would get a search warrant and have means to open a safe. That why these people want this law. The problem with the law is under SAFE , federal law and the constitution, one must be committed before losing certain rights and just being evaluated.
