[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3095400, member: 5391"] Agreed: just because we disagree with some of what they do now, please don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Given adequate documentation that an individual is a threat, (such as there seems to have been with Cruz) I don't think a law providing for the seizure and/or surrender of any firearms possessed by that person is unreasonable. Please note what I just wrote. [B]Given adequate documentation of a credible threat[/B], I support such a law. What I don't support is a law permitting such an order because your neighbor up the street decides to turn you in just because he or she doesn't like guns, and you have them. The subject of the order should be allowed to contest it [B]before[/B] the order is issued and all evidence presented would have meet a higher legal standard than preponderance of the evidence. I suggest clear and convincing. Also, it strikes me as just that the person making a frivolous complaint should be subject to heavy damages. [/QUOTE]
