It sounds nice, but it won’t pass constitutional muster.

You can’t take away a person’s rights unless they lose them via a court trial or confession, or they are certified incapable of taking responsibility for themself.

This thing simply can’t meet that bar.

“You can’t take away a person’s rights unless they lose them via a court trial or confession, or they are certified incapable of taking responsibility for themself.”

Sure you can if you’ve got a Marxist judge.

Remember that the way our court system works the Court nominally cannot even consider the act until after many guns will have been siezed.

The Left prefers to ask for forgiveness rather than permission because 1) they know the Republicans aren’t likely to hold their feet to the fire once they can assert that the “ship has sailed” and 2) they know they’ll be able to disarm many even if later slapped down.

Your faith in the federal gov't to hold to "constitutional muster" is quaint. Bless your heart.

"It sounds nice, but it won’t pass constitutional muster."

Do you honestly think that matters anymore?
