“a big problem with the system is that there’s no quick way to remove someone’s name from the system once their court-ordered weapon restriction ends.”
Which is exactly the way liberals want it.
They’d rather have the list populated by people who _shouldn’t_ be on it, rather than people who _should_.
A whole lot easier to disarm the compliant who are accidentally on the violent nutcase list, than violent nutcases on the list for being violent nutcases.
Corollary:
The problem with gun permits is they’re documenting the very people who demonstrably _don’t_ need documenting.
This Tehama County case shows that when they _do_ have a list of people who _shouldn’t_ have guns, authorities make a point of neglecting it.
