Would you disarm?
Push comes to shove and guns are outlawed would you disarm?

If the Government wants to disarm you, they will do just that. Sending swat teams door to door will quickly gather up the weapons, and if you resist, you'll either be shot or labeled a terrorist and detained indefinitely without a trial. 0 -

The first people will be taken by surprise, but then the word will get out and others will be prepared for a fight. It would take a lot of time and manpower for the gub'ment to organize and go to each house and remove all the firearms. Also you underestimate just how many people out there don't really have that much to lose and will go down fighting just for the sake of the fight.

I am referring to an all-out ban or confiscation. If the person has a legal right to otherwise possess the gun, I WILL NOT unconstitutionally, thus illegally, deprive that person of any firearms. On the other hand, there are consequences of one's actions, and if you commit a crime that revokes your rights, sorry, you committed the crime knowing the costs. There are those in this society that have proven time and time again that they can't be trusted to "legally" possess guns. Sorry, but that is a fact of life.
However, I do believe in second chances. If a person commits a crime, serves the time and punishment, and it's a one time thing, I do not feel a person should be punished for life, and thus they should have all rights restored. It's the repeat offender that should lose these rights for good.
But all of this is for another topic.[;)]
So would you confiscate this person's firearm or would you not?
He does not currently have a legal right of possession, but those you originally referenced would confiscate today, and you probably would as well. The person does not fit your qualifications in the first sentence above.
Permit me to be skeptical that somehow magically you and all your friends will stand on a principle in the future that you ignore today.
It's not my qualifications. Here is where I stand, point blank, popular or not. If a person is otherwise legally allowed to own a firearm, as it is today, i.e, no felony convictions, no history of mental instability, no history of domestic violence, then I will not disarm them or confiscate that weapon. I will not participate in a government gun grab just because they say that gun and this gun are illegal now. I look at it more from the individual involved rather than the gun involved.
Let me explain. If the individual has lost the right to own, possess a firearm, then that individual has been "banned" from gun ownership and, yes, I will do my job and seize that gun. If they try to ban guns just because they are guns and not the individuals, that is where I draw the line.
You know, there are many ways I can "enforce" the law. Whether it be through verbal warning, written warning, citation or arrest and jail, officer discretion goes along way in my neck of the woods.
There is no perfect solution, there is no way to make everyone happy. Some of us who honestly try to do the right thing, uphold the principles of our founding fathers and the constitution, sometimes we get caught between the rock and a hard place. I can not speak for any other officer, and perhaps I did speak out of line when referencing my co-workers; I truly do not know where they would stand or fall. I like to think I do, but one never knows until faced with the reality. I can only speak for myself and I let my conscience be my guide. As long as I try to do the right thing, then I will have no guilt or remorse.
The above restrictions on fire arms are incorrect. DV is not reason to disarm anyone for more than 48 hours to allow them to cool off. The Federal DV law is BS, no its CS!!![:(!]
CCW is not reason to arrest and confiscate if there are not aggravating circumstances like intoxication or 'out of control'! Then it should not permanently prohibit them for their rights.
The only time a person should be permanently prohibited is when they demonstrated through their actions that they will continue to victimize others violently.
Any person convicted of a domestic violence related crime is prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm under both federal and Georgia state law. Again, the consequence of one's chosen actions.
Other than that, I pretty much agree with your above statement.
True, part of the progressive plan to disarm us. The next thing you know any DUI conviction will have these restriction, then spiting on the street or a parking ticket will get you disarmed. It had to start some where, and like all of the progressive initiate laws they make it sound good/right, but it is just to get their foot in the door. Wise up before it's to late.
I have 35+ year ON THE STREET in LE and I can count on one hand the number of DV cases which would warrant the loss of this right, and I have answered thousands of DV call. Progressive BS at it's best!!![:(!]0 -
