Richmond Gun Rally

if the police take your guns you will not get them back

 

Probably for good reason. ^^^

 

That would totally happen if no one had guns. just sayin

 

Which is not supposed to be defined by cops. Seriously now, is the gun issue such a draw that you'd side with the cops?

 

The cops don't make the decision... are you not paying attention... tisk tisk

 

Sure they do. Cops routinely decide who they plan to harass, bust or beat. They fucking LOVE it.

 

I'm still waiting for a rally to protect our 21st amendment rights. I want to see thousands of patriots on the sidewalks in front of their state capitals with bottles of beer, bourbon, vodka, moonshine, gin or whatever and getting shitfaced. I'd totally be there.

 

Yeah... As I thought, you don't know how the red flag laws work.

 

Sure, anyone determined to be a "threat" to themselves or society has their guns (but not their knives, machetes, band saws or cutting torches) taken from them for safe keeping by the eager servants of law enforcement. Simple really.

What's really great about it is who gets to say a threat exists, basically anyone with an ax to grind. Even the cops.

 

You forgot ladders....

 

I admit, I never considered killing anyone with a ladder before. Do they make an assault model?

 

I have no idea... It's just that ladders always seem to be mentioned in gun threads for some reason.

 

I feel the red flag laws equal guilty until proven innocent. I feel all responsible, law abiding adult citizens should enjoy their 2nd amendment rights.
You make some large leaps in that last part about what I believe, so I'll say again, I feel all responsible, law abiding adult citizens should enjoy their 2nd amendment rights. Not one person described in the last part fits that description.

 

Yet, those people that don't fit your description can also buy guns legally... This is why there needs to be some kind of change with current gun laws.

 

You should leave the "assault rifle" out of this argument. In that situation you describe they should not have access to any form of firearm.

 

Any sort of stalking or domestic violence should be immediate grounds for the removal of a firearm in my opinion

 

Is this another non event

How many protesters had guns?

Close up photos in the first post

Seem to suggest a dozen people with guns......out of 6000 protesters


Yawn

 

I personally would not consider anyone behaving as you've described to be responsible or law abiding. The red flag laws aren't needed to restrict people like that from possessing firearms.

 

my concern is the possible abuse of these laws
