It's that way in MS, I hate that law.
If your SO/family calls the cops on you, they confiscate all weapons, doesn't really have to be proven, he/she said and gone. I know of a neighbor calling on a father and 17yo son arguing in their backyard, they rolled up arrested both and took over a dozen of their guns. It took him 3k and over a year to get them back. |

I don't understand.
The article says; Senate Bill 197 would prevent people who have been convicted of domestic violence from owning or carrying firearms.
This is already a federal law, isn't it? I see no mention of "domestic violence suspects", but isn't it already true that if you are charged with Domestic Violence, you have to surrender your firearms until the matter is resolved in court? |

Yeah, I can see an angry jilted wife making up a bogus DV charge to get a spouse's guns taken away for spite.
That said, if you are found guilty of DV...well whatever bad comes your way you earned, IMHO. |

The article says: "Senate Bill 197 would prevent people who have been convicted of domestic violence from owning or carrying firearms." The proposed legislation says: "When a court subjects a person to a protection order to prevent domestic violence or a protection order that prohibits the person from possessing or controlling firearms or other weapons, or the court convicts a person of a misdemeanor or felony domestic violence offense, the court shall require the person to relinquish any firearm or ammunition in the person's immediate possession or control or subject to the person's immediate possession or control. In the case of a person who is served in court with a protection order to prevent domestic violence, and in the case of a person who is served with a mandatory protection order prohibiting the person from possessing or controlling firearms or other weapons, the person must relinquish any firearm or ammunition within 24 hours. In the case of a person who is served outside of the court with a protection order to prevent domestic violence, the person must relinquish any firearm or ammunition within 48 hours. However, a court may allow a person up to 72 hours to comply if the person demonstrates to the satisfaction of the court that he or she is unable to comply within 24 or 48 hours, as applicable." No conviction is required. The court has only to 'subject a person to a protection order' . |

The guy who started the thread just got out of jail, and what was being posted could have been used against him in the up-coming trial. From what I remember, in Arizona, you can be convicted of DV for a verbal altercation with a college room mate (living in the same apartment), or a girl you are dating, or a relative... The law, as quoted, was unreal. |

I was replying to this, mainly: The article says;
Senate Bill 197 would prevent people who have been convicted of domestic violence from owning or carrying firearms. As in, the article is FOS and misrepresents the specifics of Senate Bill 197. That is my point. The bill would do much more than the article states. In addition, this bill codifies into state law the idea that a judge can revoke rights simply by rendering a decision. That's not something to celebrate. |

If you want to help, several members of this site are running recall efforts against four gun grabbers in CO.
Copy/paste from the home town forum. This weekend is the official kick off to our petition drive against CO State Sen. Angela Giron. Our group, "Pueblo Freedom and Rights" is a 501(c)4 issues committee. We are not affiliated with any other group in Colorado. We are doing this on our own. We had a great day at the gun show today, and gathered over 1000 signatures. That is nearly 10% of the signatures needed on the first day of petitioning. We could use your help spreading the word, and especially financially. This is being funded almost entirely by a member of this site and his brother. To donate to our effort, visit our rally.org site. We are using rally.org instead of paypal because pp is anti gun. Follow our progress on facebook here And check out our website at http://www.pueblofreedomandrights.org Here are the two latest news articles about our recall. denver post pueblo chieftan about us. and Pueblo Chieftan with some Dems calling us "fuzzy thinkers" We can succeed here in Pueblo, and help the rest of the state while we are doing it. Please help us out. |

I have no issue with this, if we're talking about the type of men who beat the hell out of their wives daily, and it never ends. But, it's only really gonna fuck it up more for people falsely accused.
side story; Had a co-worker who used to work security at a womens shelter.. on the night shift. He lasted the longest of their original crew.. He was the only one who didn't take a bite of the forbidden fruit, if you know what I mean. |

What's worst is that the court does not give the person who gets arrested their guns back even if they are not convicted 99% of the time.
