Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a bill making California the first state that allows family members to ask a judge to remove firearms from a relative who appears to pose a threat.
Brown announced the bill signing Tuesday. It was proposed by several Democrats and responds to a deadly rampage in May near the University of California, Santa Barbara.

I see more government induced domestic voilence in the future for California.
I’m sooooooooooooooooooooo shocked.
“who appears to pose a threat”
There’s a wide net...
Its a feeling I'm having more and more frequently, BTW.
Can’t separate the Clown from the Brown.
Welcome to the gulag, comrade. The children will be quizzed in school about their crazy gun owning relatives. There’s no chance that Kalefornians will survive their reeducation.
Worse, the escapees will try to do it all over again in the places they relocate and contaminate.
“911 what is your emergency?”
“My Sister’s husband had a bad day at work. Also, my sister wrecked their new mini-van this morning. My brother-in-law doesn’t know about it yet and he owns a gun. Please send an officer over there to get the gun before he finds out my sister wrecked their van.”
“Absolutely. What’s the address?”
If the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is a Constitutional Right, it can only be abridged by Court Action, no?
One of my loser nieces and sister-in-law on my wife’s side thinks I am “very scary” because I have guns and have hurt people in the past (military and LEO). I make her nervous even though she has never heard me raise my voice or seen any weapon I own. Moron.
Only family members?
Bill must have been amended if true.
Was supposed to allow family, relative, neighbors, your mailman, and anyone who happens to not like you and want to screw you over, to be able to get some political hack who was appointed to a cushy, lifetime judge job, to declare you to have no Constitutional rights because they do not like you or approve that you did not agree to have an Obama sign in your front yard, or etc etc.
“”””It was proposed by several Democrats and responds to a deadly rampage in May”””””
Once again. Just like the painkillers issue... a few people mess up and the government punishes everyone.
I used to think the saying: “when they take my gun, it will be empty and hot” was just a bumper sticker slogan.
Its becoming more plausible for me every day.
Why not the knives? Didn’t he kill some with knives?
This could be a good reason to avoid family Thanksgiving parties. You can pick your friends but you cannot pick your relatives.
Which other parts of the Bill of Rights does Jerry Brown think are only at the pleasure of your extended family?
“Sorry Dad, no First Amendment for you, we think your speech is too radical”
“We’ll get you a second Obamaphone and twenty bucks a month more in SNAP benefits if you’ll swear out this complaint against your second cousin twice-removed out in Bakersfield...”
Please send an officer over there to get the gun...”
Well, thank heavens at least they won’t be carrying it out in a plastic bag since Brown also banned those in California too.
Yep, the sun rose in the East today...
Another “feel good”, do nothing law that will only cause more problems...which is the intent.
