This places the burden of proof on the appellant, which is not where it belongs. The government needs to establish a clear and present danger before restricting any citizen’s constitutional rights, and should suffer harsh penalties if it errs. The citizen should not have to establish his right to keep and bear arms; it already exists as a birthright.

This legislation is clearly written by someone who has no understanding of law or the Constitution, or else has a not-so-hidden agenda.
