Welp, you’re a hell of a lot more trusting than I am.
I know, I have the same fears as you. I believe it will pass constitutional muster.
There are mush more restrictive laws on the books right now in every state that allow the “authorities” to take a person into custody for 48-72 hours for mental evaluation IF it is determined that they are an “imminent” threat to themselves and/or others.
Also, people may be taken and quarantined indefinitely IF it is determined they have a dangerous, communicable disease.
This will empower disgruntled neighbors & angry ex’s & anyone who doesn’t like your owning guns.
Don’t forget the KGB & Stasi had five informants for every agent. WILLING informants.
Watch for liberal states to bring back snitch hotlines (”report an illegal gun in your neighborhood and you don’t have to give your name!”).
Trump is trying to walk back what he said that gave Dianne Feinstein the warm fuzzies and he is now saying to the NRA “Oh ye of little faith!” but,
The goose is cooked, the jig is up, the fat is in the fire, and the cat is out of the bag.
Things are different now (Red Dawn).

If there is no actual evidence of threats or danger supported by actual evidence and not just hearsay, the door for abuse is open wide. Particularly in divorce cases, where it can be used as an offensive weapon.
It’s an entirely different issue when threats can actually be corroborated by actual evidence. Evidence such as visible erratic behavior, psychiatric and psychological reports, police reports, public threats, internet postings, writings, videos and similar communications.
There is still possible and probable abuse regardless.
