We all saw this one coming. Two weeks after Elliot Roger stabbed three people and shot three more, a trio of legislators from California (including Dianne Feinstein) have proposed a new federal law called “The Pause for Safety Act” which would allow anyone at any time to seek a “firearms restraining order” against an individual to prevent them from purchasing any new firearms and also confiscate any firearms they may already own. From Barbara Boxer’s website, here are the details we have at the moment:
The new legislation – The Pause for Safety Act – will include the following provisions:• One, it would help ensure that families and others can go to court and seek a gun violence prevention order to temporarily stop someone close to them who poses a danger to themselves or others from purchasing a firearm.
• Two, it would help ensure that families and others can also seek a gun violence prevention warrant that would allow law enforcement to take temporary possession of firearms that have already been purchased if a court determines that the individual poses a threat to themselves or others.
• Three, it would help ensure that law enforcement makes full use of all existing gun registries when assessing a tip, warning or request from a concerned family member or other close associate.
The scariest part of this proposed legislation is the idea that anyone can ask for one of these restraining orders. So, for example, if a gun control activist got ahold of a sign-in sheet from a local gun range, they could start spamming the judicial system with these “gun violence prevention warrants,” claiming that they believe these individuals to be about to commit a crime, and send a squad of police officers to their doorstep to confiscate their firearms. For their own good, of course.
Now, what was that line about no one wanting to take your guns?
the tyrants are running scared.
Which groups do Feinstein and Obama give weapons to?
1. al Qaeda <=====
2. US Troops
3. Nnarcoterrorists <=====
And to do it they LIE to Congress and the American people.
This cannot possibly end well.

They would get their butt sued off.
Blatantly unconstitutional. Of course, the liberals are pushing everything AND you never know what some idiot judge will do, so this WILL have to be attacked and defeated.
By the way, miss Romney yet? You don't get it? You will the more you supported King Obama by throwing Romney overboard. Have fun America.

O.K., remind me again please.
Why do I live in a country wherein basic Constitutional rights are under constant assault from crackpot legislators from California and Nevada?
I’m a fourth generation Texican. I ask myself, “what’s wrong with this picture?” The Answer?
Texas is still in it!
I don’t have any problem with family members having more influence in having a family member involuntarily hospitalized but the idea that a restraining order will stop someone from getting a gun is pure stupidity.
A fanatic rush for the Marxist finish line....the dash to destroy freedom continues.
You are about to unleash the combined wrath of the American majority, old lady.
Crude,but anyway... “ Make our day, bi ** h”.
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
At no point in history has any government ever wanted its people to be defenseless for any good reason ~ nully's son
I wonder if it ever crossed Diane Feinstein’s infinitesimally tiny brain that I might know better then she does what I need to protect myself and my family?
Rush Limbaugh nailed it years ago... Liberals believe they know best how to run your life, and they should have the power to do so.
So you don’t have a single liberal crazy in your family - cousin, aunt, uncle....
Step 1: Identify liberals/Democrats in your life.
Step 2: disown them
Step 3: Post signs on your front lawn to warn others if you suspect Democrats may live near you. They are a danger to American citizens.
I am not completely kidding. Eventually it will come to that.

This is good timing, but don’t expect a vote before the mid term elections. It is a great issue for republicans.
