I thought the NRA and gun advocates were all about "Enforcing the laws already on the books" instead of any new gun control laws?
Did you guys find a dime and pivot 180 degrees on it or something?
Nope. The law is arbitrary and subjective in this case. Confiscation is based on decision that someone may not be mentally stable enough. Burying is simply a precaution incase the slippery slope applies. Just like wearing a safety belt or owning a fire extinguisher, it's simply done just incase something terrible happens.
If you own guns in Kommiefornia and are not supporting Calguns Foundation or a like kind of Gun Law Advocacy group here in California then you need to rethink your position of owning guns in this Police State.
I don't see the problem in actually enforcing a law on the books. It was the solution offered by the NRA and gun advocates instead of new gun regulations. The laws are on the books there to keep them from people barred from owning guns (felons, mentally ill).
Mental illness is not random, it's determined by experianced medical professionals. The regulations vary from state by state, but all require a propesnity for violence and commission to a mental facility. California also requires court oversight of the process. It's not flipping a coin.
If you know of another way of determaning mental illness...I would like to hear it.
You are just pushing a catch-22. Scream about how no new gun laws (or changes to gun laws) should be in effect because there are laws on the book that are not enforced. However, when those laws are enforced you scream they shouldn't be enforced because you don't like them.

Try harder.
The law is arbitrary according to you, not according to the justice system of the state. So, you and the NRA really say, "No new gun control laws! We must enforce the laws on the books instead! Except the ones we don't agree with!"
If the law was so arbitrary, then the NRA lawyers would have had it struck down by now. This would be a much more "American solution" than encouraging people to become law breakers, wouldn't it?
The plan is to arrest all the peasants for some petty law they make as a catch all, so they no longer can "legally" possess a firearm of any kind.
Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someone is going to get killed defending their freedom..... Or trying to take an others.
