Curtis has stated that he is a strong defender of the Second Amendment, but he also believes more should be done “to keep firearms out of the hands of violent individuals and the mentally ill.”
This bill, Curtis said, would put in place processes to prevent dangerous individuals from obtaining or possessing a firearm.
Other representatives weighed in on the bill, addressing topics such as allowing law enforcement to take action when a person is considered dangerous and improving criminal background checks. |

Ex parte orders facially violate the 5th, 6th and 14th Amendment due process commands. This is the stripping of a fundamental right without being able to confront and cross examine witnesses, and to present exculpatory rebuttal evidence. It is the very essence of Prior Restraint.
I hope a case reaches the SCOTUS and enough of the justices have their heads on straight to strike down this unconstitutional nonsense. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
