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. |

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
