Re: Looks like we will be getting universal background checks, no gun list etc.
while not ideal this at least calls for due process and going before a judge to rule. though it will probably end up flooding the court systems which are already overloaded.TexasJohnBoy wrote:Yes - if you're blocked, then the govt has 72 hours to prove its case in front of a court, with the same level of proof as they would show for a warrant.
72 hours is the delay that's already in place for NICS checks that are kicked back. I think this is reasonable, and puts the burden of proof on the govt to get a warrant, not on the citizen wrongly added to the list to prove their innocence.
...If I understand the bill correctly...
