New gun law threat to constitutional rights – Herald and News

The Oregon Legislature adjourned last Friday with a parting shot at law-abiding gun owners and a resounding whack across the rump of constitutional rights of all Americans. It involves passing along to the governor a bill that will permit untrained or certified individuals to petition a judge to have a third partys Second Amendment rights to possess firearms for lawful purposes suspended.

The bill, SB719A, will permit most any relative, former housemate, police officer or educational professional to file a motion to have their rights suspended under the weakly defined extreme risk restraining order parameters that most any former domestic partner could be denied their rights for most any specious justification.

This action reeks of the means and skullduggery anti-freedom factions begin their campaigns to change governments into leftist regimes by undermining the constitutional forms of free nations.

Their failure to pass gun prohibition legislation through the federal government relegates them to plan B where they resort to the same trickery and underhanded tactics that did not work then and now are trying to push through many anti-constitutional measures through big buck financing of the same junk bills into state legislatures.

They seem to feel they can hornswaggle local government much easier than federal administrations.

The measure the Oregon Democrats are seeking to pass into law faces serious constitutional questions of denying a right without any criminal conviction of wrongdoing and only on the strength of an accusation but by prohibiting an accused their right to due process before personal property is confiscated by the government in violation of the Fifth Amendment.

Those that are unsatisfied with the current government are attempting to change it with methods not in good faith processes but in ways that only breed disrespect for the rule of law just to denigrate the system.
