Dude Registers Gun and Gets Confiscated

Shall not be infringed. People need to stand up for themselves.

He (or she) now officially has injury, which gives standing, to a case to head all the way up to SCOTUS if needed.

I don't buy new guns, because they have to be registered.

Maybe he’s setting the law up to be tested in court. Gotta get it to the Supremes somehow. Let’s face it, when first approached about the gun he should have said “funny thing, I registered it, then went fishing and the damn thing fell out of my boat in lake liawatha.”

Lesson: never, never, never ever register a gun.

It is situational!
I don't particularly like the "take it first" comment, but do you remember the situation it was concerning?
At any rate UK, we have it soooo much better than you poor schmucks do with our constitutional amendments being up held, I will take "Trumps America" over your shit hole country any day. Forewarned is forearmed and we saw you people cave in years ago and give up your weapons. If that EVER happens to the US the rest of the world is toast! You better pray we drag this mess out and prevail, it will have a direct bearing on your miserable future as well as ours.
Get your nasty attitude in the right position (pun intended) and help your country regain its
freedom ......

No lawyer will take the case to try win it, he will want to have everyone send him cash and he will want to be paid well for wasting your time and everyones donation.

Never ever call guns 'guns'....

call them 'PROPERTY' !

Call everything property (even your kids)

It drives the state agents nuts, and binds their hands even more.

They've taken tougher cases and won, like the one about open carry in Hawaii. If this guy had his guns taken without a warrant then lawyers will be all over it.

To win a case in high court is a lawyers career-maker. It's a quantum leap up the chain of command towards judgeship.

This is how it's done !
(no excuses !)

Detained for Open Carry, Portland, Maine 26MAY2012

The Title 15A & 17A mentioned are Maine Revised Statute Titles

Terry v. Ohio, 392 U.S. 1 (1968) - [link to supreme.justia.com (secure)]
In justifying a particular search or seizure, a police officer must be able to point to specific and articulable facts which...reasonably warrant the search. This could be a reasonable suspicion ... that his safety or that of others was in danger, or that a specific crime was being committed.

Delaware v. Prouse, 440 U.S. 648 (1979) - [link to supreme.justia.com (secure)]
Mainly applies to vehicles, but says that except in those situations in which there is at least articulable and reasonable suspicion that a motorist is unlicensed or that an automobile is not registered, or that either the vehicle or an occupant has otherwise violated the law, stopping an automobile and detaining the driver in order to check his driver's license and the registration of the automobile are unreasonable under the Fourth Amendment. Meaning, you can't stop and search someone just to find out if they might be a criminal. You have to have a reason to think they are a criminal before you stop them.

Brown v. Texas, 443 U.S. 47, 52 (1979) - [link to supreme.justia.com (secure)]
When a police officer stops and demands identification from an individual without any specific basis for believing he is involved in criminal activity (reasonable suspicion) it is a violation of that person's 4th Amendment rights and can't be allowed. In sum, you're not required to give your ID to a police officer unless he has an articulable reason to suspect you of committing a crime.

U.S. v. DeBerry, 76 F.3d 884, 885 (7th Cir. 1996) - [link to casetext.com (secure)]
Essentially says that police are allowed to ask you any questions they want (just like any stranger on the street can ask you any questions they want), the police CAN'T, however, seize someone unless they have "a reasonable belief and not a mere hunch that the person carrying the gun was violating the law."

The scenario you suggest is my greatest fear.

what a fucking dick (the perp not the cop)

if your gonna be walking around carrying a gun and people see you course the police are gonna question you

jesus how stupid and arrogant can people be ? and they wonder why theres so many mass shootings

No bootlickers are going to come here and defend these bastards....

Most people really dont know what registration is...

Open carry isn't illegal in many parts of the U.S. However guys like the one in that video only do it to provoke people and the cops.

Says the indoctrinated slave.

This is how a well informed man handles his business.

The 'perp' as you say is a law student at the University of Maine.. about 1 mile up the road.

We know and understand the difference between registration and background checks. We know how easily one can be logged and turned into the other over night and basically turning the lawful into criminals.

Permits are the same.

Thatshow it went down in Europe. Register first, confiscate second. CA needs to rise like NY did to Cuomo. NY shoved the SAFE act down hist throat.

I live in California and gun rights are a lost cause. Every single year they pass more anti-gun bullshit. I heard the newest one is going to require guns to be locked up every time you leave your house.

Wow, what is perfectly legal in most states can send you to prison in California. They want people to register their guns so they can confiscate them, then imprison them.

The fuse is about to run out. They are going to start something they can’t undo. It’s coming.

So fucking what ? Ted Bundy was a law student but he was one of the biggest psychos of all time

depending upon YOUR location, read and learn the penalties for "housing" an unregistered "gun".

IF you are located in a free zone where registration under state law is not a demand but must follow federal law,learn the penalties.

SO THEN understand THAT demanding a permit for CONCEALED CARRY IS total bs as THEN YOU ARE REGISTERED and they know.....right down to being able to run your name,address,license plates vehicle etc.

bringing us right back to only the law abiding obeying the law which IS a set up for confiscation.

do the risks outweigh the penalties ?
and of course in certain states you don't have to have a permit for CCW, can "carry" firearms in your vehicle as under the law it is an extension of the home etc.

PS & for all suggesting burying them-we would have already "missed the boat" to be at that point in time.

I lost all my guns on a boat ride in the ocean.

LOL !!!!!!! why doesn't anyone TOUCH the bs laws in NYC starting w/ limitations on purchases and a time frame/waiting period in between purchase OF ONE firearm ? never mind the rest of their bs.
NRA doesn't dare go there.

I lost all my guns in a boating accident.

So whats the story on this guy and his issue.

Everybody I know has dozens of firearms and not one person has ever showed up to inquire about them. Same masturbatory fear since the mid 80s. All that's happened since then is they bought more? Ammo got more expensive is about it.

if they really ever clamp down, they will trace the authors of this good ol' joke and do a search of property and premises.

had an argument on another site where someone said to POST PICTURES OF THEIR favorite possessions/firearms -
i simply asked WHY to publicly post this crap and a firestorm followd regarding rights and other bull SHIT.
i simply replied why ADVERTISE YOUR ITEMS as problems might follow from tracing YOU,break ins following or simply harassment ?
too simple a response to them.

he should have said go to any website for firearms and make a WISH LIST not declaring what YOU own.

A part of the problem is that many of these peoole are trying to do the right thing according to the recent AW registration laws in CA. The laws are so confusing that you practically need to be a lawyer to figure them out. If somebody send in a registration request and something is out of compliance, CA DOJ should send information on how to correct the problem instead of just showing up to confiscate.

If you have a faulty tail light or a cracked windshield on your car. you get a fix it ticket They don't confiscate your car. It is criminal how CA DOJ operates.
