Actually, I have no problem with this particular law -- but most gun laws are just right wing BS.

Although, I would not want police to be forced to return weapons when there is any chance the shooter used the gun improperly. For example, if there had not been a public outrage over Zimmerman, the police probably would have returned his gun and patted him on the back for shooting an unarmed kid.

Also, I was pointing out that most gun laws are sponsored by right wing Republicans who support Ted Nugent, the Minute Men, Zimmerman, NRA, and similar worthless people and organizations.

Crux of the matter, don't really like right wing bigots getting accolades on DU.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
