I’m very confused; I thought law enforcement officers
already could do that VIA A COURT ORDER. I know of more than one instance when
a local judge ordered guns removed for cause, but allowed the defendants’
attorneys to arrange for the sale of the guns so the defendants could pay legal
fees.
Are Illinois lawmen and lawmakers trying to make it possible
for police to arbitrarily SEARCH homes of those with FOID revocations WITHOUT
the due process of a court issued search warrant? Having a FOID does not automatically mean
someone OWNS A GUN. For instance, I could not legally take my adult daughter to the range before she obtained a FOID
card. She had a good time at the range,
but she never did buy herself a gun. (BTW,
she no longer needs a FOID; she now lives in WISCONSIN.)
There is also the issue of when a household has two or more
people with FOID cards. Does law
enforcement plan on confiscating guns from all residents of a home based on the FOID revocation
of one?
