WA Goes After Pre-Crime: Gun Confiscation Proposed For Those "Likely To Commit Violence In The Near Future"by Tyler Durden, Sep 27, 2016 9:10 PM According to the Wall Street Journal, if the measure passes, Washington would become the second state after California to allow family members and police to petition a judge to take guns from a person considered a danger. Connecticut, Indiana and Texas have similar laws, but only police can ask a judge to do so. Aside from all the obvious issues surrounding unreasonable seizures of personal property, another key issue with the bill is the broad definition of people who can petition authorities to confiscate someone's guns. Per the measure's definition of "Family or Household Member", any disgruntled former "dating partner" could allege mental instability and have someone's personal property confiscated as a form of retribution. www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-09-27/wa-goes-after-pre-crime-gun-confiscation-proposed-those-likely-commit-violence-near-
