An inmate in a Weld County, Colo., prison filed a “red-flag” petition in February against the sheriff in charge of the facility, Steve Reams. The inmate claimed the deputies working at the prison were intimidating the inmates in their “residence” by carrying shotguns. A judge immediately dismissed the inmate’s petition, but the flagged sheriff, who has been an outspoken opponent of the new law, said the incident further proves how problematic it is.

The standards are reversed from what they should be.
"Clear and convincing" should be the benchmark for issuing the writ, and "preponerance" should be the burden for tossing it out.
Judges must always defer to the right, and strictly apply BoR limitations. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so. Indeed I would go so far as to say that the underdog is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let's not have any native militia or police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order. — Adolf Hitler, April 11, 1942. (Source: "Hitler's Table-Talk at the Fuehrer's Headquarters 1941-1942", Dr. Henry Picker, ed. (Athenaeum Verlag, Bonn, 1951).) |
