A plan by police in Buffalo, N.Y., to begin confiscating the firearms of legal gun owners within days of their deaths is drawing fire from Second Amendment advocates.
but I thought confiscation was never their intention
quote:registration ALWAYS leads to confiscation
Buffalo Police Commissioner Daniel Derrenda said at a press conference last week that the department will be sending people to collect guns that belong to pistol permit holders who had died so "they don't end up in the wrong hands." The department will cross reference pistol permit holders with death records and the guns will be collected when possible, he said

The state law says that if the permit holder dies, the estate has 15 days to dispose of the guns or turn them in to authorities, who can hold the weapons up to two years. LoHud.com reported that violation of the law by survivors is a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail and a fine.
quote:selective enforcement...here we go
The state law has been in the books for years but not enforced, King said. The Erie County Sheriff's Office told FoxNews.com that it learned about the Buffalo police decision after the announcement, but has no plans to invoke it on a regular basis as the city of Buffalo does.

So they don't give the option for a heir to the weapons if said heir can get a permit?

I'm thinking every parent should have a bill of sale to their heirs signed for all of their weapons that is notarized and becomes effective on the day of their death.

From the article:
quote:
"They're quick to say they're going to take the guns," said Tom King, president of the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association. "But they don't tell you the law doesn't apply to long guns, or that these families can sell [their loved one's] pistol or apply to keep it."

Seems like they're going off a permitting issue here, and I'm not sure if that would automatically get around that.
Screwiness.

Gun trust would be handy here.
Dead person would not be the legal owner.

I vote that TrueTiger be allowed an exemption such that his sig pic can be much bigger.
Oh ... and don't come for my guns ... they are willed to my sons. So frick off.

Are inherited firearms a rising cause for alarm?

I know your mind doesn't function in this manner...
but why in the F@#$ing hell should I have to apply to a govt entity to keep something they have no right to in the first place.
esp a constitutional right? if my father dies, do I have to apply to keep my first amendment rights?

You think a family should have to apply to keep their loved ones' possessions?

No one wants a bunch of guns sitting around in an attic or closet with no one taking responsibility for them.

Some people are such winy little babies about this stuff.

While I agree with you, you have your amendments confused.
