| red sox 777 05/21/19 3:39:49 PM #78: | I will say, I find the law in California (and maybe other states? I don't know what the rules are there) on temporary restraining orders to be very questionable. Right now, you have to turn in your firearms after being served with a temporary restraining order, before the hearing. The problem is that in issuing the TRO, the judge basically assumes everything the person requesting the restraining order says in their pleading is true, figuring that the truth will come out at the hearing. Well, the truth won't come out at the hearing if the person requesting the restraining order murders you first, knowing that for a period of a couple weeks, you will be disarmed. I suppose in practice most criminals don't think to first apply for TROs against their victims, but they could and this would totally eviscerate the utility of firearms in self-defense. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...
