Quote:If the person is identifiable online, the threat is reported, and the court deems the death threat worthy of a felony, then the felon can no longer own a firearm.


Current laws handle your scenario fine.

You describe a scenario which requires the involvement of a court. The new law would allow officers to determine reasonable cause to temporarily diffuse the situation without having to wait for the courts.


Plenty of people who were involved with mass shootings posted their intentions online prior to taking action and none were stopped.
