I reminded him of his oath, for all the good it will do.    Unfortunately no one is running against him. So best I can do is not fill in the little oval by his name.

All explained in this clip from the movie...



“We arrest individuals who have committed no crime.”
“But they will ...”

Now the authorities just need to start looking for precogs.

Lorimor:
If an individual is deemed "dangerous," why isn't the individual being detained?

Again, more legislation that attempts to place the blame on the tool, not the weapon.   

eelstrebor1:
I guess you'll need to call the police every time you have an argument with someone or they might call the cops on you and claim that you're a dangerous person. Just a difference of opinion can cause some issues. And the part about returning your firearms if you're found "not guilty" sounds great but the proposal doesn't say when they should return your firearms. The proposal needs work if they seriously intend to go forward with it. I would prefer that it be scrapped because it punishes someone that hasn't committed a crime and red flag laws are going to keep the courts so busy that they might not be able to get to all cases within 21 days. These so-called red flag laws are unnecessary and wouldn't even be considered if LE strictly enforced existing laws.

depserv:
We don't want thought criminals being armed do we?  And how about deplorables?  Do we want people like that armed?  And then there are those who cling to their guns and Bibles...  We all know that right wing extremists are more dangerous than the poor misunderstood Muslims.

But don't worry, our caring big brother only wants to protect us.  He knows who the bad guys are.  We have nothing to worry about. 

So the question is, is Fortenberry stupid, or evil?  In the final analysis I suppose it doesn't really matter (at least in this life); he's worthless either way.
