@luminousalicorn varies by state, but in CA you have a right to a hearing prior to a 14-day hold, but you can waive that right

@luminousalicorn it's basically coercive because involuntary holds put you on a no-gun list and you look like you're not cooperating... -
@luminousalicorn so I guess the fiction is that you're freely signing in of your own will? competency to do that isn't usually in question - 2 more replies
