Now let's see how many people obey it.
In fact, let's see how many state and local policemen enforce it.
There are a couple of good tests out there that tell how good a law is.
One is not how it will be used, but how it will be abused. This one seems like thare is a lot of opportunity in it for abuse.
That doesn't speak very highly for it. It will likely be abused by any number of scared Karens that simply want Joe Citizen to have his 2nd Amendment rights taken away from him.
There's no penalty in it for falsly reporting someone. Karen can run around making all sorts of false accusations and get off scott free when she really belongs in Hard Time prision for at least five years for denying an American citizen a basic Constitutional right.
Another true test of a law is how many people obey it. You'll have any number of people simply ignore it and refuse to comply.
On top of that there are going to be a goodly number of policemen that will simply not enforce it. I have read several dozen comments by serving policemen that commented on searches. They would simply knock on someone's door and when the homeowner answers they would say, "What? No guns here? Have a nice day." and leave.
Of course some of the younger black glove hot dog types will be thrilled to obey the sergeant or lieutenant looking to further his career at the expense of anyone else but the average cop will not be very thrilled to enforce whaat is clearly unconstitutional.
Then again there's a chance that SCOTUS will throw some if not all of it out.
As for me? I don't have anything to worry about because I lost all of my guns in a tragic boating accident.
