Public Comments for: SB744 - Firearm transfers to another person from a prohibited person.
I support SB744 because it strengthens protections for domestic violence survivors.
I support this bill because guns increase the homicide risk of women in domestic violence situations by 500%.
I support all of these bills as each would lessen the chances of gun violence and inevitably save lives.
I support SB744 because it strengthens protections for domestic violence survivors by establishing a clear process to separate a person from their firearms who has been convicted of a domestic violence offense, or who is subject to a protective order.
As a mother of two young children, there is nothing more important to me than building a safer community for our state's kids, one that is free from the fear and constant threat of wanton gun violence. I strongly support any measure -- large or small-- that brings awareness and common sense regulation of deadly weapons, that removes firearms from those who threaten themselves or others, and diminishes the capacity of firearms to kill innocent people.
We MUST have stricter gun laws. At this point its common sense. Please protect our children and have stricter gun laws in order to keep our children safe at school and beyond.
