Biden admin lawyers urge Supreme Court to allow warrantless gun confiscation ahead of major case

President Joe Biden’s administration is urging the Supreme Court to impose restrictions on the Fourth Amendment protections and permit what Forbes described as “warrantless gun confiscation.”

The news comes at the same time the White House confirmed Biden will sign an executive order on gun control.

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Wednesday for a case — Caniglia v. Strom — that will ultimately determine whether the “community caretaking” exception to the Fourth Amendment’s prohibition against warrantless searches and seizures extends to private residences.

The case stems from a 2015 incident in which police deceptively seized firearms from a Rhode Island couple — Kim and Edward Caniglia — who had engaged in a heated argument. Neither Kim nor Edward were ever accused of a crime, nor was either person ever deemed to be an imminent threat to themselves or others. Police argued they seized the firearms from the couple under the “community caretaking” exception to the Fourth Amendment.

  1. Maybe if the FBI had done their job the Boulder massacre wouldn’t have happened. Warrantless gun confiscation will do nothing but start a civil war.
