It Doesn't Even Work On Trains. Why Would You Think It Would Work In Court?
-
The Northern California school shooter told the court in February that he was complying with a restraining order because he had no guns. He was lying, but they went with his assertion anyway, because the courts, in cases like ascertaining compliance, use the honor system. But officials say that there's no real choice, because investigating every single case like that would be practically impossible, not to mention prohibitively expensive and diverting resources. What can and should they do, then? If you can't be sure someone who isn't supposed to have guns is really complying with the rule, what can be done? (Los Angeles Times)
