La Police Headquarters of Padua has decided to take a hard line when it comes to releasing the firearms license. Licenses will no longer be authorized to all those people who become protagonists of domestic violence. The mistreatment will therefore be followed with greater attention: the stalking episodes, the warnings, but also the serious ones family quarrels and neighborhood will be punished with the precautionary seizure of pistols or rifles. The actual offense, therefore, is not important for this specific assessment.
The same goes for who is part of the police, a necessary clarification after the terrible massacre that took place a few weeks ago in Cisterna di Latina. The owners of weapons are entered in a database to be consulted at any time and the withdrawal may even concern historical bayonets and weapons of artistic valueor. Since last year, the Paduan police headquarters have decided to reject 94 requests for firearms licenses due to the absence of adequate psycho-physical requirements.
The hard line is also due to the fact that violence within the home is starting to worry in the Venetian province: there have been attempted murders, willful injuries, threats and beatings, as a result, no sign of abuse will be “tolerated”.
