What happens when you are defined as unstable?

The new law in Florida makes me out to be a risk. The law allows them to seize guns and ammo from people who are considered to be a threat. The first person who was victimized was an Army veteran. I went and read the law. I don't feel like I should have to turn in my guns but it's like the law was written to take my guns away specifically. Maybe I need to get rid of my guns? I hate the idea of yielding my control of my life and the guns make me feel like I have some control. I am a veteran. I am a combat veteran. Maybe I am unstable.

Thinking about them taking my guns paradoxically makes me MORE of a threat because I feel fear, anxiety, anger, and I want to fight them if they come or kill myself. Neither thing would happen if they just left me alone. You know it could go horribly wrong horribly fast if they show up to take your guns. They are probably scared and ready to gun you down already. You defend yourself from someone trying to steal your shit just because they said so and now you are dead or in prison. All off which was avoidable if they just left me alone.
