Police legally seizing guns under 'red flag' laws [See word about SAF in the article!]

Guns are removed for one year, but there is due process. Only family, roommates and police can petition the court for the civil order. The burden of proof is on the petitioner. A judge determines if the person is a danger to himself or others.

If anyone ever made such a report about me and I disagreed, it would permanently end our relationship. Marriage? Divorce, with no discussion of reconciliation (and I'm happily married). Children? Disowned. Unless in retrospect I believed they had been right, even their claimed perspective that they were doing the right thing would not matter.

Also, I assume the criteria for disarming Americans will expand over time, as will the duration of the disarmament. This will, like all other schemes to disarm the people, turn out to be a harmful idea.

And yet the NRA blames failuires in our mental health system. What do they think that means?

NRA chief cites ‘failures’ in school security, mental health system after Parkland shooting

>>After weeks of saying the authorities ignored what a nutjob the Parkland shooter was, what did you expect?

Exactly. Our side jumped on the “mental health” aspect to protect our guns and gave them the opening they needed to incrementally take our guns, one imagined threat at a time.

You know where this goes...

“You want to buy a firearm?”

“You must be crazy... denied.”

I wish Fox News would say to any advertisers who sheepishly dropped her that they will be offering sweethart advertising rates to their biggest competitors. I think that would be the most effective way to stop this knee jerk reaction by advertisers.

[Big Red Badger]

Far reaching indeed.

Since when do we have the RIGHT to tell advertisers where they can or can't advertise?

And if an advertiser wants to stop advertising somewhere; left them.

It's STILL a free country.

[Elsie]

Well; other than tobacco products, liquor, etal.

If so, you are Certifiable.

Sadly, I think they always have been.
