The guy is an idiot and should be in jail.

Shooting up a friend’s car is not the act of a model citizen.

However the idiots we have in our legislatures always do something to make matters worse.

The guy should be jailed for shooting up the car, and it should be a multi year stay in prison. Passing a law with vague or fuzzy limitations only serves to make it possible to be used on innocent victims.

In other words, the cops already had a law on the books that would punish the guy and evidence (damage to the vehicle) to make a solid court case.

Exactly, it’s already a crime to shoot up a car.
Use the laws you have, you don’t need new ones.

Exactly. It’s a typical lefty incremental foot in the door move. Red Flag Law was never required to arrest this guy and confiscate his guns as evidence.

The fascists CHOSE a case such as this to set a precedence. Of course Red Flag Laws are great, look at the first guy convicted. They will do it again and again and again. Then when it seems normal a safe, they will go after someone who hasn’t committed a crime yet.

Sounds like they’re looking for an instance to enact this law....so they can apply it more often, for far less “offenses”.
