Perhaps changing what/who is the mole would be more helpful?It is great to see this, but as many wins as we get, the tyrants seem to keep finding new ways to infringe. It's like playing whack-a-mole.
I’m sure the tyrants will start playing games with ammo soon. Make it painful to buy.It is great to see this, but as many wins as we get, the tyrants seem to keep finding new ways to infringe. It's like playing whack-a-mole.
Good posting.They are unconstitutional and unnecessary. These laws are for people who are emotionally disturbed and a threat to themselves or others.
There is already a mechanism in place for those people. In Maryland it's called an Emergency Evaluation Petition or EEP. If you are a danger to yourself or others, family members or law enforcement can EEP you. A doctor has to evaluate you and determine if you need to be hospitalized (you are a danger) or released (you are NOT a danger).
The problem is, doctors are releasing most of these people who are having an acute crisis, putting them right back on the street, often the same day. If the state actually properly implemented the EEP, there would be zero need for the red flag nonsense. Obviously liberal lawmakers prefer stripping as many gun rights as possible, so they have no incentive to fix the mental health laws. Ideally, a judge would see the catch-22 and tell the lawmakers to fix the underlying issue (mental health law and care reform) and get rid of the unconstitutional red flag atrocious.

Just like the virus, it’s a way for medical professionals to legislate and another path for school boards to shut people up/ back door legislate.They are unconstitutional and unnecessary. These laws are for people who are emotionally disturbed and a threat to themselves or others.

Moreover, Heller and McDonald expressly rejected the application of any “judge-empowering ‘interest-balancing inquiry’ that ‘asks whether the statute burdens a protected interest in a way or to an extent that is out of proportion to the statute’s salutary effects upon other important governmental interests.’” Heller, 554 U.
