Tiberius Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Really like this law. You act violent, you turn over your guns https://www.pumphreylawfirm.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-floridas-red-flag-law/ Quote In response to the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, the state enacted a “red flag” law that allowed judges to order potentially dangerous individuals to surrender their firearms.

Florida is not anti gun by any stretch but we try and fix problems rather whine. Red flag laws are a relatively new development, so only ~9 states currently have them. I would expect we see more states enact them in the coming years. Also, not all red flag laws are equal. New York has one but it clearly failed to prevent the Buffalo shooting despite the gunman having previously been reported for threatening violence. When enacting a red flag law, states should look to see what has and has not worked with similar laws in other states to make their laws better. 1

I stated in a different thread that I am thankful for it because one of my students had expressed openly online that they want to shoot my school up, but she ended up being arrested and removed. I stated then that I am surprised that all states don't have something similar. Both sides probably win voters by being obstinate.

When enacting a red flag law, states should look to see what has and has not worked with similar laws in other states to make their laws better. Right. So a pro 2A gun enthusiast looks at how a law that should have prevented this tragedy was completely disregarded and mass murder ensued. They then consider that they, as good and decent citizens, never shot anyone, never threatened anyone, are of no threat to anyone, and simply want to be left alone. Thereafter, politicians they view as not working in their best interest, who designed the law that was ignored that might have prevented the tragedy, come around and propose new, perhaps more restrictive laws to be followed, likely soon to be ignored again. All the while, the pro 2A gun enthusiast is painted as the crazy in this scenario by people who hold different values and want to blame these tragedies on them. I don't own guns, and I'm for sensible gun regulation, but it's completely understandable why these folks feel this way. 2 1 2
Orlando Buffalo Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 We know that the Uvalde scumbag should not have been allowed to buy a gun since he was living at his grandfathers address. The checks we currently have should be enough to stop many of these shootings if the paperwork is handled properly. Add on a red flag law and we wipe out the vast majority of these people's ability to get guns. 1

You trust police to make that decision along with everything else they have to do? Judges only need to know what the law says and how to enforce it, cops must do that and also deal with the common idiots of our country. Separating those powers is good 2

If you are going to deprive someone of their rights, there needs to be due process. That involves the judicial system, not just the cops. 1

Separating those powers is good Understand, but the inference was that a judge has to approve the gun removal before it us done. I think way too much time passes. It is not an eviction from an apartment, it is life and death. 🙂
