 our journey into wonderland, accompanying alice it would seem, now ramps up with 'laws' to join in with red flag laws in which you get the verdict first and the trial second, maybe;


As TFTP reported in April, Biden promised sweeping gun control and rolled out a list of Executive Orders attacking the 2nd Amendment rights of Americans. One of those orders was a promise to implement “red flag” legislation at the federal level within 60 days. It’s been 60 days.

The Justice Department, within 60 days, will publish model “red flag” legislation for states, Biden’s executive order stated.

Red flag laws allow family members or law enforcement to petition for a court order temporarily barring people in crisis from accessing firearms if they present a danger to themselves or others. The President urges Congress to pass an appropriate national “red flag” law, as well as legislation incentivizing states to pass “red flag” laws of their own. In the interim, the Justice Department’s published model legislation will make it easier for states that want to adopt red flag laws to do so.

However, as TFTP has reported, red flag laws are a slippery slope and do more harm than good.

As Reason magazine points out, the proposed language describes a process that is rigged against respondents from beginning to end, allowing courts to strip people of their Second Amendment rights based on little more than bare allegations by potentially mistaken, biased, or malicious petitioners.

For the past three years, Democrats and Republicans alike have joined forces to pass sweeping regulations that could serve as a death blow to the Second Amendment. Red flag laws have been passed in a total of 19 states and police are showing how willing they are to use them. With Biden’s plan, these laws will be extended to all 50 states........read more.......
