Has anyone heard that the dems and some of the so called rinos on that committee are talking about yellow flag laws.

    Red flag laws may very well be the direction they take to harass gun owners. Given the current sheeple mentality that was cultivated and perfected during covid, society is ripe for the vigilante justice that the sheeple could wield and feel empowered by. “If it only saves one life” they will say ….. as they continue to abort, on average, 2054 children per day.

    In addition to red flag laws whereas yellow flag the police can take guns without having to go to court if they deem necessary?

    If you read the source you linked, then what you said contradicts with the article.

    The law enacted on a bipartisan basis in 2019 allows law enforcement to petition the court to seize guns or other weapons if a medical professional determines that a person with a mental health condition poses a significant threat to themselves or others.

    Says that LE would be allowed to petition the court to seize guns or other weapons.

    So please explain how you determine that LE is or would be seizing weapons without going to court?

    Good old Cornhole......shouldn't be called rational but a sellout.

    President Biden pointed to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. John Cornyn as Republicans he believes he can work with on gun control.

    Biden said there was a chance for compromise on gun control with "rational Republicans" such as McConnell, R-Ky., and Cornyn, R-Texas, during remarks to reporters Monday, though he warned that there is not much he can do on his own through executive action.


    I am embarrassed to admit he is from Texas.

    Thank you for clarification.
    Clarification is very much needed. OP stated something that was incorrect either out of ill-intent to spread doom and gloom and to incite fear in gun owners, or out of pure ignorance. Either is dangerous to law abiding gun owners.

    I am not a fan of any red flag laws simply because they put too much power into the hands of few, who can turn on a law abiding gun owner because of fear that they own guns, so therefor they must be a danger to society and the community. The same can be said for a yellow flag laws as well. LE as a group are representative more of the government than the people, and such laws could allow them to exercise more power than they should have in regards to our gun rights.

    But we can't realistically defend ourselves to these laws with incorrect information being spread. We need to counter with truth and facts.

    OP is Chicken Little personality going around yelling to everyone, "The sky is falling, The sky is falling!" trying to gin up fear for our gun rights by spreading misinformation and misleading information or outright lies.

    Read his opening post in this thread and read the articles he linked, and draw your own conclusions about his statements.

    Brandon couldn't find his rear end with both hands, and you believe what he says?

    Mitch is the only reason we have anything resembling a 2A (remember Merrick Garland?). He's a politician, he certainly could be selling us out, but what Mitch did for us by stopping Obama from putting another anti-2A Justice on SCOTUS means I'll have to see it before I believe it.

    Here is a voice for no compromise no surrender on 2A from Kurt Schlichter in Town Hall;

    "You gun fascists can kiss my Schumer and we keep our guns." (It gets even better and with effective argument against leftist compromise offers.)

    That's just the opening paragraph but I think you know where his argument is heading.

    BTW: He speaks and writes his opinions no holds barred all the time. Suggest you follow him on Twitter @KurtSchlichter and read his Kelly Turnbull book series.

    wiki: Cornyn
    "sponsored a bill to allow law enforcement to force anyone arrested or detained by federal authorities to provide samples of their DNA, which would be recorded in a central database."
    "voted for the reauthorization of the PATRIOT Act and extending its wiretap provision"
    "aid federal agencies in alerting, reporting and recording gun purchases by creating a universal cross-agency database"
    "In 2022, Cornyn demanded red flag gun confiscation laws be passed"
    Picked by McConnell to take the heat from Mitch.
    250 R donors want more (stupid) gun laws. Guys that have private security (i.e. ex-chase bank ceo, etc)
