    In Texas, as long as one ensures not just that dangerous metal retards are disarmed, but that they are disarmed through a fair process that prevents non-dangerous individuals from inadvertently losing their Second Amendment rights as well.

    Under proposed "Red Flag" laws, your gun rights can be taken away and your firearms confiscated based on accusations with no evidence, lodged without your knowledge, in legal proceedings where you are not represented. Said accusations could come from any family member or former relationship, and in some states they can also come from coworkers or acquaintances. After the police show up (in some instances by staging a "no knock" raid, such as a case in Massachusetts that cost a man his life) and confiscate your property, you would have an "opportunity" to hire an attorney at your expense and attempt to prove your innocence six months or so after the fact.

    So tell me...what's right about that? Shall we count the Constitutional protections these orders circumvent?

    Once the cops have your guns you have little chance of getting them back. You might see one of them carrying your fancy .45 on his waist. I have a friend whose guns were confiscated, never got them back including several legal sub machine guns.

    Anyone who supports red flag laws in their current form does not support the 2nd Amendment or even the Constitution for that matter. Red flag laws need to be changed to work within the normal parameters of law and not circumvent it. Until Crenshaw supports revising red flag laws to protect gun owners from false accusations, provide proper representation in all court proceedings, and prevent unjust confiscation of firearms he will not get any support from me.

    Everyone with a firearm is dangerous to the government. That's the whole point of 2a, and why infringing on it is a bad idea.

    There are already procedures for TEMPORARILY (i.e. for a day or two) removing firearms from a person in mental health crisis, but they get them back as soon as they can get to the PD to get them, unless they go through a VERY lengthy process to be committed to a mental health institution. (I.e. they go to court and are "tried" before a judge).

    There is no need to add ways to take firearms. There is already an effective method that provides for due process that doesn't infringe the people's right to bear arms.

    Red flag laws may sound like a good idea at face value, but they are dangerous to our freedom.
