The lack of “due process” protection regarding Red Flag laws is the one hurdle I have yet to see handled successfully by these type laws.
There’s just a basic incongruity / incompatibility with the old English law concept of being “innocent until proven guilty”. These laws inherently assume guilty until you can prove yourself innocent. These laws are unconstitutional at best and even un-American in nature. Which is why I think Cornyn is a FUDD; not to mention being the author of the ‘enhanced background check’ bill of a couple years ago (thankfully, it wasn’t passed). For all of Cornyn’s “pro gun”, pro 2A PR propaganda, he’s one I’m glad to see won’t be running again.
