Dems Veto Red Flag Law For Gangbangers

(American Thinker) If Democrats were serious about using red flag laws to keep guns out if the hands of people who might use them to senselessly murder others and therefore are danger to society and not just as a gun-control tool to disarm law-abiding citizens then why did they kill an attempt to use compiled lists of known gang members which many police departments and law enforcement agencies possess? Why did they kill a measure to red flag gang members? And if Beto ORourke is going to come and take our guns particularly our AR-15s is he going to start on the south side of Chicago? As the Washington Examiner noted on September 14: House Democrats this week advanced a new measure to encourage states to pass red flag" laws known as extreme risk protection orders that authorize removing guns and ammunition from dangerous individuals. Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee amended the measure during a Wednesday mark-up to authorize the federal government to issue extreme risk protection orders in some instances but they rejected an amendment that would have red-flagged anyone who law enforcement lists as a gang member.
