RED FLAGS & MASS SHOOTERS


 


R. A. Schultz


 


 


Whenever there’s a “mass shooting,” we can bet that the ambulance chasing “lawyers” of the scheister-infested House and Senate will be along shortly, demanding that we “do SOMETHING” to take firearms or certain classes of firearms away from citizens who have nothing to do with mass shootings.  To them, “SOMETHING” can mean anything that makes them FEEL as if they’ve accomplished at least a partial gain along the way to their ultimate goal, destroying what’s still left of the United States of America.


 


To accomplish this ultimate goal, the Left must at least neutralize the Second Amendment, and every mass shooting affords them the opportunity to make at least some headway toward that end.  The latest effort involves the imposition of “red flag laws,” which presumably would facilitate the seizure of firearms from those among us “who simply shouldn’t be allowed to have firearms,” by reason of being a nut, or by reason of having exhibited “strange behavior,” or some other such excuse “as provided by law,” which could mean virtually anything.


 


We’re assured by advocates of these new laws that our firearms will not be seized without “due process.”  This immediately prompted me to inquire, “Will the ‘due process’ of the ‘red flag laws’ mimic that received by Manafort, Stone, Flynn, and Papadopoulos?”


 


On my own I simply concluded that any new gun control efforts would merely provide the start of yet another “slippery slope,” and would make as much sense as attempting to rid the country of drunk driving by taking the cars away from people who don’t drink.  For example, would the existence of red flag laws have prevented the Philadelphia mass shooter who fought off police for the better part of a day from obtaining his AR-15 or any of his handguns?  He was already a convicted violent felon.  By simply being in possession of ANY firearm, he was committing yet another felony.  Did that thought even slow him down?  Give me a break!


 


And did the Philadelphia shooter purchase his firearms from a federally licensed firearms dealer?  Did he even PURCHASE them?  Or were they, like most firearms used by violent felons, simply stolen?


 


Here’s a novel idea:  Why don’t we enforce the laws already on the books before allowing the lame-brained liberal lunatics to dream up more pie-in-the-sky schemes to subvert our G-d-given right of self-defense?
