Talk to US Senate Staff about Red Flag Laws

Mar 27, 2019 | Featured

Dr. John Lott talked to Senate staffers on Monday, March 25, 2019, the day before the Senate Judiciary Committee held its hearing on the Red Flag bills. Lott explained how these new laws are like a bad version of the Tom Cruise movie, Minority Report.

    I hope Senator Graham’s people took copious notes.

    What they ought to be going after is making the NICS system work correctly.

      The NICS system, is only as good as the information, that is put into it. We have many States that refuse to list involuntary commitments, in the check, claiming HIPPA laws. You also have to factor in human error, by FFL dealers, and military branches, reporting Bad Conduct, and dishonorable discharges to NICS, which wasn’t done with the Sutherland Springs, Texas mass murderer. Nothing is foolproof.

    I agree with Mr. Campbell. These laws are not about safety. Enforcing current law properly will have a noticeable impact.

    This is just plain bad. Anyone with a grudge can claim you are a danger and the cops show up at O-Dark-Early that’s how folks get hurt! Follow the Constitution. You NEED a court order. Stop subverting the our founding documents.
