re: #34 Dangerman

I’m truly fascinated by people who think that virtually no one is dangerous enough to be barred from owning a gun.

Or that they think these laws would be applied unfairly to them.

As if with all the right wing judges out there already, how would that happen?

They think that red flag laws will be slowly expanded to include any “undesirable” activities beyond DV, or that the laws will be applied with no oversight so anyone can just make wild accusations and then the law will apply.

Whether or not there’s any merit to this, I can’t say, and even if there is would it be worth it regardless, I do not know. What I do know (or strongly believe) is that taking guns away from people credibly accused or convicted of domestic violence (or animal cruelty beyond legitimate hunting) will probably cause the numbers of horrific shit that happens with guns to drop by an order of magnitude without doing a single other thing on the subject.
