The Onion

That's the problem I have with red flag laws. They simply shortcut the due process when really that system itself can and should be improved.

My worry is that false positives will lead to innocent people having rights taken. I know many are lucky enough to not give a shit about guns but what if it was any other right? Press, religion, etc. If people are getting constitutional rights taken I don't want it to be on a whim, especially if that shit is permanant. Even if it gets walked back it can cause a lot of harm, like false "me too" accusations from a few years ago.
