"Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs), commonly referred to as "red flag laws," have been at the forefront of the gun control debate. The idea is simple: if a person is deemed mentally unstable, and a risk to themselves or others, he or she can be stripped of their firearms. Typically, family members, doctors and law enforcement have the power to petition a judge to deem the gun owner mentally unfit to own a firearm, at least for the time being. Some states, like Florida, have already implemented these laws. While they sound great on paper, they have a number of practicality issues. The biggest one is the lack of due process.

Just last week, a man in Florida had his firearms confiscated simply because he had the same name as a criminal. That's right. A man was stripped of his Second Amendment right...because the police failed to differentiate a law-abiding citizen with a thug."

And those Socialist Democrats couldn't not have done it without the Florida Republican party. Two gun grabbing peas in a pod.
 
THIS - Americans being stripped of their 2nd Amendment Rights, NOT being made safer - is the REAL results of emotionally manipulating sheep in the midst of a crisis...
 
That is a great example of why you can trust the filthy government with "reasonable gun control laws". It is never reasonable.

Also, piss on that RINO Rick Scott for championing the Red Flag laws in Florida after Parkland. He was a fucking idiot. He didn't have any backbone to stand up and just say no to the Liberal stupidity frenzy after Parkland.

Moscow Mitch, and Goldilocks want to keep their jobs - you aint seen nothing yet, moron.

This is where the DOJ needs to step in and prosecute the officials who did this in a civil rights case.

Trump has said he would support these laws.

State Gun Groups Aren't Happy Trump Is Supporting Red Flag Laws

He also stated screw due process.

Trump: 'Take the guns first, go through due process second'

I suppose an argument that states that he is often full of crap, rarely thinks before talking and routinely lies might cover this though.

this is one time his drones pray he's lying.
 
And we know how scared you guys are without your guns. What horror.
 
And the mistake was fixed fairly quickly. So actually the system worked. Occasionally things like that are going to happen, but that's no reason to throw out Florida's sensible red flag law. This kind of extremist opposition to common-sense gun laws could cost the Republican Party the Senate and a lot more.

One can never argue that a law that ignores Due Process works. There are people who without question should not have guns. There are likely times that a person should have guns taken from them BUT you should always have a right to represent yourself.
 
Sheriff's departments are notorious for confiscating guns, money and valuables, for any reason that they can find. I've known of several people who had similar experiences as this Jonathan Carpenter person.

It's not about fucking Second Amendment rights being violated. Jesus, the whining you Republicans do. It's about the corrupt laws that allow this confiscation of property even before a person is charged with a crime.

The "news" outlets that are circulating this story are all right wing gun lovers...spinning a story to scare other gun owners.

And the bad news is this Carpenter guy might not get his guns back at all. Especially when you're talking about a redneck area like Osceola County, Florida.
 
The left's strategy to strip away our 2nd amendment rights is death by a thousand cuts. Just heap more and more gun control laws on the books until its so ridiculous its no longer possible to exercise your 2nd amendment rights.

Already in some asshole Dem states the gun control laws are akin to this...you can own a car but you must remove the tires and fuel, and store the tires and fuel under lock and key in a safe or cabinet until needed.
