Red flag laws

Kids saved by anything is a good thing. You can go back to no caring about dead kids now.

Schumer sure and hell doesn't want to protect children.

Apparently South Carolina isn't enforcing it or it's way too weak

How else do you explain this freak having a gun?

The link is regarding involuntary committing someone who is mentally ill. It doesn't say anything about red flag laws or guns.

I think the point the OP is trying to make is that there's a process to send your family member to a mental institute if it appears that they're not mentally well. But this is deceiving in my opinion.

1) The people who are classified as mentally ill are typically not the kind of people who are shooting up schools and grocery stores.

2) Where does the money come from? The payment often comes from either the patient or the family of the patient and these costs can get very expensive. If the family doesn't have money, then they're less likely to commit their relative.

And what is a red flag law,?

And what is a red flag law,?

A law that allows someone’s weapons to be temporarily confiscated if there is reason to believe that they may be dangerous.

Only 19 states have something like this in place.

Good...I certainly plan on using them...as well as the FBI top line. See (or read) something...say something.

 

[bodecea]

You can deny it all you want it's not about saving the lives of children it's all about gun confiscation.

That's why Republican White-wingers don't care about dead kids.

 

[bodecea]

I'm glad you're coming around.

You can't use the death of kids to fuck with our rights.

Now go fuck yourself.

Because you don't care about dead kids. We know.

Well then if a person is being involuntary committed are they not being separated from their firearms. Which is the point of red flag laws.

Yes. And they also leave a huge bill for their family member.

And what was your point again?

 

[XponentialChaos]

And what was your point again?

Its lack of practicality.

Texas shooter came from poverty. Grandma isn’t likely to throw a bunch of money out to have him committed.

So the so called red flag laws don't involuntary committed a person? What good are they for? If you're a danger you should be committed. But thanks for pointing out that red flag laws are just about gun confiscation.and not safety.

No, the red flag laws don't involuntary commit a person.

What good they're for is taking weapons out of the hands of someone who is potentially dangerous.

Not that complicated.
