Second Amendment devotees are treating the proposal as a red flag in a pasture with a grumpy bull.
...The purpose of Indiana's red flag law is to prevent someone who is considered to be a safety threat from buying or possessing firearms until their mental state can be assessed or the issue otherwise resolved. Three separate reviews must be met before that can happen, said Mull: law enforcement must find probable cause that the person is a safety threat, a prosecutor must file an action in court, and a judge has to find "clear and convincing evidence" that an order is needed...
A similar law proposed for Kentucky died during the 2019 session of the General Assembly.
So much for any commonsense proposal that comes close to touching on the inalienable rights of gun owners, sellers and manufacturers.
