An open letter to President Trump
I cannot support your idea of Red Flag laws Mr. President. Due process is an inconvenient process for a reason. Arresting guns and leaving the "dangerous" person out in public, with their vehicle, and access to all things that can be weaponized, is stupid. This policy would be turned into a political weapon to disarm anyone who disagrees with anyone. Veterans and former law enforcement will be targeted as we already have Democrat politicians claiming we already have a mental disorder. Ex spouses will be able to weaponize Red Flag Laws as a standard tactic in domestic actions and divorce. I'm a staunch supporter, but I'm here to tell you this could undo all your support from a very large number who understand the ramifications and pitfalls of such policy. Don't do it.
