This is no joke folks! While everyone was focused on the release of the Mueller Report, Republicans AND Democrats in the Senate used the news cycle as a distraction to quietly advance two major and virtually identical “red flag” gun confiscation bills.
And no, we’re not talking about gun-control. We’re talking about GUN-CONFISCATION… Mr. and Mrs. American, no need to turn ’em in because we’re coming to your house and taking them!
Don’t take our word for it. Read the bills yourself. The first – S.7: The Extreme Risk Protection Order and Violence Prevention Act of 2019 – is being pushed by Senators Susan Collins and Marco Rubio. The other – S.560: The Extreme Risk Protection Order Act of 2019 – is being pushed by Senator Dianne Feinstein and 25 Senate Democrats.
And here’s the kicker! Key provisions of both of these bills are word for word identical.
Both of these bills encourage, fund and empower local law enforcement officials – based upon purely subjective opinion – to show up at your home to confiscate your legally owned and registered firearm. You do not have to be accused of any crime, you don’t have to do anything to trigger the action, the police do not need probable cause, you are not told about this action in advance, and you are prohibited – if by some off chance you find out about it – from facing your accusers or even pleading your case to a civil authority before police bust down your front door and take your guns.
You’re reading this right! Republicans and Democrats are fighting each other… tooth-and-nail to be the FIRST to pass RED FLAG GUN CONFISCATION legislation that totally violates the 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States.

Here’s how Red Flag Laws presently work. Seriously folks, we’re talking about some real third-world, banana republic stuff here.
Again, based upon purely subjective opinion, police officers are empowered to show up at your home to confiscate your legally owned and registered firearm. You do not have to be accused of any crime, you don’t have to do anything to trigger the action, the police do not need probable cause, you are not told about this action in advance and you are prohibited – if by some off chance you find out about it – from facing your accusers or even pleading your case to a civil authority before they take your gun.
If a police officer or a nosey neighbor or a crazy ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend thinks you should not have a firearm, they can make an anonymous report and the police can bust down your door and take your weapon… PERIOD!
Then, after the violation of your constitutional liberties occurs, you may then petition the court to have your constitutional rights reinstated; and when you do, the burden if proof is on you.
Michael Hammond, the Legislative Counsel for Gun Owners of America explains the process as follows:
“After a fixed period of time… the gun owner can ask for a court hearing to restore his or her constitutional rights. But guess what? Few gun owners have the sophistication or the thousands of dollars it would take to hire a lawyer and expert witnesses. And few courts are willing to second-guess themselves and reverse the Gun Confiscation Order which has been issued.”
“In fact, hundreds of thousands of veterans have lost their gun rights without due process pursuant to a comparable procedure. And recent revelations from the VA suggest that fewer than 50 have successfully invoked this ‘process’ to get their rights back.”
Hammond goes on:
“But there’s a larger issue: If the Constitution can be suspended in a secret hearing, where does this lead?”
“What if this newspaper could be shut down for 21 days without due process — based on a secret complaint? Or an individual could be arrested or imprisoned for 21 days? Or tortured?
“Far from being a ‘consensus proposal,’ the suspension of the Constitution in a secret hearing is a constitutional Rubicon from which there is no return.”

We shouldn’t have to say it folks… if the government can confiscate your property without warning or probable cause, that is the exact opposite of due process.
And we shouldn’t have to tell you that such a law would be a clear violation of the 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
Of course, these legislative efforts didn’t come out of thin air. The far-left protests and lobbying efforts that evolved out of the Parkland shooting in Florida are bearing fruit for the radical left and even Republican legislators are pushing these clear and present threats to the Constitution and your civil liberties.
Let’s be real folks, such a law will do little, if anything, to stop another school massacre, but that’s not the intent of such a law anyway. Governments confiscate weapons for one reason and one reason alone.
Already, a number of states have have recently passed unconstitutional “red flag” laws.
And while these unconstitutional laws vary from state to state, what we’re already seeing from states that have already passed these unconstitutional and tyrannical laws should alarm any red-blooded American.
Hammond again:
“At their core, they allow the police to convene a Kafkaesque secret proceeding, in which an American can be stripped of his or her gun rights and Fourth Amendment rights… The first thing gun owners learn is when police knock on the door — ready to ransack their house and, if they resist, to arrest or even shoot them and their family.
“The standard is not whether there is probable cause to believe that the gun owner has committed a crime, as the Constitution would seem to require. Rather, the standard is some subjective determination about whether the owner represents some ‘danger.’
“As in the film Minority Report, Americans are stripped of their fundamental constitutional rights based on the subjective possibility of a future crime.”
This is no joke folks! For years, patriotic Americans have suspected that the federal government could, one day, move to confiscate the firearms of Americans citizens. Liberals laughed at you when you said it, but now, the horrendous truth has been laid bare for all to see.
They’re actually coming for your guns and they must be stopped!
