May of 2022 was a tragically bloody month that will forever be burned into the memories of Americans. In Uvalde, Texas and Buffalo, New York, two different psychopath cowards sought out unarmed children and adults and slaughtered them in cold blood.

Instead of trying to understand what causes someone to want to harm innocent people, the state responded with reactionary measures to limit the rights of law-abiding citizens. New York led the way with tyrannical bills that outlawed passive resistance to bullets with a body armor ban. The feds then followed suit with a bipartisan bill to remove due process with a national red flag law.

As TFTP has reported at length, red flag laws do little to prevent mass shootings and a lot to trample the rights of law-abiding citizens.

Citizens who are targeted by these laws are deemed guilty first and only after their guns are taken, will they have a chance to defend themselves in court. This is de facto removal of due process.

In spite of what officials and the fact checkers claim, when a person is stripped of their constitutional rights, albeit temporarily, without being given the chance to make their own case based on what can be entirely arbitrary accusations, this is the removal of due process. It doesn't work and it is rife for abuse as there is no way to stop an estranged spouse from calling police repeatedly and telling them their ex is threatening to cause harm to themselves or others.
