Democrats want to seize your guns but not gang members guns

Red Flag laws are all the rage these days. Those laws would allow the government to seize the guns of people who the government decides are a risk.

The examples used are some of the mass shooters whose parents/friends/the police knew were deranged and a serious threat.

The problem is that the laws being proposed depend on the honesty and unbiased nature of the American judiciary.

For Red Flag laws to work we need to trust the same judges who declare that anything Trump does that they don't like is unconstitutional.

Does anyone seriously doubt that in left wing places like Portland conservatives will have their guns seized because they have a Trump sign in their front lawn which demonstrates their dangerous nature?

But the intrinsic dishonesty of the Red Flag movement was revealed when the Democrat House shot down an amendment which would have placed gang membership on the list of possible justifications for seizing someones guns.

The vast majority of shootings and murders in America are due to gang members; in a typical weekend in Chicago more people are shot than in multiple mass shooting events.

Hence saying that people who show up in police department databases as gang members should be potentially subject to Red Flag laws makes sense if the intent is to stop shootings.

But by rejecting that option, remember it wouldn't mandate that gang members would have their guns seized it would only say that would be a situation that the judge could consider,  Democrats are making it clear that their support is more about disarming honest Americans than actually addressing the mass shootings of Blacks in Democrat run cities like Chicago.

The fact that that the victims of gang shootings are almost all Black or Hispanic may be the reason that Democrats don't care.  Clearly Democrat politicians are racists since they work hard to ignore the mass shootings of Blacks in cities they run.  Can you imagine the Democrats who run Chicago doing what they're doing now if nearly 3000 white people were shot each year?  Of course not.
