(Michael Robison) The Senate is poised to take a critical vote on Thursday to advance the gun safety bill toward final passage, the bill supported by 14 RINOs earlier this week that aims to infringe on Americans’ right to bear arms.

The legislation is on a path to passing the Senate as soon as this week.
The 80-page bill was released Tuesday evening and includes expanded background checks for gun buyers under 21, provides grants for states that implement red flag laws, and offers additional funding for school safety measures and mental health services.
The measure also creates penalties for straw purchases of firearms, requires more gun sellers to register as Federally Licensed Firearm Dealers, and closes the so-called boyfriend loophole by prohibiting gun access for people convicted of domestic abuse against an intimate partner.
The most significant concern in the bill is the “red flag” gun laws that would allow officials to bypass Second Amendment rights and remove a gun from anyone they feel might be a threat. It is a death blow to due process and flips the judicial standard of innocent until proven guilty.
Under the red flag laws, a person is presumed guilty until otherwise deemed innocent. Under the process, a person is penalized by having their Second Amendment rights revoked and their gun confiscated for a reason as simple as posting a photo of a firearm on their social media. If a person reported that post and expressed any concern about the person’s mental state, their gun(s) would be removed by law enforcement.
Here’s how Red Flag Laws would actually work. If you’ve been watching for the last two years you know this is exactly how the radical left would weaponize these “laws” against law abiding Americans. pic.twitter.com/LQI5U562HC

A Twitter post from Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf showed a flow chart of how a red flag law would work. In his example, a woman sees something that bothers her on social media; she reports the offender to the police, then his guns get taken away.
Self-appointed law enforcement scanning social media cannot be the absurd arbiters of the Second Amendment.
Red flag laws allow us to take action when someone who has a gun begins to act erratically.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
