While Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi are working overtime to crush my Second Amendment rights in Congress, they are now being aided by back-stabbing Republicans like Marco Rubio and Rick Scott who are pushing S. 292. This legislation would bribe the states into passing ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation, which would allow a judge to confiscate my firearms before I’ve been arrested, charged, or convicted of anything, through secret, ex-parte court proceedings that I cannot attend. The hearings can be initiated by an ex-spouse, an old boyfriend/girlfriend from my high school days, a distant family member that I haven’t seen in 20 years and many other people! This is insane, and it’s violates all sort of my Constitutional and ‘due process’ rights as an American citizen. And in these days of cancel culture warriors ruining people’s lives over political disagreements, ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ are truly terrifying. As your constituent, I am writing to make sure you know that I expect you to oppose ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation, whether it’s being pushed by a Republican or Democrat! I don’t care if the media or moderate Republicans in your own conference are pressuring you to support it. This is radical gun control and gun owners across America have spoken very loudly about this issue in recent elections! The American Firearms Association is watching this issue very closely and will keep me informed on your actions and statements made on this legislation.

As your constituent, I am writing to insist that you oppose ‘Red Flag Gun Control’ (S.292) or any similarly named legislation that would allow me to have my firearms seized having never been arrested, indicted, or convicted of a crime! This legislation bribes the states into passing this legislation while destroying any notion of due process and the cherished American concept of ‘innocent until proven guilty!’ Please understand that there is no amendment, no minor tweak, no improvement that could be made to this bill to make it acceptable to me as a law abiding gun owner. I don’t care that this bill is being sponsored by Republicans, as a voter, I expect you to oppose this bill at all points in the legislative process. The American Firearms Association assures me that they will keep me informed about the status of this bill.

‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ are gun confiscation, pure and simple. And Marco Rubio’s S. 292 would bribe the state’s into passing this legislation all over the country. And as one of your constituents, I expect you to be opposed to this legislation at every step in the process. This bill allows me to be stripped of my firearms based on the rantings of personal enemies like an ex-spouse, a boyfriend/girlfriend from high school, or a distant relative that I haven’t seen in decades! Frankly I’m stunned that you haven’t come out loudly opposed to this legislation, as I’ve not heard a single gun owner in our state express support for this legislation. I will be watching this legislation very closely, with the help of the American Firearms Association. Please vote no on S. 292, and publicly condemn it!

As a gun owner, I am sending emails, signing petitions, and making calls all the time right now, trying to defeat Joe Biden’s gun control agenda, which is being urged on by the radical left. But I’m not surprised when the left attacks my gun rights. That’s what socialists do. But seeing Republicans like Marco Rubio and Rick Scott sponsor S. 292 -- which would bribe the states the pass ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ -- is absolutely disgusting. I am disgusted that Republicans are supporting ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation! Even worse, are weak Republicans who are supporting this legislation instead of fighting for gun owners like me! The idea that a gun owner who has never been convicted of a crime could have a liberal judge order his firearms to be seized, is a violation of due process and our basic American ideals! Don’t think that gun owners are going to give a pass to lawmakers because of their party affiliation, either. As an American, a voter, and a gun owner, I expect you to vote against this legislation whether it’s being pushed by Senator Rubio, Senator Feinstein or the President himself! The American Firearms Association will keep me informed of your actions on this legislation.

‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ are the worst gun control bill that has even been introduced in America! Worse than a ban on the AR-15, worse than a ban on mags that hold over 10 rounds, worse than universal background checks, this legislation would allow millions of Americans to be disarmed by bureaucrats thanks to bogus complaints from anyone who doesn’t like them! So don’t think that I’ll be pleased if you oppose other forms of gun control, but support S. 292, which uses my tax dollars to bribe states into passing this legislation. There is no room for compromise on this legislation, at all. Don’t give an inch, fight for gun owners, fight for the Second Amendment, and oppose ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation in the Judiciary Committee and on the floor! With the radical left attacking my gun rights at every turn, it’s outrageous that I have to worry about threats to my The American Firearms Association assures me that they will keep me informed about your votes on this legislation.

‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ are abhorrent to me as a proud American and a gun owner, and I strongly insist that you vote no on this legislation if it makes it to the Senate floor. This is about much more than the Second Amendment. One of the most bedrock philosophies of this country is the idea that we are ‘innocent until we are proven guilty’ in a court of law. If we surrender that concept in the area of the Second Amendment -– allowing gun owners to lose their firearms and their rights before ever being convicted of a crime -- this will spread to other areas quickly. The raging socialist liberals and weak-kneed moderates who are pushing this legislation want to destroy this great country, and if they can obliterate the idea of ‘innocent until proven guilty,’ they will be one step closer to their goal. That’s why I insist that you oppose this legislation on the Senate floor, regardless of the fact that it’s being sponsored by turncoat Republicans like Marco Rubio and Rick Scott. The American Firearms Association will let me know how you vote on this bill.

While socialist media outlets across the country are pushing a false narrative that gun owners support ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation, I am writing to you, as my Senator, to make sure you know how false that is. As a voter, a gun owner, and an American, I am 100% opposed to any legislation that would allow a liberal judge to confiscate my firearms and suspend my rights before I’ve been convicted of a crime! More than that, not a single gun owner I know supports this legislation. In fact, every single one that I talk to is opposed to this legislation as well. We all know what’s going on. The liberal left and the sellout moderates on the right (like Senators Rubio and Scott who sponsored S. 292) are trying to use the recent mass shootings (which only highlight the failure of gun control in the first place) to disarm proud gun owners like me. As your constituent, I demand that you oppose this legislation if it makes it to the Senate floor. I’ll be watching your votes on this very closely. If I miss anything, the American Firearms Association will keep me informed.

As your constituent, I am writing to let you know that I am absolutely opposed to the ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ funding bill (S. 292) that is being pushed by Marco Rubio and others. As you likely know, this legislation is a funding bill that would allow individual state legislatures to craft their own legislation. By definition, you are unable to control what happens to this legislation in state capitols around the country. So please don’t tell me that you can place safeguards in this bill, as justification for your support. At the end of the day, the primary fact remains, this legislation would disarm gun owners before they have ever been charged or convicted of anything. That, plus your inability to know what sort of legislation lawmakers at the state level may implement thanks to this funding bill, should be more than enough to get you to vote no. As one of your constituents, I want you to know that your actions on this bill have my full attention. The American Firearms Association has assured me that will keep me informed about your votes on this legislation. Please oppose S. 292!

With the pressure over ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation heating up, and with Republican sellouts like Marco Rubio and Rick Scott filing a ‘Red Flag’ funding bill in D.C., I assume that you are looking to the NRA for advice on how to proceed. Please understand that the NRA is dead wrong about this legislation, and that their support for this bill, directly or indirectly, will not give you a pass from grassroots gun owners like me. This legislation (S. 292) is the definition of tyranny. It allows me to be striped of my firearms before I’ve been arrested, charged or convicted of anything! It allows people who just don’t like me (an ex-spouse, a girlfriend from 15 years ago, a liberal aunt who lives 1,000 miles away) to file bogus complaints against me! And, often, it allows the entire proceeding to take place via an ex-parte hearing that I know nothing about until the seizure order has been issued! So I don’t care if the NRA backs this legislation. They were wrong when they supported FIX-NICS legislation, they were wrong when they supported banning bump stocks, and they are wrong about this legislation, too. So as your constituent, I am writing to demand that you vote no on this legislation. The American Firearms Association will let me know how you vote on this bill, so please oppose S. 292!

D.C. liberals support ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures.’ The FAKE NEWS in D.C. and across America support ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures.’ And a growing number of moderate Republicans like Marco Rubio and Rick Scott support ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures.’ In fact, Rubio and Scott have filed S. 292, which bribes state legislatures with taxpayer money if they implement ‘Red Flags.’ But gun owners don’t support this due-process shredding gun control. And frankly, I’m shocked that you haven’t come out and loudly condemned this legislation already, considering that it: *** Takes away guns before a gun owner is convicted of a crime; *** Allows complaints to come in from almost anyone, like an embittered ex-spouse, an old boyfriend/girlfriend that you haven’t seen since high school, and angry family members who may live 1,000 miles away. *** Often allows for an almost automatic renewal process, which could result in a lifetime ban for a gun owner with no criminal conviction. Americans who care about freedom, the Second Amendment, and due process are 100% opposed to this legislation, and we will watch your vote on this legislation very carefully. In the event that I miss something, the American Firearms Association will keep me informed about your actions on this bill. Please oppose S. 292 or any similar legislation.

Radical leftists in Congress are wasting no time trying to ban and confiscate guns from as many law abiding Americans as possible, using a variety of tyrannical gun control measures. And ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ are high on that list as they would allow a judge to confiscate my firearms before I’ve been arrested, charged, or convicted of anything, through secret, ex-parte court proceedings that I cannot attend. The hearings can be initiated by many people, including personal enemies like an ex-spouse, distant family members I haven’t seen in 20 years, or an old boyfriend/girlfriend from my high school days. The ‘evidence’ that can be used against me often is something as simple as the recent purchase of a firearm or ammunition, making this legislation a violation of the 2nd, 5th, and 6th amendments at least. As your constituent, I am writing to make sure that before you consider cosponsoring or voting for ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation, you remember that while your party may have a majority today, it’s a slim one to say the least. And this slim majority came after Michael Bloomberg spent over $100,000,000 attacking pro-gun candidates all over the country and with a Presidential election at stake. You can rest assured that supporting this legislation will send your conference back into the minority on election night next year. Gun owners are organized and will be watching ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation very closely over the next two years, and that’s why it would be a good idea for you to oppose this legislation. It’s bad policy and your conference is getting crushed for supporting it. It’s your choice, but the American Firearms Association will keep me informed on your actions on this legislation throughout the session.
