On Sunday, the senators announced they had reached an agreement for increased mental health and school security funding, as well as expanded checks on buyers under 21<\/p>\n<p>However, one provision could allow states to violate multiple constitutional rights of it\u2019s citizens. Part of the framework includes a provision to give taxpayer funded incentive grants to states, which implement so-called red flag laws.<\/p>\n<p>Such laws, already in place in 19 states and Washington D.C., allow neighbors, coworkers, ex-relations and family members to go to a judge and petition to have guns taken from individuals they claim are dangerous. A judge can typically order an immediate seizure of firearms, sending police to the home to remove the guns.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cPut simply, red flag laws empower the government to take firearms first and ask questions later. Often much, much later,\u201d stated Senator Ted Cruz.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>No crime has to have been committed, just the accusation of being \u201cdangerous\u201d to yourself or others. The judge can have the separation order enforced without the citizen being present to defend themselves in court. According to the far left ACLU, such laws can infringe not only on the Second Amendment, but also violate the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment, if they are not tailored properly.<\/p>\n<p>One example, of issues that arise from such laws occurred in Maryland in 2018. A man had a red flag order placed against him and while no information on the reason for the order has been released, the man was not committing any crime by continuing ownership of the firearm.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, police showed up to his door and he was armed, but placed the weapon on the ground until police informed him why they were there. The man reportedly became irate, picked up the firearm and had an argument with police. The argument turned violent and shots were fired, resulting in the man\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p>According to Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz, this suppression of rights has no positive trade offs. He said research showed that red flag laws do not stop mass shootings and negligibly reduces suicides.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cNo research has found any statistical reduction in crime,\u201d said Cruz. \u201cIncluding, mass shooting fatalities from confiscation laws and studies about suicide reduction show mixed results.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite the red flag incentives being proposed, the Republican leader in the negotiations Texas\u2019s John Cornyn (R) still maintains an A-Plus rating from the NRA. The gun rights organization has said they will oppose efforts to strip constitutional rights from Americans, but only once a bill is drafted outside of a framework.<\/p>\n<p>Along with Cornyn, nine other Republican Senators, including Ohio\u2019s Rob Portman and South Carolina\u2019s Lindsay Graham, back the framework proposed red flag grants and all.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/dr-ben-carson-calls-for-investigation-into-bidens-deep-relationships-with-ccp\/\">Dr. Ben Carson Calls For Investigation Into Biden\u2019s \u2018Deep Relationships\u2019 With CCP<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
