Consider the Dangers of “Red Flag” Laws

The hot topic these days, prompted by repeated staged gun shooting events, is what is called “Red Flag” laws. Red flag laws are essentially laws enacted that gives power to some named authorities to attempt to predict what they think a person MIGHT do that would become a danger to society or the person in question. In the case of red flag gun laws, the issue is whether or not a person is mentally ill and might pose a threat to themselves or others.

Consider the dangers.

First, such red flag laws, bastardize due process of law as well as removes the long held principle that a person is presumed innocent until a bonafide court of law determines guilt. American society today, bolstered by fascists and promoted by ignorant totalitarians have lost all sensibility when it comes to the protection of their presumed rights and government allotted freedoms. This action contributes to their own insanity and thus we are left with a bunch of people, most of whom are mentally challenged themselves, calling out for insanity in another person who chooses not to live the mainstream lifestyle of insanity, instead selecting their own methods of insane existence. So, who is right? The one with the power right?

As was pointed out yesterday by a reader of this website, we now have entered the extremely dangerous ground of enacting laws based upon what we think a person might do based on their state of mind. If a person is, in fact insane (which aren’t we all by someone’s standards?) is that person capable of recognizing mental incapabilities in other people? Because a person doesn’t live as I, does that make them insane? In this insane world it certainly does.

I don’t consider myself insane, but I know for a fact there are some (perhaps a lot) who think I have some serious mental deficiencies if not just unusual ways of looking at things, mostly because of my spiritual beliefs.

I was watching a movie the other night trying to relax after a physically demanding day, in which one of the actors in the movie stated that ANYONE who believed in God suffered from a mental disorder.

If a law enforcement person (and need I have to remind readers that not all law enforcement personnel are capable of putting behind them their personal perspectives on such things as religion, politics, etc. in their decision making processes?) chooses to think me mentally ill because of the hours I spend each day studying the Scriptures to show myself approved unto my CREATOR, can that law officer then bring me before a “medical professional” of his/her choice with like perspectives, rendering me doomed to the fascist, rigged system?

Because anger and hatred have been purposefully bred into our society, is there really any comfort to be had that none of this anger and hatred (insanity) is being injected into the rigged system of granted power to incarcerate a person and take their property from them simply because they think differently or because they are a republican and not a democrat?

When an honest assessment of life in these United States shows us the repeated death threats and threats of bodily harm and other assorted insane and perverse things, because these events are becoming more and more of routine acceptance as part of a dysfunctional society, from what basis are we beginning our assessment in attempting to determine the mental capacity of any individual who happens to possess “dangerous weapons?”

Throughout history we have read and sometimes witnessed attempts by powerful organizations to somehow control a person’s right of thought. How does anyone control another persons thoughts? Short of a “Clockwork Orange” concept, perhaps technology is not that far away from accomplishing that task but in the meantime, perhaps the best way to tread into the pits of hell is to enact laws that give somebody power to guess what another person might do based on their character, political association, sexual orientation, education, or lack thereof, color of skin, outward appearance, religious background or affiliation…there is no end. Is this what we want?

It is a terrible thing when anyone, for any reason, chooses to kill other people. If, as has been pointed out by some in the media, the acts of violence in our society are increasing, then perhaps it is more a reflection of a society with a rapidly shrinking moral base, a Godless society absent any knowledge of what is decent and not, rather than one in need of laws that attempt to determine a person’s thoughts or the possibilities of what they might do based solely on the perspectives of brainwashed authorities.

If we dare allow ourselves to let our minds run a bit wild, consider some of the possibilities an accepted “red flag” existence might render. With fully enacted and accepted “red flag” laws a normal part of society, then it would only make sense that such actions become the defense in a court of law for a legitimate reason one person killed another person – yes, your honor, I shot and killed that person because I believed, because I knew they were a mental patient and an active republican, they were going to kill me if I didn’t kill them. (I learned this on Facebook)

Of course nobody wants to even consider these possibilities but they are very real. That’s how progressivism works. With such perverted insanity becoming the “normal” in a forward moving society, sanity would tell us that by enacting “red flag” laws we are making things even worse and crafting a societal stage of reckless permissiveness based on nothing but fear, anger, and hatred.

Where will this insanity end? This is the epitome of the fox tending the chicken coup – the insane determining insanity.

Forgive them Father. They know not what they do.

SAM’s Red Flag Gun Control “Compromise” is a BIG FASCIST JOKE!

The Sportsman’s Alliance of Maine (SAM) should be embarrassed and SAM members should be angry that this organization worked on and apparently is supporting an LD 1811 “compromise” red flag, anti-Second Amendment, anti-Due Process proposed bill.

It is a constant battle in attempts to protect, as much as is actually possible within a rigged system that treats the Federal and State constitutions as pieces of toilet paper, the rights and freedoms we have left (very few if any). Despite the truth that law makers, at both the Federal and State level pay no attention to a constitution, falsely believed by most as written for them, groups/organizations like the SAM, NRA, etc. think they are doing somebody a favor by working on and rewriting a “compromise” gun control and anti-right to due process bill fantastically thought to be something of value.

It just blows my mind that a fascist-style government proposes to take away freedoms enjoyed by many people and groups like SAM, NRA, etc. rush in with a “compromise” as though that is satisfactory. Either a right should be protected or not. Giving it away one compromise at a time has a very bad ending. Can’t people see this? Evidently not.

When did such ignorant people begin thinking compromising our rights away was a good thing. Stupid is as stupid does.

If people actually support the Second Amendment, why do they willing work to “compromise” it away? If people actually support a person’s right to due process of the law, why then do they willingly work to “compromise” it away? Is that ALL that is left of one’s perceived value of these things? Evidently there is no value left to rights and freedom regardless as to whether such rights and freedoms are unalienable or meted out by a fascist government and supported by totalitarian members of our society such as the SAM, NRA, GOMA, etc.

The intent of LD 1811, regardless of what people attempt to tell you, is about doing just exactly what idiot President Donald Trump (who hates guns and gun owners until he needs their votes) said after the Florida school shooting, that we should go take away the guns that belong to anyone “WE” THINK might be “dangerous” and then worry about Due Process later. Heil, mein Fuhrer!

Well, welcome LD 1811. It’s intent is to give some uneducated “medical practitioner” full power to decide whether any person brought before them by “law enforcement” (that is the same law enforcement who gun down unarmed people and are justified for their actions) might pose a threat to themselves or other people.

It appears that SAM’s compromise is to demand that a person is given back their right to due process within 14 days…as though somehow this is what was intended by due process?

Note: I began watching a video that SAM put on their Farcebook (right word) page. I could only stomach it up to the point where Trahan said that this “group” (together in the video) brought in a lawyer to make sure that everything they did would not disrupt a person’s right to due process. If anyone in this group, represented by SAM, NRA, and GOMA, and the lawyer they hired, believes that the work they did on LD 1811 is not a disruption of one’s right to due process, one has to wonder from whence they received their brainwashing. It is obvious the brainwashing is well-entrenched.

But unseen and perhaps blindly ignorant of, is the fact that within this 14 days, the “court” must decide whether the “evidence” given them is reason enough to behead a man or let him go and return his confiscated weapons. Tell me that you really don’t believe that a rush to “judgement” by any “court” would render a proper decision and in most cases the judge will simply rule that a person is guilty until proven innocent, i.e. that, like the 14 days, no person is entitled to protection under the piece of crap CONstitution because some “medical practitioner” and lazy judge have taken it upon themselves to be gOD. No court wants to become responsible for anyone who now has been brought before the public and accused of being a nut job – defined as someone who might be a threat to themselves and/or others. It then becomes easier to simply say a full hearing must be heard and in the meantime this accused person has had their rights taken from them (life destroyed)…all in the name of saving the world from deranged mass murderers, which can’t be done anyway.

Talk about a very bad precedent that can trickle down to every aspect of our lives; an act that men have died for believing it was the backbone of the “freedom” they were giving their life for – innocent until proven guilty and due process. WHAT ARE WE DOING? Hasn’t it become obvious that the CONstitution, including the Bill of Rights, was not written for or intended for you and I. All governments, protected by their constitutions, only mete out freedoms as it becomes in the governments best interest.

Nothing is perfect in this crazy upside down world we have created. No law can stop the insanity this society has created. Living in a world where once we enjoyed seemingly countless freedoms and granting a person innocent until proven guilty, sometimes caused troubles. It’s not perfect. Taking away those freedoms only amounts to fascist rule and oppression. This approach has never worked throughout history, and yet, here we are with well-intentioned people willingly ceding their freedoms and believing they are doing the right thing.

And now, groups like SAM, and most of the really stupid, non thinking public, can’t see their own destruction by “compromising” any rights they once thought they had away and flushing them, willingly, down the toilet drain.

Regardless of any and all other window dressing that might be applied in this fascist “compromise” bill, the proposal should be an embarrassment to the name of SAM being attached to it and said to have eagerly participated in.

It appears too late for SAM to back out of this and so, I would hope that regardless of the Legislatures’ vote on this bill, members of SAM (unless they are blinded by their own ignorance) should demand the resignation of David Trahan (executive director of SAM) and any member of the Board of Directors who actively worked on this bill and/or support it. The same should be demanded from the NRA and Gun Owners of Maine.

If the majority membership of SAM believes this bill is a good thing, then SAM is no friend of sportsmen who own and use guns, and is absolutely no friend of anyone wishing to retain their right to the due process of law.

Fascist countries are those who operate exactly as this “compromise” bill is suggesting – strong arm the public and worry about whether a person any longer has a right to the “old-fashioned” due process.
