As states consider ERPO laws, the NRA will continue to push for the inclusion of strong due process protections.
Notice it doesn't say the NRA will fight against them - but rather, just try to make sure they are to their liking.

This from the NRA-ILA web site just now, at this link:

Texas already has a mental health based "red flag law." The NRA will not support any bill that does not have a mental health element. (See the link in the above-quoted post.) Chris Cox is gone.

I don't think the red flag laws would have done a thing to stop any one of the last three shooters. Politicians know this too. They are simply trying to come up with a way of appearing to do something.

I fear we are in trouble my friends. Even if they don't win on this one, at some point the dems will have control again and we will see drastic action. I hope we are ready.
