Red flag laws are an abuse of power because police can go in your house without a warrant and take your firearm even if u don’t even have any type of record in their database. This breaks the 4th amendment because they don’t need a warrant to go in your personal area. Anybody and report you and say that you are dangerous and have a firearm and the sheriffs can come take your weapon and enter your house with permission from the government or anybody.

I believe that the red law flag is an abuse of power in the state. I believe this because in the red law flag the government could just go inside your house with out a warrant and in the 4th amendment in state that no government could search your house without a warrant. Also in the text it also states that if people think your crazy and they call someone telling them your crazy and convince them the would go inside your house without you even knowing and take all your property. In order to get your property back you will have to go to jail for 9months and that’s if you could make them believe your not crazy.

I agree with you because they are violating your 4th amendment right but not only that they’re also violating your 2nd amendment right to own a gun. This is dangerous for both police and the citizen that is getting their property taken away because the owners aren’t notified, the cops just show up and enter into their home w/o permission and take away their property.

Red flags is a abuse of power. In the article from Fox News, “red flags laws” it talks about how it is affecting people. With this law, law enforcements don’t need a warrant to go in your house or take away your property. This law goes against our natural rights, John Locke says our natural rights are “life, liberty and property”. This law also goes against our 4th amendment which says officers need a warrant from a judge to enter your home.
Carys August Per.1
9/12/2019 08:52:56 am
I believe red flags laws are an abuse of power. They violate you and your natural rights. From the Fox News article they stated a man named Gary Willis a 61 year old man was killed when law enforcement showed up to his home demanding his property before sunrise. They are violating natural rights. The one you are violating is property. You are also violating the bills of rights amendment 4 it means you shall not go to anyone home and violate the bill of rights unless told to or with warrant
Kate gonzalez per.1

Red flag laws are an abuse of power because, with those type of laws citizens would be power less and could not defend or protect themselves from anyone, like intruders, the government, etc. These Red Flag Laws have affected many people already like Jonathan Carpenter, who was advised of a criminal because he had the same name as one. This caused him to pay alot money to get his own property and freedom back basically, because his name isn't clear anymore he has a bad record now. Like when Hillary Clinton was running for presidency she wanted to take away weapons and many people did not like that, that's like taking away our natural rights that we use to protect ourselves and feel safe, so she did not win. Trump is thinking about supporting these laws and ruin their legacy.

I think the red flag laws is a abuse of power because the government can take your property without evidence or they don't have to arrest you or do anything.

The other broken amendment is the fourth amendment is the Bill of Rights that says that it officer has to have a warrant to search your house 9/12/2019 09:00:34 am
I think red flags laws are abusive because its against the bill of rights
Jenniffer Delgado
9/13/2019 12:14:23 pm
My thoughts on Red flag laws was intended.The bill of rights 4th amendment shows that you can’t just be treating people like that you can’t just treat someone bad or talk to them in way were they feel totally uncomfortable just because you have a bagged in your shirt it makes no sense personally in my opinion.I honestly think everyone in this world is losing there heads like we obviously all have mouths so we all use our voice to talk not violence and even the people that are deaf still try to find a way to tell you what are they’re saying .Its sad reading stories like this because it’s makes you so sad at the point you just wanna do something about it but then you realize it’s happens years ago and your just a regular person and nobody will understand.
Ashley Lopez
9/12/2019 09:02:36 am
Red flag laws are abuse of power because it’s government taking property without warrant meaning they enter without giving any notice. In the bill of rights, Amendment 4 it states that people have the right to refuse unlawful searches and the police can’t search your house without a warrant. Also in the Fox News it states,”a 61 year old man who was killed when law enforcement showed up at his home before sunrise, demanding to take his property. This shows that Red Flag laws are violating an Amendment that everyone has a right to have property and be secured at all times and not being intruded by random people at a random time. Also it can lead to death just like the 61 year old man. He had no clue what was going on but sadly was killed for being falsely accused. That’s how Red Flag laws abuse power by violating property and killing innocent people.

yes, because people are fasly accused.

Red flag laws are an abuse of power because the police of here to protect and serve our community and to keep us safe. As Told in the Fox News article it stated that a “61 year old man was killed when law enforcement showed up at his home before sunrise, demanding to take his property” affected Tucker, Gary Willis. There is no way for us to protect each other. We have weapons in the first place for a reason. The red flag law violates your natural rights. As John Locke said that our natural rights are “life, liberty and, property”. I believe with that being said nobody can violate our rights.

Red Flag laws are an abuse of power. We have natural rights.The government cant take our property without a warrant and evidence.Red flag law give permission for government to take away property without a warrant or evidence. This is breaking the 4 admendment.Fox News "Red Flag Laws"states,--its all and inversion of our due process where you are presumed guilty and then later on ,you know ,maybe,I think in Indiana ,on average its about nine months,you have your day in court and you can try to get your property back and clear your name if you have been falsely accused"This show that to get your property back it would take 9 months and you can try to clear your name even if you were wrongly accused.Fox News also states" he still ,tucker has to go through the court system ,pay a lot of money clear his name to get his property back" This show that you also have to pay to get your things back your property,

So no I don’t feel like the red flag law is something we in are city. Everything happens to people on a daily basis so we never know what could happen once they took away the guns.

Stephany Reyes P1

It’s taking out right away and the red law flag would not help at all like you said.

At that take something they didn’t buy and have no ownership of . That is breaking amendment 4 because in state no government could just go inside someone house without a warrant . John Locke says our natural rights are “life , liberty , property “ by saying that the red flag is a abusive to the power of our rights and what we own .

I do not believe we should have gun control, because it is way more easier to get an unregistered gun than a registered one, and what happens when someone breaks into your home and has a gun that’s unregistered but the government took away your right to bear arms, so no matter what laws are in place someone will always find a way to get a gun, so in conclusion it’s not a good idea for gun control.^_^
Roman Camacho
9/13/2019 11:24:56 am
Red flag laws are an abuse of power because the police can't take away a firearm that can be used to protect someone. In the article "Red Flag Laws" it states that a 61 year old man was killed because police abused their power just to take a mans registered power. Sheriffs in a lot of states are saying they feel uncomfortable upholding these laws. Firearms cannot be taken away just because the police decide. They need to have a reason before taking it.

Red flag laws are somewhat an abuse of power. If you think someone is dangerous just because of their race or ethnicity, you can take away their firearm; it's not fair. However, on the other hand, many people live stream with a gun before they go kill people in a mass shooting. Red flag laws help people in this situation because you can save tens of lives. Red flag laws should be used very carefully because someone can sue you or they can die that night for not being protected with a firearm.

In my opinion, Red Flag Laws aren’t an abuse of power. Yes, the fourth amendment states that no one, especially law enforcement, has the right to go inside someone’s home and do unreasonable searches for anything without a warrant, but when someone is posting on social media about racists comments and how they’re going to do horrible things to a community isn’t fair. I strongly believe that law enforcement should always be involved in something massive like a shooting that may occur. Everyone should be protected.

Anyelina Montano Per.3
9/13/2019 07:00:17 pm
In my opinion, red flag laws are an abuse of power only because of the Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment states, "...the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed". This means that people can have the right to have firearms and it should not be broken. Also, the Fourth Amendment states, "The right of the people to secure...against unreasonable searches and seizures...". This means that no one can just enter or search your property. The article "Red Flag Laws Current Event" says, "...Harry can report you and say that they think you're dangerous and that you have firearms, and then law enforcement...they are not required to give an advanced notice". So this means that the second and fourth amendments are being violated. I believe that red flag laws are an abuse of power, but I also believe that there should be some king of gun control laws since there is a lot of gun violence in our country.

In my opinion, red flag laws are not an abuse of power. This is my opinion because it's better to be safe than sorry. We have seen countless amounts of mass shootings by people who are not mentally stable, and even post about what they plan to do. The red flag laws help make sure that mass shootings don't continue to happen. Someone is able to report someone else if they are expressing dangerous behavior, and then they get checked. If they are fine, they have a chance to gain their gun back. In the article it explains "..you can try to get your property back and clear your name if you have been falsely accused."
Ashley Aparicio Per.2

Red flag laws are an abuse of power as it violates our rights as American citizens. According to the article “Red Flag Laws”, any person can report you to the police and say you’re a dangerous person with a firearm. The police can then enter your home without a warrant and take your property away. This violates the 4th amendment as police do not have the right to enter our home without a warrant. Also, the second amendment says that it is our right to bear arms. The Red Flag laws contradicts that right which is why we should not enforce it. The Red Flag laws gives law enforcement too much power, which is why it’s an abuse of power.
Buanca Rodas Period 3
9/15/2019 05:10:59 pm
Red flag laws are an abuse of power because it goes against the Bill of Rights. According to the article, anyone can report someone they think is dangerous with a firearm, which allows the police to take away their property without a warrant. This led to a man,named Tucker, being killed when the police demanded to take his property away. This violates the second amendment (where you have the right bear arms) and the fourth amendment (where police have no right to enter your home without a warrant). The red flag laws led to Tucker’s death when he simply had the rights as a citizen. This shows that the red flag laws allow law enforcement to take advantage of their power over the people’s rights. Therefore, red flag laws is an abuse of power.
