In response to recent attacks from Democrat lawmakers and governors retaliating against the 2024 election results by threatening the Second Amendment rights of their constituents, new legislation has been filed in the great state of Texas that, if passed, will prohibit the recognition, service and enforcement of “red flag” orders. This epic pro-Second Amendment legislation takes things a necessary step further, providing real consequences for anyone in violation.
House Bill 162, the “Anti-Red Flag Act” by State Representative Briscoe Cain (R-Deer Park), not only blocks state and local entities from recognizing and enforcing extreme risk protective orders commonly referred to as red flag laws, but strikes at the federal incentivizing agenda to enact them.
Red flag laws brazenly violate the Constitutional right to due process, as law enforcement, per a judge’s order, may use them to confiscate firearms from anyone they believe or are reported to be at risk of committing a crime.
