The Senate hearing Tuesday will focus on guidelines that a handful of states have used to implement red flag laws, something that Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., has signaled he would support on the federal level.

Graham told CNN earlier this month that he saw red flag measures as "prevention," adding that he and President Trump have "definitely" spoken about it.

Last year Graham, along with Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., began working on legislation, but their efforts never became law.

It’s those damn immigrants. How dare they escape their socialistic country to seek freedom/liberty and want to work. Multi-generational American welfare recipients have everything under control here.

Build the wall, disarm the people, the feds/government with guns will keep everybody safe. It’s a good thing republicans are proposing this, because if it was democrats, it would be a bad thing.

The Overton Window moves left under Republicans and right under Democrats, because Americans are such good team players they'll bend over as far as asked for "their own" flavor of tyrants.

Seeking liberty and Freedom, blsht , Seeking handouts and opportunity.

Those illegals as you fail to admit, were born and raised without owning guns, the gun
owners there are the drug cartel and the federales .

They come here as socialist voters , that's why liberals block every effort to protect
our borders today, illegals are the greatest supporters of the Socialist-Liberal NWO.

We always get the best gun control from half assed, ex democrat, actors turned Republican.

This is a common tactic used by donor classes/puppet masters. Recruitment and funding of a candidate whose rhetoric pre-election has the most appeal for the masses hungry for "change" and fed up with their last puppet's deeds. And after political capital build up & election win , some symbolic jestures and lot of theatre for the change hungry masses and then real policy execution is often the opposite of what they promised to voters. "Anti-war" Obama overseeing one of the most deadly mideast destabilization bloodbath interventions regime from Libya to Syria and beyond was recent example. Europe is paying a big price today for that with massive refugees influx.

Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio, two RINO neoconservatives. Marco gets to take McCain’s place so that the establishment can say “bipartisan” when they support Democrat initiatives.

Pew? I don't trust Pew any more than any other MSM rag.

Everyone here needs to get rid of that left/right paradigm, which is complete bullshit- there is only one side with every politician (save a very few) barking the correct words to their constituents, while on the exact same path as the "opposition."

That's almost certainly true. There has been so much brainless fearmongering around immigrants, there are Republicans dribbling down their legs when their grass is cut. What better way to get gun control enacted than to scare the piss out of GOPers?

You don't understand conservatives at all, do you?

If we were afraid of immigrant criminals it would make us insist on keeping our guns.

The excessive immigration from authoritarian countries has given the Demoncrats and RINOs enough of a voter base that this is a threat in spite of the native shifting towards gun rights in recent decades.

"As he (Trump) launched his campaign, the conservative National Review reported (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/420093/presidential-candidate-donald-trump-double-agent-for-left) that he was a registered Democrat from 2001 to 2009 and praised a Canadian-style universal health care system. Party affiliation in the United States is usually changed by ticking a box while registering to vote and doesn't imply any financial contribution. However Trump has also shown a willingness to contribute considerable sums to Democratic causes (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/420435/donald-trump-hasnt-voted-last-six-presidential-primaries-jillian-kay-melchior) - including Hillary Clinton's campaign for Senate in 2002."

Democrats are leftist statist marxists. Republicans are Neocons, which is also Left Leaning. The entire political environment leans to the left, which is ALWAYS AND FOREVER for ever bigger government.

You got to be kidding?
Rubio got more money from America-First MAGA's top donor Adelson than any other Senator, Cruz is also another pillar of AIPAC and our closest ally in mideast.

MAGA will never approve of his supporters going against politicians funded by his top donor, be it Rubio or Netanyahu. Lot of naivete around here.

Georgia Gun Owners member Marjorie Taylor Greene is back at it again, this time confronting Senator Lindsey Graham on the topic of red flag laws.

On Twitter, Taylor Greene claims (https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1110683712520372224) that Senator Graham won’t promote a red flag bill that violates due process rights after confronting him on the issue.

The South Carolina Senator re-assured her that he “owns guns too” and will not move a bill that violates due process.
However, this promise may not be a sure thing.
