Report: Gun Confiscations Surge Under California Red Flag Law

Figures from the California Justice Department show that gun confiscations are surging under the state’s red flag law.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports there were 86 gun confiscation orders issued in California in 2016 and 104 in 2017. There were 424 orders issued in 2018.

The surge is largely due to approaches adopted by counties like San Diego, where the state-level adoption of a red flag law opened the door to county and municipal confiscatory plans.

How much would you care to bet that they always "err on the side of caution" and confiscate on the shakiest of claims?

If nothing else, Kalifornia is a laboratory for demonstrating the real-world results of "sensible gun control". In another year or so we'll be able to cite stories of all the hysterical neighbors and vengeful ex's who got peoples' guns wrongfully confiscated.

Can't we just confiscate politicians instead? That would solve a lot of problems
