Stop editorializing the title. The link is just a PDF file of a public petition to the Senate, where the bolded paragraph reads:
> That's why we urge the Senate to stand with the American public and take action on gun safety by passing a bill to require background checks on all gun sales and a strong Red
Flag law that would allow courts to issue life-saving extreme risk protection orders.
And nowhere in the document appears "confiscation", "confiscate", etc.
- wowzap 7y agoRed Flag Laws = Gun Confiscation Orders. Just because they aren't using the most accurate terms doesn't mean I am editorializing the article. Look at their implementation in the states. All of these laws have the same ends, gun confiscation before due process. Maybe the due process takes place in a week, maybe it takes place in a year, in any case, these are gun confiscation orders with no conviction of a crime and in many cases, no evidence that a crime has even occurred. Red Flag Laws = Gun Confiscation Orders.
- yongjik 7y agoGuns = Lethal Killing Machines, but if New York Times writes "Silicon Valley luminaries want fewer lethal killing machines in society" I'm pretty sure you'll be unhappy about the title. Editorializing is editorializing.
