Red flag laws often have some or all of these problems.
-No Due process for the accused, so guns are simply taken from innocent people and the first they know is when a cop shows up.
-No process to return taken guns or ammo after a specified period.
-Doesn't prevent acquiring new weapons.
-Little or no credibility requirements for red flags.
