In case anyone doesn't know, a "red flag" law is where someone can call the police and say that they're afraid someone will commit a crime, the police then come in and take away that person's legally owned firearms.
Ridiculously, Democrats have rejected a modification which would make red flag laws apply to people who are on a gang database, even though gang members commit the most gun crimes by a huge margin and the point of a gang database is to identify people who are believed to have a higher chance of committing crimes.
I wonder what the rationale or justification for that is supposed to be?
