The TRUTH About RED FLAG LAWS
About this video
Colion argues that red flag laws (extreme risk protection orders) fundamentally violate due process and constitutional rights by allowing courts to confiscate firearms from individuals who haven’t been charged with crimes, based solely on one-sided testimony. He breaks down what he sees as the serious flaws in these laws, including the lack of burden of proof, the potential for abuse by vindictive accusers, the financial burden placed on gun owners to recover their property, and his view that existing laws already address genuine threats. Colion contends that red flag laws create a dangerous precedent where rights can be stripped away based on speculation about future behavior rather than actual criminal conduct.
Key takeaways
- Colion teaches that red flag laws allow gun confiscation without criminal charges, based on ex parte hearings where the gun owner cannot defend themselves initially
- According to Colion, the system places enormous burden on the accused to prove they’re not dangerous to a judge who already ruled against them, often requiring expensive legal representation
- Colion warns that the potential for abuse is high, as accusers face minimal consequences for false claims, and existing laws (terroristic threat charges, involuntary commitment) already address genuine dangers
