'These are hard questions': Watch GOP's Crenshaw dismiss every CNN proposal for gun control laws https://t.co/OtkqVGO3t5

"Well, no. Here's why: because we are essentially trying to do with the red flag law is enforce the law before the law has been broken. That's a really difficult thing to do. It's difficult to assess whether somebody is a threat. If they're such a threat that they're threatening somebody with a weapon already, they have already broken the law so why do you need the next law? That's the question critics rightfully ask about this."Red flag laws are not “violated.” It’s a regulatory measure. If a person merits a “red flag,” they are merely blocked from buying a gun. They aren’t arrested, shamed, or ostracized. As everyone agrees (or pays lip service to), we want to keep guns away from “crazy” people. Red flag laws let us do that before they shoot people and “prove” they are “crazy”.
And no, these are not hard questions.
Dan Crenshaw, unsurprisingly, is full of shit.
