Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) on Sunday said he will “take a hard look” at why Colorado’s red flag law did not stop the shooting at Club Q earlier this month, adding that an expansion of the legislation may be examined.

“We’re certainly going to take a hard look at why [the] red flag law wasn’t used in this case and the case of the King Soopers shooter, what can be used to better publicize, make available, add different parties to make sure that it’s used when it should be used,” Polis told NBC’s Chuck Todd on “Meet the Press,” referencing a mass shooting at a Boulder, Colo., supermarket last year.

Because you arrested someone after a 4 hour swat standoff for a bomb and murder threat in a domestic violence scenario, and dropped charges leaving no criminal record for a red flag search to discover.

Because gun control only affects law abiding citizens, violent criminals and mentally ill persons will always be able to get guns unless they are locked up in jail or mental hospitals for long, long periods of time.

I saw this on a poster:
“I was considering reselling my guns to the government, but after a quick background check I discovered they have a history of violence and instability.”

The derp state cabal WANTS mass shootings so they can SWAY the public into acceptance of FIREARM BANS.

Did anyone see the outdoor interview of the supposed VETERAN who stopped the killer? ROFL! DOES THAT SCREAM FALSE FLAG OR WHAT? What an IDIOT that guy is, MAN BUN AND ALL. A TOTAL SLOB AND OBVIOUS CRISIS ACTOR.

When a guy THREATENS TO BLOW HIS MOTHER UP and has a STANDOFF WITH SWAT, HE IS THE PERFECT TARGET TO SET-UP FOR A MASS SHOOTINGS. I'll bet the FIB has a LONG LIST of potential RECRUITS for future mass shootings.

That, and crime always, ALWAYS goes up after stricter gun control laws are passed.

Who could have expected that?

It failed because red flag laws aren’t designed to stop mass shootings.

Because NITWIT, you cannot control it. Too many guns, too many insane people.

Because the laws don’t stop criminals, just the law abiding citizens that are trying to protect themselves.

Disarming Americans has never been the answer, and it’s just making things worse.

Unfortunately, the state’s response will be to red flag every honest gun owner.

Maybe “Red Flag” failed because the perp was non-binary, his SM showed it and nobody in LEFT-WORLD thought anything was wrong.
