WASHINGTON — Senate Judiciary Committee chair Lindsey Graham told BuzzFeed News he will start crafting legislation next week to expand police powers to preemptively seize firearms from people believed to be a danger to themselves or others.

Graham is angling to get bipartisan support for his bill, and has been in discussions with Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal. Neither would outline specifics Thursday beyond saying it will be an original piece of legislation. Graham said work on hammering out the contents of the bill will begin next week.

We voted to take them away from Felonia von Pantzsuit, who, as Caliguletta, might by now have been affecting involuntary attrition among her despised secret service staff.

They could deem anyone “dangerous.” He is an idiot for bringing this out. Sometimes Linseed is on our side and sometimes he is not.

And that’s the bad thing about the laws. You piss off your sister, she runs to the nearest police station and courthouse, while you’re away for the weekend. On Monday morning the police are your house taking your stuff.

So let’s see now...

In Linda’s brain, if you don’t like male pedophiles, that would make you a “dangerous person”, right?

Especially if he thought you might use armed intervention on someone like that trying to practice their “genetic proclivity”.

A lot of people think that I’m dangerous: male, white, over 60, conservative, Christian

Don’t have a warm, fuzzy feeling about this. One day the Commie radical Left will turn this against good, decent, harmless people

Well if the bill passes both houses and Trump is dumb enough to sign it wont survive a Supreme Court challenge because of due process. These red flag laws are getting into minority report territory.

Coming soon to your neighborhood:

We’ve come to seize your guns because we have determined that you might be a danger to us when we try to seize your guns.

ALL of SC’s Congressional delegation are Cheap Labor Express stooges.

ALL Bush League Republicans MUST be replaced.

Bush League Republicans want to help the Democrats get a permanent majority through amnesty.

For 2020, the ones up are, Flimsey Grahamnesty, Thom Tillis, Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, McConnell.
They all should have primary challengers.

It does US no good to have a bunch of people wearing R jerseys that still want to pass amnesty and give away our country.

Slippery slope with added oil and grease. This will not end well if it goes through.

Can the people also take away a politicians right to serve if we get, say, 15 signatures? Same thing.
