For the first time, a judge has denied a request to take away a mans guns under Colorados new red flag law. A Limon woman claimed a man who she had a relationship with threatened her with a gun and filed the request.
Since the law took effect, the red flag law has had many gun owners seeing red. At least four requests have been filed since the first of 2020; CBS4 is aware of them being filed in Denver, in Larimer County and this one in Lincoln County.
Many gun owners, like Jak Gruenberg, despise it.
Red flag laws just allow for harassment of legal gun owners, he said.
The law allows guns to be taken away from those who present a danger to themselves or others. The decision is up to a judge.
CBS4 obtained the request for a temporary extreme risk protection order filed in Limon. A woman wrote she was getting verbal and physical threats with a handgun from the man identified in the order.

“No judge in his right mind”
From the looks of things these days those are hard to find
Not to mention his dog shot.
They do not need know what you have to get a search warrant under "Red Flag" laws. They only need to know what somebody says you have. Anything else they may find is just a bonus for them.
So many false claims of abuse. Its often how women try to get power.
BINGO!
Just keep a “throwaway” gun. Tell others that is “your gun”.
“Is it dead?” :)
Someone here at work just told me about this.
The article lies.
The law allows guns to be taken away from those who present a danger to themselves or others.
Nope.
It should read, From those who allegedly present a danger...
And theres no repercussions applied to accusers who make false allegations.
