Gov. \u201cLousy Lee\u201d has earned this moniker due to his \u201clousy\u201d response to the Covenant school shooting.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of calling for common-sense solutions to deter school shootings such as arming willing teachers and passing real Constitutional Carry, he has presented a solution one may expect from the gun grabbers in New York or California.<\/p>\n<p>Lousy Lee has essentially called for red flag gun confiscation in the Volunteer State. In his own words he says, the state needs to \u201cremove individuals who are a threat to themselves or to our society, to remove them from access to weapons.\u201d He further states that he seeks, \u201cto strengthen our laws to separate those dangerous people from firearms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, his proposal is neither effective nor constitutional. Consider California, which has perhaps the strongest red flag law in the country, and that state still leads the country in mass shootings.<\/p>\n<p>Further, gun owners know that red flag gun confiscation violates nearly every right in the Bill of Rights and does not hold to the standard set forth by the <em>Bruen<\/em> decision.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, Lousy Lee has put forth the lousiest solution possible.<\/p>\n<p>However, your voice can still be heard.
