Last week, anti-gun representatives introduced Assembly Bill 350 to create “red flag” gun confiscation orders in Wisconsin. It has been referred to the Assembly Judiciary Committee. Please contact your lawmakers and ask them to OPPOSE AB 350.
CLICK HERE, TAKE ACTION!
Assembly Bill 350 allows for the seizure of an individual’s firearms on baseless accusations without a hearing or other opportunity for the evidence to be heard in court. They permit the government to seize firearms based on weak and nebulous standards of evidence.
A person subject to a suspension of a Constitutional right should be entitled to high evidentiary standards, an opportunity to be heard, and the right to face his or her accusers. Civil liberties advocates from across the political spectrum have expressed concerns about these “red flag” bills and how the procedure might lead to abuses because of insufficient due process protections in the bills.
Again, please contact your lawmakers and ask them to OPPOSE AB 350.

All of the commentary about lack of due process aside, I just had an epiphany of sorts – unless tptb have a comprehensive list of ALL firearms an individual has, how will they ‘know’ for sure that they have confiscated all of them? Yet another strike against registration schemes.
These idiots promoting these red flag laws are the same clowns who supported the riots in Kenosha . Nothing else needs to be said .
As many times as you’ve (NRA) screwed your members, I’m sure your in lock step right along side of them!
All of the bill’s sponsors are democrats with the exception of one republican, Bob Donovan from Greenfield. I’ve contacted my rep. With a majority of repubs in the assembly, I’m hoping that this will go nowhere fast.
MM, Cali is the worst….A naked man bearing a large knife and masturbating in front of children is not enough for the cops to get involved. They say, “it is not a crime to brandish a knife and masturbate in an apartment complex.” Wowee and yipee! I live in Seattle, but to my knowledge, we have not yet sunk that far………
reason I have my land posted ,I shoot first ask questions later.
