This video critically examines Red Flag Laws, also known as Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs), highlighting concerns about their constitutionality and potential to infringe upon Second Amendment rights.

This video analyzes the Associated Press's (AP) fact-check of Gun Owners of America's (GOA) claims regarding HR 7910, specifically concerning 'ghost guns.' GOA argues that the bill's definition of ghost guns is so broad it could criminalize routine firearm disassembly, cleaning, and reassembly for individuals without a manufacturer's license. The AP, citing a Bloomberg-funded professor, suggests the law primarily targets manufacturers and that individuals are unlikely to be charged. However, GOA counters that the bill's redefinition of parts subject to serialization, coupled with the prohibition on manufacturing ghost guns, could indeed impact ordinary gun owners. The video highlights the ambiguity of the legislation and criticizes the AP's reasoning for allegedly overlooking key provisions.
