Didn't know if anyone wanted to respond to this misinformed person at our local newspaper. Idiot.

Here is the opening snippet:

Red flag laws are needed. Red flag laws have been passed in 17 states and are on the verge of passing in Virginia, leading up to these latest blow-ups around the Second Amendment. The laws allow law enforcement to take guns away from those who are mentally ill or pose a threat.
 
He's the editor of the paper. You can write back in reply, but he probably won't publish it.
 
That is having to prove your innocence rather than being assumed to be innocent until they prove you are guilty. That is not the way it is supposed to work.
It's been that way for a very long time, though. Look at the seizure laws that started (I think) under Bush Sr. We threw out the concept of requiring the government to prove guilt decades ago, we're just expanding the concept now.
 
Good grief that was terribly written. I don’t think they would be able to comprehend a logical response.

That very well may be the case, but it is still not the way it is supposed to work.
