Massachusetts is poised to become the latest state allowing relatives, other household members and romantic partners to initiate legal action that would temporarily remove guns from people considered a danger to themselves or others.
The House voted 139-14 in May to approve extreme risk protection orders — commonly known as a “red flag” gun bill — and the Senate passed its version by voice vote last week. We urge the Legislature to quickly resolve minor differences in the bills and send the legislation to Gov. Charlie Baker, who has signaled his support. |

| No, it mustn't. No law without due process BEFORE, not AFTER the fact. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
