The DOJ has announced [SEE HERE] a national center to monitor and assist states with Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPO), otherwise known as “Red Flag” laws and procedures to monitor gun owners and confiscate firearms from sketchy owners.
According to the announcement, the intent is to help states remove dangerous firearms from people who are identified as “at risk” to perpetrate violence.
“The launch of the National Extreme Risk Protection Order Resource Center will provide our partners across the country with valuable resources to keep firearms out of the hands of individuals who pose a threat to themselves or others,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.
“ERPO laws, which are modeled off domestic violence protection orders, create a civil process allowing law enforcement, family members (in most states), and medical professionals or other groups (in some states) to petition a court to temporarily prohibit someone at risk of harming themselves or others from purchasing and possessing firearms for the duration of the order.”
[…] Through the Center and its newly launched website, states, local governments, law enforcement, prosecutors, attorneys, judges, clinicians, victim service providers, and behavioral health and other social service providers will have direct access to critical information that will enhance their ability to reduce firearm homicides and suicides.

With Johns Hopkins and the Bloomberg School of Public Health in control of the database, and with the Dept of Justice – which includes the FBI in full support, problematic white males will likely be identified as the gravest threat requiring immediate supervision. Be careful what opinions you post on social media.
From the Resource Center – “As of March 2024, 21 states and the District of Columbia have enacted ERPO laws. Though the names of these laws and the laws themselves vary by state, the process is similar for most petitioners. In all states, ERPOs are civil, not criminal, court orders. However, violation of an ERPO law may be a criminal offense depending on state law.
ERPOs temporarily prohibit a person from possessing or purchasing firearms and provide a process for the removal of firearms already in the person’s possession. The possession of a firearm is not required for an individual to be an ERPO respondent. An ERPO also temporarily prevents someone who is behaving dangerously or at risk of committing violence from purchasing and possessing firearms.” (Read More)
