"Senate Judiciary Committee chair Lindsey Graham (Republican) told BuzzFeed News he will start crafting legislation next week to expand police powers to preemptively seize firearms from people believed to be a danger to themselves or others.

Graham is angling to get bipartisan support for his bill, and has been in discussions with Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal. Neither would outline specifics Thursday beyond saying it will be an original piece of legislation. Graham said work on hammering out the contents of the bill will begin next week....Graham told BuzzFeed News on Thursday his bill will provide grants to states that pass extreme risk protection orders, or ERPOs. Also known as “red flag laws,” they allow judges to authorize police to temporarily seize a person’s guns, with no advance notice, if there are grounds to believe the person may commit a violent act."

This completely bypasses due process and what one person can claim is "dangerous" behavior can be morphed into what ever someone else wants it to be. This is very dangerous waters and anyone that wants to bypass due process should be be removed from office and tried for treason.
