Got this today. Please contact these people before Tuesday.

We just found out that the anti-gun *leadership* in the New Hampshire State House has decided that HB1660 a RED FLAG 'Eldercare Gun Confiscation Bill' is a *must* pass bill.  The bill as been sent over to the Senate, ahead of all of the other bills and there is a hearing on Tuesday, March 3rd at 9:15am. [State House Room 100].

This is the same anti-gun committee that heard SB469, the '2020 Sen. Jeanne Dietsch Range Closure Act" and did not move the hearing to a larger room to allow the many gun owners a chance to participate in the hearing.

The have just made this Gun Confiscation bill a top legislative priority to get to the Governor's desk and we need everyone on board with stopping it.

WE NEED YOU THERE!

At a minimum, please contact the Governor's office at 603-271-2121 AND to Email the committee.

Red Flag Laws are BAD, and here is why. [Link to AmmoLand Red Flag Article]

By now you have undoubtedly heard that our legislature has become enamored with the latest anti-gun tactic called “Red Flag” Laws or Extreme Risk Protective Orders (ERPO). Even some Republicans and so called gun rights supporters and gun rights organizations have joined the ranks of Moms Demand Action (Bloomberg funded), Everytown for Gun Safety, Alliance for Gun Responsibility (Gifford’s group) and other anti-gun groups in their quest to confiscate weapons.
In 2013 when the Consortium for Risk-Based Firearm Policy first convened (the group that first conceived and promoted the concept), they quickly moved away from addressing mental health issues in order to address “dangerous behavior”. They also admitted that the primary goal was to develop “a legal tool to remove firearms” from those who might be considered or reported to be dangerous.
To be very clear, ERPO’s/Red Flag Laws are intended to remove firearms…this is the primary goal of this movement! If you are still not convinced, take a look at who wrote the original framework of ERPO’s Back in 2013: The Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence, Joyce Foundation and the New Venture Fund.
The Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence is a sister organization to Coalition to Stop Gun Violence which had its beginnings in a group called National Coalition to Ban Handguns. According to Wikipedia, this group advocated for and established the goal of:  requiring licensing of gun owners, registering firearms, and banning private ownership of handguns. The Joyce Foundation has as one of their 3 primary objectives: “Reducing gun violence through state policy reform, research, education, and legal strategies.” The New Venture Fund is considered by many as a “dark money” organization, serving as a way for left-leaning groups to anonymously funnel money toward various political advocacy issues” according to Influence Watch.
They all want to take your guns!
So why NH?
New Hampshire Firearms Coalition recently posted some interesting statistics about the state of NH, including the fact that it is ranked as the 3rd safest state in the country, and has one of the highest gun ownership rates of any state. Still, our liberal legislature is attempting to force ERPO’s upon its citizens through 5 different bills! What is worse, some so-called Republican and conservative gun advocates either co-sponsored or supported these bills (SB-677, SB-574, HB-687, HB-1509, HB-1660)! There is no honest, objective reason to push for gun control in a state as safe and gun friendly as New Hampshire.
In examining ERPO’s, they have a number of unconstitutional faults:
No Due Process
In the words of Attorney Michael Hammond “due process which occurs only after someone has lost all their constitutional rights is no "due process" at all.”
Ex Parte hearings
Hearings do not allow the aggrieved to present an argument or legal defense of their constitutional rights. The Confrontation Clause found in the Sixth Amendment provides that “in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right…to be confronted with the witnesses against him.” (The Truth about Guns)
Contradicts the 2nd amendment
The right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. ERPO’s confiscate weapons, regardless of what the left wants you to think.
Guns are not the problem

Americans own hundreds of millions of guns, and only a miniscule fraction of one percent of those guns are ever used to harm anyone. (AmmoLand)
Red Flag Laws don’t reduce Risk
ERPO’s do not remove knives, poison, car keys and other means by which an individual could end their life or harm others. Guns are unfairly, and insidiously singled out and targeted.

Even the liberal ACLU has voiced concerns with ERPO’s. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Rhode Island, for instance, has serious qualms with that state’s red flag law.
“In a 14-page analysis, the organization last year took issue with “the breadth of this legislation, its impact on civil liberties, and the precedent it sets for the use of coercive measures against individuals, not because they are alleged to have committed any crime, but because somebody believes they might, someday, commit one.” (Salon, March 2019)

New Hampshire Firearms Coalition is leading the charge in Concord to stop these types of bills, and the dangerous movement to rid law abiding citizens of their firearms and God-given rights.
We need all gun owners, shooting ranges, FFL/gun dealers and constitutionally minded citizens to join us in the fight to save New Hampshire and the freedoms we currently have.
Call your representative and senator today.
Call Governor Sununu at 271-2121 TODAY, and let him know that we don’t need Red Flag laws in NH, nor do we need any further gun restrictions.
