As the 2024 election draws closer, the debate over gun control has intensified, with activists like David Hogg pushing — as always — for stricter regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During an ABC News<\/em> <\/a>interview this week, Hogg argued, “No gun owner, no person in this country wants gun violence to continue. So let’s focus on what we can agree on, like disarming people that are a risk to themselves or others.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basically, he’s pushing “red flag” laws. Confiscatory laws that empower the government to seize firearms from people accused — not convicted — of being a threat to themselves and others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hogg refuses to acknowledge the many problems <\/a>with these laws, particularly as it relates to due process. Allowing the government to take guns first, and ask questions later is a recipe for trouble. But, of course, Hogg doesn’t see it that way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The topic then turned to Gov. Tim Walz (D), who once enjoyed the support of the NRA and claimed to be a “lifelong hunter.” Walz reportedly changed his tune after the Parkland shooting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Influenced by his daughter\u2019s pleas, Walz returned NRA donations and supported comprehensive gun control legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hogg praised this shift, stating, “It shows that he’s a principled leader who has his beliefs. But ultimately, when times change… he listens.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
