Can you imagine what life would be like without the Bill of Rights guaranteed in our US Constitution? Red Flag Laws, which permit the confiscation of lawfully owned weapons from an individual on the basis of what a person might do, with an emphasis on “might,” are being passed in many states. Consequently, the overwhelming injustices this law has produced give us an indication of what can happen when our rights and liberties are systematically ignored. In the video, Stephen Nichols, an 84-year-old Korean War Veteran, lost his school crossing guard job, and had his guns confiscated based on a false report from a waitress. The waitress overheard only part of the conversation Nichols was having with his co-worker. She mistakenly concluded that he was a danger to the school. Even though Nichols got his job back, he did not get his guns back. According to reports, he does not have the financial means to hire an attorney to clear his name in court and get his property returned to him which could cost approximately $20,000 or more in legal fees.
