NRA opposes 'red flag' gun restrictions, CEO Wayne LaPierre says

No legislation starts with that level of specificity; it starts with an intent.

The specifics get developed in the legislative process. Via hearings, expert testimony, public input, the committee process. I’ve been involved in several bills- none of them started with those specifics - though often stating this was needed prior to beginning the process was an indicator of who wanted to kill the bill.

The specifics of the 1964 civil rights bill, the ACA, the defense budget- not listed out before the process.

Hey - and if they get it slightly wrong and we think that not enough people have guns- we can always amend it.
