‘We Are KY Gun Owners’ organized a rally at the Kentucky Capitol on Friday in support of their most treasured right, the Second Amendment.
About a 100 people in camo and masks protested “a handful of firearms-related bills proposed in the 2020 legislative session. One aims to repeal last year’s passage of a law allowing people to carry concealed guns without a permit; another would require background checks for private firearms sales and mandatory reporting of lost or stolen firearms to law enforcement.”
But an as-yet-unfiled extreme risk protection order bill, commonly called a “red flag law,” which would allow for the temporary removal of firearms from people deemed in danger of harming themselves or others, has generated considerable worry among gun-control opponents in Kentucky.
