7/ Of course there's no way to know for sure whether the new gun law would have prevented this massacre, but the law is kind of tailor made for this scenario. The new law gives law enforcement the tools to connect the dots to prevent a shooting like this before it happens. — PolitiTweet.org

6/ A red flag order removes guns from the subject and prevents him from buying new guns. It lasts for 6 months and can be renewed. If a red flag order had been issued in 2020, when Crimo started buying guns, it could have still been in effect today. — PolitiTweet.org

5/ The Illinois red flag law allows police to obtain an order (even without the consent of the parents), and with additional funding (also part of the new gun law), it's likely the Highland Park Police would have known that this was a text book case for a red flag order. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ But under the new law, each time Crimo bought a gun in 2020, the FBI would have been required to call the Highland Park Police to notify them. This would have been key information, bc now the Highland Park Police would know that this dangerous kid was stockpiling weapons. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ In 2020, Crimo began to buy military style guns. Under current law, the FBI simply checks criminal databases and if there is no arrest (which there wasn't for Crimo), the sale goes through. So the Highland Park police likely didn't know this dangerous kid was buying guns. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ The Highland Park killer was known to police. In 2019 police interceded when Crimo tried to kill himself with a machete and again when he threatened to kill family members. At the time, Crimo didn't own a gun, so a red flag law process wasn't relevant. — PolitiTweet.org

The new gun bill requires that local police be notified anytime a 18-20 yr old buys a gun. It also provides funding to help police better administer red flag laws. These two provisions could have prevented the Highland Park shooting. 1/ It's important you understand how: — PolitiTweet.org

During my walk across Connecticut, so many teachers told me that they were sick of being attacked. Banning books, firing teachers because of their politics, calling them the "KKK with summers off" - the Republican assault on teachers has to end. https://t.co/eHp9SpMbMt — PolitiTweet.org

Throughout the walk, but especially today, it’s been so gratifying to have so many people come find me along the route to say how much the support the gun safety bill. And it’s always a parent of young kids or a student. #WalkCT https://t.co/QeFKYn3Xyr — PolitiTweet.org

A Bethany mom just stopped me along the walk, fighting back tears. “I tell my son ‘I love you’ every morning when he gets on the bus, bc after Uvalde, I want to make sure it’s the last thing I say to him if he doesn’t make it home. It’s unacceptable I have to think that way.” — PolitiTweet.org
