Dear Committee, I am a resident of Connecticut and wish to voice my opposition for Bill 6355. Your opposition for this bill is important to me. There are already laws on the books that can protect people instead of this bill changing the existing law into something which I see being too easy to abuse.

There are current laws written making offenses with firearms illegal, as well as domestic violence offenses. Please make harsher penalties for offenders of our current Red Flag Laws and do not target law abiding citizens. Stripping people’s ability...
