Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : We are among 19 states that have "red flag" provisions enabling law enforcement to seize weapons from people considered unstable or dangerous.
36% : As all of us try, and most of us fail, to wrap our heads around the unspeakably tragic, pointless loss of life in Highland Park on the Fourth of July, one theme that has been recurring over the last 24 hours is the question of why Illinois gun laws weren't enough to prevent the shooter from getting his weapons of mass destruction.
