Rep. John Andrews, R-Paris, said his party’s first priority with regard to firearms would be protecting the state and federal rights of gun owners. But he planned to introduce a bill in the coming session he believed would save lives and protect licensed gun sellers at the same time—through a so-called “yellow alert system.” “If someone does something to trigger a statewide alert, FFLs (Federal Firearms Licenses)—or gun dealers—would get a text and a photo—kind of like an Amber Alert,” Andrews explained. “We would call it a yellow alert system—basically telling them, ‘Do not sell to this person. They are either wanted by the police or are in crisis.'” [More]
