Why should I be mad?

It's a red flag law.

It can be abused to hell. If somebody accuses you of being a threat, your rights can be stripped by the legal system without a hearing. So suppose somebody has an ax to grind with you and lies about you being a threat to them... see where I'm going with this?

Nevermind the fact that it's a blatant violation of the fourth amendment's due process clause.

The NICS Denial system will spark a criminal investigation into you if you fail a NICS background check. About 90% of the NICS denials are false positives. You'll be automatically put on the defensive and have to spend money to defend your good name if the ATF/FBI gets it wrong.

Okay. I didn't read it as a red flag law. Just permitting locals to be notified of failed background checks.

After going 13 months without a seizure, Thor has now had 2 in the last 6 days. Had one at 2 AM/3AM (right at the time change) on Sunday morning.

How is he bearing up?

Dad has had a really bad flue of late. Covid tests are negative, but it's sure going on for a while. I had it too, but lighter.

Okay all things considered. We have increased his medication dosage, the vet is hoping that it will help. It's really scary during the seizures though and when it's finally over, the poor guy is really out of it for about 20 minutes or so. Confused, stumbling around, won't settle down....

The flu can be rough. Did he get a flu shot this year? The one year I got it when I decided not to get a flu shot, I felt like I was going to die. Then, I got it one time when I did get a flu shot, and it was much milder.

20 minutes? That's horrible

He didn't have the shot this year. I think we all forgot about the flue and without the usual buffers it's going to come back with vengeance.

Poor Thor.

Can you still get the flu shot? I know March is pushing it, but you never know.

You mean, Dad? I have no idea how it works. Isn't it meant to be before winter?

What? How??

[PorkChopSandwiches]

I'm still trying to figure it out, but all my positions were closed out and the money transferred. But, nobody can seem to tell me where it was transferred to, and I didn't get it. I finally got a hold of someone that said they can help me, but will need 1-2 days to investigate further.
