Does Louisiana have a 'red flag' law, allowing courts to temporarily remove firearms from someone considered a danger?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only during emergencies

  4. Only for individuals convicted of violent crimes

The correct answer is: No

While Louisiana does have a 'red flag' law, it is currently not in effect. In 2018, the state passed a bill allowing courts to temporarily remove firearms from individuals deemed a danger to themselves or others. However, this law was blocked by a court injunction and is not currently in effect. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because, although there is a law, it is not currently in effect. Option C is incorrect because the emergency exceptions apply to individuals who are already prohibited from purchasing or possessing firearms, not those deemed a danger. Option D is incorrect because the law applies to a broader range of individuals and not just those convicted of violent crimes.
