Maine's Yellow Flag Law on the map[edit]

Maine's risk-based firearm seizure law is much more restrictive than other states in that it requires an evaluation by a medical professional recommending that firearms be seized, therefore it's widely referred to as a "Yellow Flag Law" instead of red. This is explained in the Usage section but it may be worthwhile to mark it differently on the map? Elijahr241 (talk) 00:19, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
