This Republican senator made an incredibly insensitive remark about red flag laws

Making insensitive remarks about gun laws isn't a good look.
But that's exactly what North Dakota Republican Sen. Kevin Cramer did on Tuesday when asked about red flag measures, which are designed to help keep guns out of the hands of people identified as an immediate risk to themselves or others. The legislation was spurred by the mass school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, last month.
Here's what Cramer said (bold is mine):

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
