"San Diego Is Showing California How to Use its Red Flag Law"
"The city has used the gun-control law aggressively — and says it has prevented suicides and mass shootings."

“We can never prove that we saved lives, but we believe we have,” said Elliott.

"A study published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine echoed that sentiment and put some figures on California’s GVRO law. The study, which looked at orders issued between 2016 and 2018 from across the state, found 21 cases that disarmed potential mass shooters."
