New York's 'red flag law' drawing mixed reviews

WHEC TV:
Stepping in before it's too late. That's the goal of New York's red flag law.

Mathison co-chairs the Monroe County chapter for the gun education group Shooters Committee on Political Education (SCOPE). He says the law is unconstitutional and that it lacks the right protections for legal gun owners.
