In the wake of a terror attack against Jewish people in Boulder, Colorado, Alan Dershowitz, Harvard law professor emeritus, told Newsmax Tuesday that more must be done to prevent violence.
“We need to develop techniques to prevent predictable violence,” Dershowitz told “Newsline.” “This is entirely predictable when you have people at Harvard and at Columbia shoving and breaking property and holding people hostage, janitors being held hostage; the next step from there to getting a gun or getting Molotov cocktails and murdering people is a thin one.”
Dershowitz added, “And we can accurately now predict that there will be more actions of this kind against Jews, against Israelis, against Christian supporters of Israel. So we have to be on our guard, and we have to take preventive measures.”
Dershowitz said he supports extending red flag laws beyond guns and extending it to people who make threats with weapons.
“There have to be preventative mechanisms we can put in place,” Dershowitz said.
Dershowitz said we also must do more to prevent illegal immigrants from obtaining weapons.
“Deportation is one of the primary preventive mechanisms that I discuss in my book,” Dershowitz said. “It goes back to biblical times. We called it exile back then, but every society from the beginning of time has always tried to rid itself of people who they reasonably believe pose a danger to their society. Every country, every society has the right to determine who its members are.”
