What does 'red flag' law in Massachusetts allow?

The seizure of firearms from anyone

The seizure of firearms with a court order from individuals posing a risk to themselves or others

The 'red flag' law in Massachusetts allows for the seizure of firearms, however this does not apply to just anyone. It specifically targets individuals who pose a risk to themselves or others. This measure is put in place to prevent potential harm and violence caused by firearms in the possession of someone who has exhibited dangerous behavior. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the purpose of the 'red flag' law in Massachusetts. It is not meant to be a blanket seizure of all firearms or a means to bypass background checks for firearm sales. It also does not allow for unrestricted carrying of firearms in public.
