This is nuts!

This would mean that no one (including family members) could EVER possess a firearm IF a spouse, relative, close friend, etc. was a convicted felon and living with them?

Give me a F'n break already.

I had a friend years ago who took in a friend who was on Parole (white colar, non-violent offense) and could not keep firearms in his house while this other person was staying there and on Parole, but I've NEVER heard that once a person has served their sentence there was a prohibition from allowing someone who was a felon from living with you if you owned any weapon?

Someone have the USC Statute on that one???

OK, so now I get it. If you know someone has a felony conviction or a history of mental illness, you can no longer invite them into your home if you have a weapon. While there are aspects of this case that seem to support the decision, I feel the ruling is far too broad. The NRA needs to look into this as it opens the door for further entrapment of honest gun owners.

You are correct, the goal is to have “second hand civil rights revokation”

ala second hand smoke.
