Yeah, I left out thugs. Fixed it.He was much more than a "wife beater". He was violently dangerous around everyone he came into contact with including Road Rage incidents.

What is terror of the people? Is that terroristic threats? Or something different?

Edit:
So the court found that anyone who is given a restraining order looses their 2a right?
I have wondered the same from the outset. If he had committed all those other violent acts, where were the prosecutions and convictions for them? Seems they (prosecutors collectively) were putting all their eggs in one basket with the Federal Protection Order Possessor trial and conviction. He still needs to answer for all those other acts of violence.I still think this sets up the non-violent felons losing 2A rights getting tossed in a few days.
A bad check writer and a food stamp fraudster are a lot more sympathetic than a wife beater, road rager, and drive by shooter. Which does bring up the question (posed similarly by Justice Thomas in his dissent,) "Why wasn't Rahimi doing 20 years in prison?"
That's why I agreed with Justice Thomas.I still think this sets up the non-violent felons losing 2A rights getting tossed in a few days.

. Restraining orders are temporary. Should not the restraints end when the order ends?
Do you think they don't?
Well, the restraining order was for two years (outrageous) and he rec'd a six year sentence and is prohibited from ever owning guns or ammunition in perpetuity. I'd say that describes a situation where the restraints continue after the order has expired.Do you think they don't?
Adjudicated thugs and wife beaters, yes. Even alleged thugs and wife beaters have Due Process rights. It is the latter that is the real concern, because Red Flag laws can be used to circumvent Due Process based on mere allegation.Yeah, thugs and wife beaters should not have guns... However there should be a way to restore your rights if you've served your time and proved you have reformed yourself.
I don't believe the decision makes this finding at all. It isn't carte blanche. It is narrowly tailored.Edit:

Why? Because of the scumbag prosecutors of the world like Alvin Bragg and Ryan Mears.I have wondered the same from the outset.
