Supreme Court Upholds Gun Ban for Domestic Abusers

TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court upheld a federal law barring domestic abusers from owning guns in an 8-1 decision, rejecting arguments that it violated the Second Amendment. This ruling, which saw both conservative and liberal justices in agreement, may support similar federal gun regulations challenged since the court's 2022 expansion of gun rights. Chief Justice John Roberts emphasized that individuals posing a credible threat can be denied access to firearms. The decision is seen as a victory for domestic violence prevention advocates.
