Supreme Court Upholds Gun Ban for Domestic Abusers

The Supreme Court ruled 8-1 that individuals under restraining orders for suspected domestic violence cannot own guns, upholding a 30-year-old law. The decision, delivered by Chief Justice John Roberts, marks a rare victory for firearms restrictions and aligns with common sense to disarm those posing a clear threat of violence. Justice Clarence Thomas dissented, citing Second Amendment concerns. The case involved Zackey Rahimi, a Texas man with a history of armed violence, who argued the law did not meet the Supreme Court's new test for gun regulations.
