The Supreme Court on Friday overwhelmingly upheld the constitutionality of a federal ban on gun ownership by those who have been subject to a domestic violence restraining order. The lone dissent came from Justice Clarence Thomas.
“When an individual has been found by a court to pose a credible threat to the physical safety of another, that individual may be temporarily disarmed consistent with the Second Amendment,” the majority opinion read. “Since the Founding, the Nation’s firearm laws have included regulations to stop individuals who threaten physical harm to others from misusing firearms.”
