The government can permanently disarm non-violent felons despite the Second Amendment, a federal appeals court has ruled. On Friday, an en banc panel for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed defendant Steven Duarte’s conviction of being a felon in possession of a firearm. The panel claimed that both Supreme Court dicta and the country’s historical tradition of weapons regulation support the “permanent and categorical disarmament” of all convicted felons.

On May 8, the First Circuit Court of Appeals was asked to consider a case in which a Dominican migrant living in Puerto Rico was convicted under the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA), prohibiting noncitizens from possessing firearms. At the heart of the case, the First Circuit will need to decide whether or not immigrants lacking permanent legal status are part of “the people” Constitutionally protected by the Second Amendment.

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
