Domestic violence suspects are often required to turn in any guns. A Federal court threw out that rule for three states, and people who fight domestic violence worry the ruling could affect Arizona.
TUCSON, Ariz. — When someone’s accused of domestic violence—and ordered to stay away—that order often includes a requirement to turn in any guns. But a Federal court threw out that requirement for three states, and people who fight domestic violence worry the ruling could eventually affect Arizona.
Rachel Tineo knows what can happen when there’s an angry person and a gun come together. Her niece Tina is dead because an ex-boyfriend, under a restraining order, had a gun in easy reach. It’s common in most states for judges to set protective orders that also order that person to turn in his or her guns. Now a Federal appeals court says that breaks the Second Amendment.
The judges wrote: “The question presented in this case is not whether prohibiting the possession of firearms by someone subject to a domestic violence restraining order is a laudable policy goal. The question is whether 18 U.S.C. § 922, a specific statute that does so, is constitutional under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. “
