Don't we already have laws that ban possession of firearms by people convicted of domestic violence misdemeanors?
We sure do. The Lautenberg Amendment levies a lifetime ban on firearms ownership, even if the offense was a misdemeanor. The law is overbroad and ex post facto. Isn't that exactly what gun-control advocates want?
