Restraining orders are abused and deprive people of gun rights without having been convicted in any crime.

If someone wants to kill someone. Not having a gun isn’t going to stop them, neither is a restraining order for that matter.

Doubtless, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8) embodies salutary policy goals meant to protect vulnerable people in our society. Weighing those policy goals’ merits through the sort of means-end scrutiny our prior precedent indulged, we previously concluded that the societal benefits of § 922(g)(8) outweighed its burden on Rahimi’s Second Amendment rights. But Bruen forecloses any such analysis in favor of a historical analogical inquiry into the scope of the allowable burden on the Second Amendment right. Through that lens, we conclude that § 922(g)(8)’s ban on possession of firearms is an “outlier[] that our ancestors would never have accepted.” Id. Therefore, the statute is unconstitutional, and Rahimi’s conviction under that statute must be vacated.
REVERSED; CONVICTION VACATED.

While there are some cases where a full RO with loss of guns makes a lot of sense because some guys are violent dirtbags, it really does get abused overall.

It’s pretty much SOP for a contentious wife to seek one in a divorce to boost her position in settlement/custody hearings.

When I was younger, I personally watched a buddy’s crazy girlfriend settle an argument by hitting her own face on an oak tree in the yard and then allege that he beat her - he got cuffed and stuffed at work for that one. A few people including me who saw everything were able to provide witness statements about what happened and eventually get him out of the charges but it turned his life upside down for a while and he lost his job.

More recently, I got to watch the drama play out when my girlfriend’s ex-husband was trying to break up and move out of his crazy new girlfriends place. She called the cops after he was gone and claimed he tried to strangle her, despite having no evidence and no bruises to show. He got to spend the night in jail and now has a permanent RO with loss of gun rights. But it gets better… the GF then used the DV charge to blackmail him into coming back by promising to recant her accusations before trial if he didn’t leave her. The dumbass fell for it and moved back in with her.

If it holds it might make divorce proceedings a little fairer without some manipulative cunt and her unethical sleezeball lawyer able to extract concession out of fear of filing an RO claiming FEAR of domestic violence.

Am I the only one to notice that the federal statute they referenced and declared unconstitutional was coincidentally numbered "922"?

Can the feds continue enforcing the law as written?

Can this decision be cited in other 2A challenges outside the 5th?

Only applies to fifth circuit.  But yes, it's widely abused and a circumvention of due process.

They aren't going to be kind to anything that isn't pre-trial confinement.  If you are free to go, then a 2nd Amd. restriction is not viable.

I'm sure we all know guys that either got their shit taken or preemptively got rid of their guns due to divorce proceedings.

And have ROs ever really prevented violent nuts?

Yes! my biggest problems with restraining orders.   They generally prohibit a small georgraphical area or contact... but banning 2a is nationwide and is bullshit when no crime has occurred.

I’m perfectly ok with RO’s. In general.
As long as due process was observed. No frivolous bullshit. The investigation either produces reasonable evidence someone is in danger or no RO.
As we know it’s not going to stop the most hardened d bags from continuing their harassment or violence toward the victim but it does set a reasonable precedence to use later.

and that’s the problem. Reasonable due process. The fucking liberal shitbirds always over reach.

That would be great, there are a lot of people who get jacked up over this who aren’t beating their spouse, significant other, friend, person they are fucking, etc.

Problem with a RO is they take your guns before the hearing, they basically show up, show you the temp restraining order, then take your shit. Then you go to court at some point.
