Court Rules Those Convicted Of Nonviolent Misdemeanors Retain 2A Rights

Bryan Range had been denied his right to keep and bear arms for nearly 30 years. But on December 23, the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals reaffirmed its earlier ruling that a person who commits a “nonviolent, nondangerous misdemeanor” and hasn’t been incarcerated cannot be deprived of his or her Second Amendment rights.
