It does.

People also lie to get DV orders. Especially if they are fighting for custody in a divorce.

This is why gynosocieties are horrible. And we live in one. Women lie about things all the time because they suffer no consequences for it.

In biblical times if you lied about someone and it was disco ered, the liar got the max punishment for the crime they tried to frame the innocent person for.

Needs to go back to this for all liars.

Men lie all the time too!

I think the biblical two parent design is the ideal and that we should forbear much to keep it solid. But sometimes even the Bible allows for divorce (adultery, attempted murder) and sometimes moms (or dads) get abandoned.
Oh, and widowed.

So it’s rather cruel to just slap single moms around as a single group.

Restate the problem.

Perpetrator first disarms their victim by getting a fraudulent restraining order.

THEN, they attack their victim.

A long time ago I had a stalker. We never called law enforcement. He never bothered me again.

Imagine the lawsuits by people who had firearms taken away due to angry ex wife during divorce proceedings.

Are people under a “domestic violence restraining order” somehow ineligible to servce in the militia?

I don’t think this is a good case or will have a good outcome for us. As I read about this earlier, I really suspect that Supreme Court, which apparently reviewed this in conference twice, chose to hear it because of the three liberals, maybe as consolation for the rulings this week. Further, I bet they’ll use this to lay out some limits on the second amendment.

Simple: If you use your gun to intimidate, threaten, injure or kill other than in self-defense, you should be punished appropriately. It’s no one’s business what type or how many you own as long as you behave yourself.

But merely owning one makes you intimidating and threatening in the feeble minds of snowflake libs, I guess. Look for more “swatting”.

The government wants us all to be guilty of something so we are no longer citizens that have rights.

“There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.” ― Ayn Rand

Hold everyone to the same standard. I can live with that.

It’s a complete deprivation of rights without due process.

That's the basis for overturning it all. If the right to bear arms is a civil right, the it cannot be infringed by a judge's whim.

The following people can be rightly deprived of their right to keep and bear arms.

People who are institutionalize whether for reasons of crime or reasons of mental or emotional inability.

People who are in "half way" houses.

People on early release.

People who are on probation.

No one else.
