Recently had occasion to help a friend obtain a TRO against a person who was cyberstalking him

The stalker and others , who had TRO’s against them, were informed they were barred from possessing or owning a firearm.

My 1st thought was “Wow. That’s boo chit. Not all stalking is violent nor will likely lead to a violent encounter”.

Pretty powerful stuff and wholly unnecessary.

IMO this is how large-scale confiscation will happen: make large swathes of the population “prohibited persons” — the sick beauty of this is that many people will cheer the removal of the right to be armed from a “terrible felon”.
