That is a fucking masterpiece.
A U.S. appeals court on Thursday declared unconstitutional a federal law making it a crime for people under domestic violence restraining orders to own firearms.

Australia’s gun laws still don’t meet standards agreed 27 years ago: Gun Control Australia
Gun Control Australia says more needs to be done to tighten the nation’s firearms laws after state and territory leaders agreed to explore options to create a national gun ownership register.
State and territory leaders on Friday agreed to work towards a national firearms register to help police tackle gun violence. The December shooting of two young constables in Queensland has renewed the push for a national register.
But Gun Control Australia has released a statement saying states and territories are still not compliant with a national firearms agreement agreed on in the wake of the 1997 Port Arthur massacre:
Our gun laws still don’t meet standards agreed 27 years ago.
National Cabinet must now quickly move to see all agreed safety measures implemented to protect Australian communities and police from gun violence.
The shadowy gun lobby with its undue influence in Australian politics has successfully picked-off individual states and territories over time, weakening the agreement.
