The Supreme Court of the United States has finally ruled on an issue
mentioned in the October 2015 syllabus, and first argued in February of
2016. The decision ruled that people convicted of any domestic abuse
crimes can no longer legally own firearms.
The efforts were taken in order to “close a dangerous loophole” that
allowed people convicted of “minor” domestic abuse to purchase and own
weapons legally. Now, the ban on felons owning firearms has been
extended to include people convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence.

This is a huge step forward for women’s rights, as more than 1/3 of
women who fall victim to homicide, fall victim at the hands of their
significant other. According to studies,
spouses are the murderers of women 38.6% of time, whereas, for murdered
men, it is only 6.3% of their partners who are responsible for their
deaths.
