It's all unconstitutional kabuki anyway.

  1. Setting aside, for the moment, the unconstitutional prior restrain of preemptively-prove-your-innocence checks; it appears from a search on US Code that to be a "fugitive" under 18 USC 922, once has to have actively _fled_ when a warrant is issued. How often do you hear of traffic stops where the person discovers there's a warrant that he didn't even know about? For that matter, a federal court found it unconstitutional for for Michigan to deny welfare benefits to people with felony warrants unless they are actually fugitives.

    So... same thing for 2nd Amendment rights. For once the DOJ did something half right (the other half being the whole prior restraint bit).
