To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit the sale or other disposition of any firearm or ammunition to any person who has been convicted of a violent misdemeanor, and for other purposes. [More]
It's the "other purposes" we need to focus on.
I can see a lot of people of limited wherewithal who didn't do anything wrong getting caught up in a situation where a prosecutor threatens them with more charges unless they take a plea deal.
The bad news is John Wayne is out.
The good news is, Real Man is in (assuming he doesn't just p!$$ himself and cry).
GovTrack doesn't list this yet, so I can't see their prognosis, which I would guess will end up being around 2%. One real deficiency that the website has that needs to be addressed: Their "Issue Area" dropdown menu doesn't have a "Guns" category.
