WASHINGTON (TND) — A pair of controversial court rulings permit some non-violent felons and illegal migrants to own a firearm. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled people convicted of non-violent crimes who have finished their prison sentence are allowed to own guns. Steven Duarte is at the center of this ruling out of California. He has five prior non-violent state criminal convictions and then was convicted for tossing a handgun out of a moving car.
