To clarify, it is illegal for her to own any type of handgun because she has a domestic violence misdemeanor on her record. How do we know this? She told us she had that conviction (and that's where she met the bum).
Under the Gun Control Act of 1968, it is a violation of FEDERAL law for someone who has a domestic violence rap to own a handgun. The DV thing added in 1996 by the Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban, or "Lautenberg Amendment.")
So yeah, Miss Sybil the Internet Badass, you need to get that gun out of your house. Because if we really wanted to, we could have the feds at your door for that one.
