Post: fedral restoration of rights

Posted by Elmer on 5/29/08
Does anyone know of any latest developments on a fedral level for restoring rights? I understand ATF is no longer holding hearings, and since the Supreme Court ruled against in the LaMar Bean case local federal district courts cannot be used as an avenue for appeal for ATF's denial to hear. It's really nonsense that persons who do not pose a threat or danger to society should be put into a catagory with those that do. After all the intent of Congress was to prevent these dangerous individuals from possessing firearms uless rehabilitated. One attorney I recently talked to says in new sentencing guidelines it can be deterimined at sentencing if 2nd ammendment rights would be effected for each individual case, depending on circumstances. However he states this is not retroactive. He is looking into the new law now. If I find out anything I'll be sure to pass it along. But if anyone knows of any methods for retoration I'd like to hear it. Sincerely Elmer
