I am not surprised at the amount of misinformation both in the article and in the decision. U.S. v. hayes is about a state law that did not define an element of misdemeanor assault, that being the domestic household part. This abhorent decision has now made it possible to remove the 2nd Amendment rights of anyone accused of misdemeanor assault, whether it's between boyfriend/girlfriend, brother/sister, brother/brother, or roommates of all genders, just so long as both participants in the assault lived in the same household.
What a tremendously atrocious decision.
