Isn't it a felony for a felon to be in possession of a gun? I'm wondering if he's embellishing the story a bit for more sympathy, or if there is just a loophole that prevents police from jumping on something like that. Or if it's something else entirely...
Something very few people know: last year over the summer an off balance individual threatened to kill me and my family. He wasn’t very stealthy about it - he called our office number, sent me emails and even posted threats on his blog, so it wasn’t hard to determine who he was.

He then goes on to state "And the police were helpful but couldn’t do much based on the threats until he acted."
