"For that, he was convicted of resisting arrest, carrying a concealed weapon, and driving after revocation. The automatic weapon possession was dismissed.

One report said Routh had multiple felony convictions for stolen goods from 1997 to 2010, though Markenzy Lapointe, the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, said in a briefing Monday that Routh’s past felony convictions were only in 2002 and 2010."

"As difficult as it is to discern a pattern to his political views, it’s blindingly easy to discern why Routh shouldn’t have been able to get a gun. In April 2002, he was charged with having an explosive device. Just prior to his December 2002 conviction for that offense, he barricaded himself inside his business, along with a fully automatic machine gun, in a standoff with police for hours."
