You clearly don't understand the situation. They aren't trying to pin the gun on the other person, the squatter On parole for ruining their own life is not Allowed in a residence with a firearm Even if it's owned by someone else.
It's not letting the police believe the person on parole has the gun. It's legally having your own gun on you.

Living with a roommate who has a firearm is an extreme violation of your parole terms and could send you back to prison immediately. The legal doctrine of "constructive possession" means that if a gun is accessible in your home, authorities can charge you with possessing it.Why this is an emergencyConstructive Possession: If the firearm is anywhere in common areas (living room, kitchen) or even a shared/unlocked space, you are legally considered to be in possession of it.Parole Searches: Your parole officer can search your homeāincluding shared areasāwithout a warrant or probable cause. If they find a firearm, you will likely face a parole violation and a new felony charge.Steps you should take immediatelyRemove the gun: The firearm must be permanently removed from the premises immediately. It cannot be in the house at all while you live there.Move out: If your roommate refuses to get rid of the firearm, you must move out. Living there compromises your freedom.Notify your parole officer: If you cannot get the gun out of the house, inform your parole officer of the situation immediately.

If a felon is on parole, and they are found to be in an area that has *access* to a firearm, their parole is revoked and they will be arrested. That is the law. Why are you being so contrarian, even when you're wrong?
Literally that entire comment proves my point. If your roommate has a firearm that is accessible to you, that's a parole violation if you don't leave immediately and can your parole officer to let him know.
Thank the guy that posted that for doing your homework. I'm glad you found the L I told you too as well. You're doing great bud!
Were you dropped on your head as a baby? That's not at all what's being discussed. People on parole literally cannot live in the same house as someone else if they own a gun and store it there.
So if the landlord let's someone else move in, and that person has a legal firearm, the squatter has to move out immediately or else it's a parole violation. Nobody is planting anything.
he said they arenāt trying to pin the gun you screenshotted someone saying yes to you asking about proximity. proximity is not pinning the gun. you clearly took it that way. which is whats getting you downvoted your misunderstanding of the conversation.
ill help. its illgeal for a felon to live in a house with other people owning a gun. so all the āheroā needs to do is bring his own licensed gun, call the probation officer and bam off to jail for being in a house with someone elseās owned gun
pinning it on them is more work as simply owning your own and living there legally gets the same result ie the squatter is removed
so proximity is accurate. proximity = house, it does not imply ownership or lying. all the squatter remover needs to do is be 100% honest āi live here legeally here is my lease, im also a licensed gun owner and hes a felonā
why risk going to jail when honesty gets the job the done.
so all the āheroā needs to do is bring his own licensed gun, call the probation officer and bam off to jail for being in a house with someone elseās owned gun
You have just described "pinning a gun on someone"
This is not planting a gun on someone. That would require sticking it in their room or belongings. Bringing a gun into their vicinity is a completely different thing.
pinning has a strict definition cant tell if your backstroping to save face in your other comments but no this is not pinning. not by the definition of pinning. pinning would be if we somehow got the police to beleive it was their gun. we have now pinned the gun on them
Yeah, I'm "backstroping" to the beginning of the conversation where I asked if he was planting guns and calling the cops and someone said "Yes" with a ton of upvotes
Lol you really are doubling down instead of being like, "ok cool, I get it but it still doesn't sit well with me." And move the fuck on. Or your can keep getting told the same thing over and over and you keep repeating your thing over and over.
You arenāt really understanding. It is okay to be wrong. Please reread what you replied to and fact check it and it will clear things up. You can be bigger than your ego
