You don't get to equate those two things, they are not similar and your strawman is destroyed.

Why can't I equate the 2? In a legal setting it appears voluntary doesn't mean acting of one's own free will and infringe doesn't mean limiting or encroaching on.

Same goes with the alleged sexual assault and threats.

Who says he will not be now that the Federal charges are done?

The greatest concern was the firearms charge so the other stuff really isn't that big of a deal.

The state stuff adds up to more years in jail then the firearms charge.

And now you're reading the state attorney's mind too...

So? That isn't as interesting as a chance to link "gun" and "crime" in the same sentence. Kind of like Project Exile started in Virginia back in the 90's. Robbing a store wasn't of much interest to anyone unless the perp had a firearm in them.
