Which of the following individuals is prohibited from possessing a firearm in Alaska?

An individual convicted of a felony
A non-resident tourist
A person with a medical marijuana card
A person who has received a traffic ticket

The correct answer is: An individual convicted of a felony

An individual convicted of a felony is prohibited from possessing a firearm in Alaska due to federal and state laws. Felons lose their right to possess firearms as a consequence of their criminal record. This restriction is put in place to help ensure public safety and prevent individuals with violent criminal histories from having access to firearms. The other options are not correct because: - A non-resident tourist can legally possess a firearm in Alaska as long as they comply with the state's regulations for non-residents. - Possessing a medical marijuana card does not automatically prohibit a person from possessing a firearm in Alaska. - Receiving a traffic ticket does not disqualify a person from possessing a firearm under Alaska law.
