1Opinion of the Court

JANE B. STRANCH, Circuit Judge.

Desmond Camp pled guilty to Hobbs Act robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951 (a) ; using a firearm during a crime of violence, in violation of 18 U.S.C § 924(c) ; and being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)(1).
