More details to this question:
I am going to get my license to carry a gun but my boyfriend’s dad is living with us. He is on probation. My room door is always closed and locked with key. My weapons are locked up (combination or key). I want to keep my rights but I don’t want to cause trouble for my boyfriend’s dad. I feel like just because he's on probation my rights as an American are limited and that’s not fair.

I would not worry about it. He can not have possession of a firearm under the circumstances you describe. Possession is care, custody and control. He lacks all of those in your situation. He will be fine unless he decides to break into your room and your safe and gain access to the weapon.
