Re: Gun rights for a Felon?

You think that the law is fair and want to keep it the way it is, and that is OK.

Many people believe that they law is unfair and maybe even unconstitutional and many people ARE in fact working to change it by supporting organizations like the NRA the TSRA and maybe even GOA, and by voting for officials who are strong on the RKBA.

Your argument that if people disagree with the current law then those people are condoning criminal behavior is inherently false. In fact I honestly doubt that most of the people on this forum would support lighter penalties for felony violations, however those same people believe strongly that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Most people on this forum also likely believe in redemption, and that God can change a person's heart and that people can change their ways.

The world we live in is not black and white, and I think that the laws should be designed with some consideration for the grey areas.
