There’s a whole lot of “I support the Second Amendment, but...” going on in this thread, whether those particular words have been said or not, and truth be told, those saying it probably don’t even realize it.
For better or worse, I cannot find the “unless convicted of a felony” exception to the restrictions on government power imposed by the Bill of Rights.
If you claim to be a Constitutionalist, there’s no constitutional mechanism by which a person is denied their Rights unless they pay a fee to have them restored.
I was coming back to type something along these lines. Excellent point!!
