Should DUI be able to vote?

Well, in many, if not most, states this wait period is true for handguns, but hunting/target rifles and shotgun purchases, in many places, do not require anything but the ability to pay, they are cash and carry. And to be honest, I see little reason that this should change.
A person who is obviously drunk at the time - should not be allowed to walk out of a gun dealer with any kind of gun.
I can't believe that's even a point of debate for any sane person.

I got a dui many years ago. It scared the hell out of me. As well as about 6k
After completing probation I bought a breathalizer and started testing myself at home regularly. I know my limits.
If you were smart, you'd just stop drinking. I've never been drunk in my life and haven't even touched booze except for a little when i was a dumb teen.

Its really none of your concern what other people do in their personal lives with legal substances.

HAHAHA. Gramps just said drunk driving should be legal.

Agreed. As far as I'm concerned, however, that is on the seller. Any merchant has the ability to refuse to sell their products to anyone they choose for whatever reason they want. I would think it irresponsible for any seller to sell a firearm (or any other weapon) to anyone who was obviously inebriated, or emotionally upset. Likewise if they sell to such an individual and injuries occur due to such a sale, the merchant should bear a part of the responsibility for that injury.
Of course. Hell - People are routinely denied gun rights for NON-violent drug crimes like a 20 year old pot possession conviction. DUI is an extremely violent drug crime and evidence the criminal is a psychopath with no concern for the lives of others.
Of course not. DUI is still a misdemeanor. It has nothing to do with if you are a person that would be dangerous with a gun.
However, I don't think pot should be illegal, so your argument is doubly wrong.
Crime is crime?Of course. Hell - People are routinely denied gun rights for NON-violent drug crimes like a 20 year old pot possession conviction. DUI is an extremely violent drug crime and evidence the criminal is a psychopath with no concern for the lives of others.

Negged for ass-holism

Thanks but if being an asshole deserves neg rep I wouldn't have any
Yes, it should be.
It means neglect, which is what we can't have gun owners be doing.
I didn't say they should not be punished the first time - I say they should be severely punished the second time. I knew of a old boy down in Texas who got 5, DUI's - his last plea offer was 35, years. I think they should have given him life the third time!I
Drunk drivers are a direct threat to the innocent, and should face serious punishment on the second offence!
Why second offense?. I say throw the book at these psychos right from the start.

If a bartender can be required to cut you off, then a gun dealer should be too.
That's MHO anyway - I can't imagine that would ruffle feathers, but apparently it does. We don't have such a law on the books ...

I can understand the general sentiment here. I also had a DUI 2 years ago and its was certainly a turning point in my life. If I go out and have more than 2 I make sure I'm out with someone and make sure they drive. And I have 0 problems w/ being a DD these days.
What happened to me is I went through ARD, had a 1 month suspension, and 6 month probation. After the 6 month probation the DUI was wiped from my record.
If people feel that I don't deserve to own a firearm, so be it.
