Should they be able to own guns?
I ask because them being able to vote is all the rage now.
Shouldn't we be consistent in policy? Meaning all rights restored?
Good answer gatorShould they be able to own guns?

Yes.
Once they have served their debt to society they should be given full rights back.
If they cannot be trusted with those rights, then they should not be let out of prison.
Umm they are voting on public safety. And many other things that impact everyone.I don't really know, seems something that you need to look at in a case by case bases.
I don't see how you can universally state that a felon should have his rights fully restored.
You give the example of guns, I'll give the examples of phedophiles. Should someone convicted of something like that be allowed to own a daycare center for instance. I would argue it's a safety issue to not allow it.
Same can be said for gun ownership. Someone with a history of violence no. A guy jailed for a non-violent crime... Probably. The thing is voting has no public safety questions. Gun ownership does.
Restoring rights is good. I'm not for rights being restored for child pedophiles, rapists, or murderers though.

So they should only lose rights that relate to the crime?o bullshit...they should be allowed to own guns.....mfers only if the og crime was not with a gun etc and so forth....i have total issues with returning guns to people who use them to harm others

okay here we go.....lets think about this mdk if you make a life sentence for those crimes....exp murder i agree there....then why would the prep kept a child or rape victim alive... ???
Indeed. I probably should have clarified. Some think parole isnt part if a sentence lolShould they be able to own guns?

It would be the WHOLE sentence, including any parole or post release supervision. Only then could they be given full rights back.
