How many of you liberals even know what a felony is?

[NoTeaPartyPleez]

Felony - any crime where the maximum incarceration is a year or more in prison

Misdemeanor - any crime where the maximum incarceration is less than a year

Violation - any crime punishable only by a fine. No incarceration


So as you can see, it takes very little to qualify as a felony. Pete Rose and Martha Stewart are felons! Thousands of other felons in america committed a crime so minor they got straight probation with no prison time. This liberal idea of denying constitutional rights to felons needs to be re-examined.

That's not true. At least not in Pennsylvania. You can be incarcerated for a Misdemeanor of the 1st degree for a maximum 5 years, a M2 for 2 years, and a M3 for 1 year.

Felonies of the 3rd start with a maximum of 7 years, F2 a maximum of 10, and F1 10+

It's the legislator that determines what charge is what grading.

To pretend as if it's the same throughout the nation isn't correct.

So we know of at least one rightwingnut who doesn't know the difference, either.

Especially considering DWI is a felony in several states.

Which should prevent him or her from getting a CC permit. If they don't have enough good judgement to not drive drunk then they don't have enough to carry a deadly weapon.

If they have a felony conviction, they can't have a gun period. That's why DUI should be made an automatic felony. That would disarm millions of psycho americans who can't be trusted with guns, or cars for that matter. Time to stop coddling these killers on the highways.

Should Cheney own a gun? He has murdered millions and can't tell the difference between a duck and a man.

Potential jail time is not the only determining factor of a felony versus a misdemeanor. For example, in Massachusetts certain misdemeanors carry a maximum jail sentence of 30 months.

The state legislature sets the severity of the crime in the bill that enacts the law.

This is not true.

Most states have a process with which felony convictions may be expunged and voting/gun ownership rights restored.

Worry about yourself not knowing what a felony is!

There are always exceptions you nitwit but the rules i gave are true 99.9% of the time in the states and as far as the feds are concerned they're true 100%. If you are ever convicted of a crime where the maximum possible penalty is a year or more, then the feds say you have no gun rights. !!!

Most states have a process with which felony convictioms may be expunged and voting/gun ownership rights restored.

Yes - if you pay a big enough bribe - and for federal offenders there is no recourse outside of a presidential pardon.

Which makes this statement of yours untrue:

If they have a felony conviction, they can't have a gun period.

Uhhhhhhhhhh.....it was Florida Republicans who made every effort to deny felons the right-to-vote, when Lil' Dumbya Bush ran for President.

Ya' got any actual-instances where you insist this is a liberal-tactic???​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Laws denying RKBA to felons are also racist since so many blacks have BS felonies for mere drug possession. Only drug crime that should be a felony is drunk driving but whites do that so they get misdemeanors!

Gimme a break!!

You (actually) believe Liberals are great-defenders of the present drug-laws????

One thing is sure that there are more sissies in the left wing who don't know the difference between a shotgun and a shot glass.

You kiddin'??!!!!

The combination (of those-two) has done MORE to thin-out the redneck-population, than ANYTHING we could possibly do!!!!!!

Prison is strictly for punishment rather than rehabilitation. As for those who have served their time, it is nearly impossible for them to find a job once they do get out. Employers just don't want to hire them, so they end up getting into trouble again. This is why we see so many who go in and out of prison for their entire lives. It's a shame, because most of these people could be productive citizens and have meaningful lives.

You can't be productive when you can't read and most blacks can't. Even if they had applied themselves in school they could not have become literate. They don't have the brains.

Truly - blacks are the white man's burden.

You are vile little child aren't you?

And who the heck are you to complain about the literacy of others when you keep reading things into the law that don't exist and can't understand anyone who had the audacity to disagree with you.

I'm a commercial truck driver. What is a infraction to some drivers is a misdemeanor for me. ie not fastening my seat belt is a misdemeanor.

Threads like this are a mystery to me, because it's hard to believe the person who wrote it could be that stupid and isn't just saying something stupid for some reason.

Driving a 60 ton truck endangers other drivers a lot more than driving a 2000 pound car. Penalties for your reckless driving should be greater. And don't tell not buckling up engangers only yourself. If you lose control of your truck i want you to have seat belt on to keep you in place so you can regain control. THINK
