Which of your other constitutional rights can be lost?

I've always thought that it must be unconstitutional for an American Citizen to lose a constitutionally protected right for what amounts to a low level misdemeanor in most jurisdictions. If the offense is serious enough, convict them on a felony. I have no problem with felons not owning guns. But most of these misdemeanor domestic violence conviction amount to little more than he said / she said.

Can you imagine the outcry if the government passed a law saying that you lose your right to practice your religion if you are convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence, on the grounds that some religions teach that women should submit to men? Or for that matter, your freedom of speech, right to vote etc.

Nobody who isn’t actively incarcerated should be prevented from owning a firearm regardless of what they were convicted of. If they can’t be trusted to live a law-abiding life then either incarcerate or kill them.
