I’ve been performing a deep dive into my state firearms law with respect to carry permits, and what are disqualifiers for someone to obtain and retain a firearm under state and federal law.

There is absolutley no question in my mind that the minimum requirements and preconditions necessary to purchase, own, and further continue to lawfully carry a firearm should also apply practically verbatim when applied to any right to vote.

Either that, or how about make purchasing a firearm as easy as voting? No ID, no questions asked, and buy as many guns as you want. How’s that sound?

FOR EXAMPLE, a finding of what’s called domestic abuse against spouse or child results in revocation of a carry permit and the right to own a firearm. Basically any conviction that results in a prison sentence longer than a year in jail (felony) will do this.

It would have quite the effect, in a positive way I think. Voting in aggregate is certainly far more dangerous than firearms overall. If a person can’t be trusted with a firearm, they surely should not be voting, and the reverse is true as well.

Those who can’t handle their affairs, mentally incompetent. They aren’t allowed to buy or sell real estate. They were not allowed to vote in years past, for obvious reasons.

Any MISDEMEANOR domestic violence conviction will bar you from firearms for life.
That or a dishonorable discharge are the two conditions for which there is no remedy.
Felons can petition to restore their rights in most states.
