Felons who've served their complete sentence should have their voting rights restored. They've paid their debt to society and this helps reintegrate them to useful citizenship.

Do you also recommend that felons who've done their time also have their 2nd Amendment rights restored? If so, why? And -- more importantly -- if not, why?

Sorry...I don't believe that prison rehabilitates. And I'm not about to leave the future of this nation in the hands of people who have demonstrated that they cannot behave responsibly in a civilized society.
