I would have to disagree. I did a stretch in prison but luckily once I was done with my parole my father worked tirelessly and called in a few markers and got me a full pardon. I got ALL of my rights restored. But I honestly feel that that the right to vote and right to bear arms are so precious that they should not be denied to anyone. Once a man is done with his sentence and has met the conditions of his parole he should no longer be denied the rights bestowed on all Americans.

Either the price has been paid or it hasn't, but once it is paid then all rights should be automatically restored.
