To: Scotsman will be Free

This is a tricky one, the government is criminalizing lots of conduct........Could one reason be to brand people with felony convictions so they can’t own firearms........Maybe felons should still be allowed to bear arms......Slippery slope

I guess it depends on the crime. Violent felons should not be rearmed as molon labbie has pointed out.

shall not be infringed...

means just that.

if felons are released into society after serving their “time”, they have the unalienable right to keep and bear arms.

if society is afraid they will cause more harm, then keep them locked up longer.

i believe in the second amendment as written and shall not be infringed means everyone.
