I don’t follow that serving a prison term squares everything and that the criminal gets a reset to zero.


I think the point is that if a convict can’t be trusted with firearms, he shouldn’t be released to a society where he will get them. But if he is released, he should have the right to defend his like like any human being.

I and others disagree. You make a false argument that a person is either completely trustworthy or a constant menace. Prison is punishment and protection. Parole and restrictions are protection. Violent felons don’t deserve to get full rights back. Special cases have due process to petition for their rights back on a case by case basis- the way it should be.

You are correct. The foolish think that the gun grabbers will stop once they get all the guns that they (the initial foolish) think should be grabbed. They are ignorant, and the product of a public education and socialist indoctrination. They neither understand the Constitution, nor will the wolves be any more merciful when they dine upon the trash they use, then toss aside.

The U.S. has the largest prison population in the world by many fold. The ignorant don’t realize that the “criminal justice” system went from criminal justice to racketeering cash cow, decades ago.

BTW we have 5% of the World’s population, and 25% of the World’s prison population. 1 in 100 adults are in prison, that’s ridiculous.
