Honor the constitution and let a well-armed citizenry keep the number of felons down. The Founders weren't dummies.
You bet. The minute you deny felons, the power elite will finger us all as felons.
Plus, you deny the felon the right to defend himself.
People need to know this too, if you get charged with something or in any way get tangled up in the legal system, get a lawyer, if you don’t think he/she is doing a good job, fire them and get another.
Do not let your kids negotiate the legal system by themselves, it is far too dangerous and the effects are long lasting.
I'm going to look up that paragraph from Atlas Shrugged which states it that way!
