Tie the two together and the RAT states wont likely be looking to let felons vote to bump up their voter base. No way would they trust their felons to own guns. That would kill the issue dead in it's tracks in liberal states.
Conservative states may very well have the brains to give both rights back to those felons that pose no threat to society.
On another thread, someone posted an article with a parallel argument involving voter photo ID.
If someone’s right to vote is being infringed by having to show an official ID in order to vote,
isn’t someone’s Constitutional 2nd Amendment right being violated by the ATF requirement to show photo ID to purchase a firearm?
