That’s nice, but it doesn’t address the challenge to your reasoning, which is that we either kill all felons or restore everything back to them after they serve their sentence, right NOW you want to allow that felony child molester to get ALL of his previous rights back, including the vote and his child care license.
We can’t hold everyone for life, nor kill everyone, so we do what we can, there is no reason to say that being busted for felonies can’t affect you negatively for the rest of your life, and keep you from some jobs, or voting, military service, FBI work, day care work, etc.
Used to be that when the time was served, even pistols were returned to the former felon.
The one that made the change has to justify it.
